Talent matchmaking
Finding and hiring the best talent out there, could give you that decisive competitive edge. Then again: that’s exactly what the competition also thinks. The race for talent has intensified, as turbulence hit labor markets everywhere and as workers revised where, how, and why they want to work. Especially millennials are hard to target and convince to come work for you. How to persuade them?
