HR trends – potential threats
Since January 2020, Career Angels has delivered 210 trainings (incl. webinars and in-person lectures), for 10,409 people working across various industries. Before, during and after these sessions, we talk with the involved stakeholders and participants. Additionally, we constantly monitor the job market and discuss major events with experienced HR professionals and C-level executives to stay up to date with the newest trends.
We know that new trends can be: exciting, modern, revolutionary, evolutionary… but are they always as positive and harmless as they seem? What are the potential threats?
CV-19 has accelerated many trends, including (or especially!) those related to HR and recruitment. Companies that want to hire valuable candidates – who don’t quit after 3 months – have to make sure they keep up with the newest trends. What’s even more important: they need to implement new strategies the right way.
Trends that are introduced too fast and/or by the wrong department will backfire by e.g.:
- generating additional costs
- negative employer branding
- losing valuable candidates
- longer recruitment processes
- low(er) candidate experience
