Industry Trends
Agile recruiting is becoming an increasingly popular approach is today’s fast-paced business world. Explore how the agile methodology (think embracing change and delivering value) is used in recruitment, as well as tips and strategies for implementing agile recruitment at your organization.
Hiring Trends
Over the last three years, we’ve seen a full paradigm shift in a worker’s expectations from a job and their potential employer. This is in part due to the shifts that COVID-19 and related work requirements demanded. Many of those expectations have stuck meaning that some workers may never want to return to office.
However, businesses' expectations have changed too. Many employers expect workers to come into the office, and they’re doing so with tighter budgets. We see this gap in expectations playing out in the job market.
In the first quarter of 2022, more than 35 percent (12,285) of all job openings processed by Insight Global were for fully remote positions. That number dropped to around 18 percent (6,673) in the first quarter of 2023
Data from Indeed showed us that in the first week of May, only 12 percent of all jobs posted were for remote positions. However, 55 percent of all job applications went to those remote positions.
