Talener October Newsletter
It was a roller coaster third quarter in staffing. Summer holidays, back-to-school routines, and cautious hiring plans made for three very quiet months. I am certainly happy to put the quarter in the rear view mirror. As we situate ourselves firmly in Q4, I am seeing several trends indicative of a real talent shortage, despite the current "employers' market". Tech unemployment fell to its lowest point in September at 2.5%. Companies have been interviewing more candidates but making fewer hires. They aren’t finding exactly what they want for the price that they are willing to pay. To address this issue, I am encouraging our clients to adopt a try-before-you-buy option through temp-to-perm hiring. As we speed through Q4, I look forward to offering new hiring solutions in 2025!
Until then… Let’s Go Yankees!

Are tech tests the right interviewing solution for seasoned talent?
Job seekers with decades of technical experience and a proven track record of successful projects are taking academic-style tech tests. Should they need to do them at this level? Or, should companies approach tech tests differently for veteran talent?
