Attracting, hiring and retaining top talent has proven to be a challenge – especially in the last six months of 2022, as volatile market conditions and labor law updates have resulted in significant shifts in the hiring landscape this year. These include:
• Transparency: Several states in the US and UK have or will have laws requiring companies to disclose or publish salary ranges. By increasing pay transparency, further progress could be made in closing pay gaps between underrepresented candidates and their white male counterparts.
• Equity: Mass layoffs have disproportionately hit HR/People and DEI teams and threaten to undo years of progress towards more equitable corporate cultures and hiring practices.
• Efficiency: Inefficient hiring processes, riddled with incoherent steps and layoffs, have long led to candidate churn and threatened recruitment pipelines for years. With companies now delaying or hiring, this could further negatively impact talent acquisition processes as top talent that is still wanted is now being overlooked. Hiring pipelines and a company’s employer brand are still at risk in 2023.
“The year 2022 has seen rapid changes in the workplace – from terminations and employee burnout to mass layoffs and hiring freezes,” said Josh Brenner, CEO of Hired. “Amidst all of this, the data shows that the tech talent market is still incredibly strong for companies that are actively growing and hiring. It is critical that these companies remain committed to fair, efficient and transparent hiring practices during this ever-expanding time. changing macro environment.
“This year an increasing number of companies from industries such as healthcare, wellness, retail and media have made the list. We were encouraged that technology companies that don’t typically appear on standard tech rankings were recognized this year on our 2022 list, including Yum! Brands, Optum, and Superior.”
