Monitor Emerging Skills
Anticipate future gaps through workforce planning to determine which occupations and skills you will need in the future. Establish internal and external pipelines to meet these needs and focus on establishing relationships with passive candidates who have these skills but aren’t looking for a new job yet.
- Identify which skills are emerging and hard-to-find in the industry that might not be in-demand by the organization yet but will become critical soon. Then determine the most efficient method to acquire these competencies.
- Build a talent community of engaged and skilled prospects by maintaining a career page on your website where candidates can share their resumes, contact information, and career interests. It’s a great way to capture the enthusiasm a candidate has for your company, document their skills and interests, and widen your pipeline of passive candidates who can be called upon when a future opportunity emerges.
