Today’s job market is consistently evolving across all industries, and finding the right talent to support your team is paramount. Sam Funt, Senior Account Manager at Creative Circle, offers valuable insights on adapting to the changing landscape, and urges hiring managers to be more flexible when looking for talent.
Here are three pieces of advice to maximize your talent pool and avoid putting candidates in boxes:
- Don’t overly rely on traditional hiring methods. Instead of focusing on candidates’ years of experience, focus on the actual experience and skills they bring to the table.
- Don’t make assumptions. This can include making assumptions about someone’s work ethic, temperament, or ability to assimilate into a team based on age, young or old.
- Do consider hybrid work. Does the candidate actually need to be on-site five days a week, or can they work a hybrid schedule?
