Trends of 2015 – The Changing Face of Recruitment

452655985With 2014 behind us, it is the time to have a sneak peek at what can be the coming recruitment trends in 2015!

It’s expected that 2015 will witness several major changes in the recruiting sector with the changing mindset of potential candidates. Here are the four trends that can be witnessed in the coming year in recruitment industry.

1. Widening skills gap means companies pump money into their recruitment budgets. With thousands of opportunities available each year, organizations are eager to search out the right and most talented candidates. The major problem is the gap between the skills required and the skill sets applicants have. Institutions must work hard to align their courses with what is required in the companies, or else the gap of skills will keep widening and encouraging companies to spend more into their recruiting budgets.

2) Innovative HR software will change the face of recruitment. There are numerous online tools offering great and effective solutions to organizations seeking to upgrade their recruiting. In the coming year, improved HR technology will remain a trend. With the staffing market of $416 billion globally, and with so much money investing in the system, the recruiting segment is expected to wear a different look as companies are looking for better solutions. The upcoming trend that is taking the market into its stride is the concept of crowdsourced recruiting, in which companies will utilize the power of the networks of experts to offer the right talents to their clients.

3) Companies will leverage mobile hiring tools. With the growing ubiquitousness of mobile phones, an estimated 83 percent of job seekers use their mobile phone to search for job openings. Still, only 20 percent of Fortune 500 companies have mobile-friendly career sites. But this trend is going to change and more and more applications will be submitted via mobile phones. Savvy companies will understand this trend and shift some of their focus to mobile recruiting.

4) Succession planning may influence recruiting. Many boomers hold key positions in their respective firms, and their retirements will surely impact the functioning of their companies, especially taking into account the skills gap stated above. Companies will increase their recruitment budgets as younger staff members will be promoted to fill the key positions and their desks will remain vacant for some time.

There are several trends that are taking shape and expected to impact the overall recruitment system and industry this year. Keeping pace with such trends can help recruiters to stay in the forefront.

    Thanks for sharing these trends expected in recruiting in 2015. These days the recruiters will have even higher budgets and higher recruitment. The social network will be a very important factor for  gaining importance to attract & promote the talent specially in the middle east region. This article will help us understand about these trends.. http://blog.bayt.com/2015/02/top-12-mena-recruitment-trends-we-expect-in-2015/

  23. “Still, only 20 percent of Fortune 500 companies have mobile-friendly career sites.”
    Clearly there is a huge discrepancy here! Some people’s phones are faster than their computer so of course they are going to do their job searching from their mobile device. You need to be where your audience is and if that means mobile than so be it!
