Why is it important to become an employer of choice?
We are working in a serious talent shortage, from nurses to drivers, to engineers, to chefs you name the profession good people are VERY hard to find.
This is going to become more difficult. We are at the lowest level of unemployment we have ever had in the UK since 1971 and because of BREXIT we are losing our migrant workforce slowly and steadily.
At any one point, there are 770k job vacancies in the UK each month.
Of the 2.2 million EU workers that work here if we send those that have been with us less than 5 years back home (this is being muted by government as we speak) that leaves us with 700k EU workers in the UK, even if every single one of those 1.4 million unemployed in the UK get a job, and honestly if they could/wanted to work they most likely would be by now. You do the maths we are seriously in a talent deficit, not enough people to go around.
SO, and it’s a big so, you need to become better than your competitors in terms of offering. I’m not saying that we need to be a GOOGLE but thing about what makes them special and why people want to work for them and it’s not just about the fact that they are household names.
Things to think about that will set you apart from the rest and we aren’t talking monetary benefits here either
Think outside the box what makes you happy at work?
