The global talent shortage, which is at its most severe in almost two decades, is exacerbated by outdated hiring practices that emphasize degrees and resumes over skills. Traditional hiring approaches restrict qualified candidates and skilled workers from opportunities even if they possess the necessary skills and experience.

That is where skills-first hiring approach comes in—designed to broaden access to opportunities for top talent, improve retention rates, and tap into previously overlooked talent pools. It focuses on candidates’ skills and competencies and provides a more effective way to combat talent shortages, enhance talent solutions, and unlock an organization’s potential.
