Attracting and retaining talent in the public sector
Before the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak technology, demographic and social changes were making it increasingly difficult for the public sector to attract and retain talent. This was due to:
- low unemployment rates
- skills shortages
- digital transformation
- pressure on accessing emerging talent
Whilst the full impact of COVID-19 on the employment landscape is not yet clear, it is likely to have permanently disrupted the labour market in many ways. The public sector may increasingly be seen as an attractive and safe place to work. However, you will still need to work hard to recruit and retain the right people.
In these uncertain times, having a structured and responsive recruitment strategy, alongside a well planned programme to upskill your existing workforce and attract new talent, will ensure you are agile and resilient.
