Wage Gains Impact Recruiting
Generation Z is smaller than the Millennial generation. The law of supply and demand tells us it will cost more to hire and keep the workers in short supply. The Wall Street Journal confirms the trend this week in an article titled “Young Workers Rake in Biggest Wage Gains in Tight Labor Market.”
Don’t be trapped by trying to compete with wages alone. Last week we shared survey information showing that hybrid work arrangements are also valuable in today’s market. Before recruiting, you must answer the question, “Why would a person want to work here?” The answer shows what you sell to these rare and picky job candidates. Is your offer likely to stand out when the candidate sees the job advertisement?
Younger candidates don’t have the experience and knowledge you need. Many organizations are offering training, another attractive benefit for job candidates. Before hiring, use an aptitude assessment to ensure candidates are well-fit to learn and perform the job. It is too expensive to train individuals not inclined to do the job well.
Use the best tools to thrive. JobMatch Assessment provides you tools to lead with confidence. You can discover who has the aptitude for your jobs and maintain a strong culture by keeping everyone connected. We can help you develop the leaders and teams you need to grow.
Improve your hiring, culture, leadership, and productivity. Our assessments and surveys are world-class and statistically sound. Contact us, share your concerns, and see how we can help you. No charge, no obligation.

For months we have been sharing articles on how the workforce has dramatically changed since the pandemic started. Much of the change, like working-at-home, was expected. Covid hastened its arrival, and now we struggle to adjust quickly enough to create a retention culture. Keeping talent has become the number one issue, so much so that we all understand the term “The Great Resignation.”
Our publisher, Wiley, surveyed 4,500 working professionals last July. These workers are reporting higher levels of stress than ever before. You probably know professionals who have quit a job, even if they don’t have a new job lined up. We see a rash of career switching. The study and findings to help you increase retention are below. Click the “Keep Your People: How to Navigate the Great Resignation” banner.
The pandemic hastened the acceptance of technologies that allow hybrid work. Hybrid work is attractive to some and isolating for others. Now, we must leverage technology to build culture, increase belonging and enhance the hybrid experience for both types of people.
No matter where your people are working or what team they are on today, they can access our powerful interactive platform, Catalyst™. The system helps participants compare DiSC styles and access tips for working together on an ad-hoc basis. Who are you working with today? Imagine knowing their strengths, desires, and what stresses them out.
