Technology is dramatically impacting how companies attract, recruit, and hire employees. As baby boomers retire, companies face a shortage of skilled workers and a need for employees with new technical skills. Recruiting processes are often inefficient and ineffective at identifying the best candidates. However, technologies like social media, online assessments, and video interviewing can help companies build talent pipelines, screen more candidates, and improve hiring. Companies must re-evaluate their recruiting strategies and leverage technology to address these challenges.
Globalization, generational shifts, new attitudes towards work and the consumerization of IT are driving business leaders to reconsider the best ways to recruit, train and manage their precious talent. These changes in the way people work are an opportunity to put employees at the center of the business strategy, create a destination for employee collaboration and mobilize talent to deliver bottom-line results. To create a work environment where employees are encouraged and given the resources to learn, share, be engaged in their work and perform at their very best.
Business leaders often say their employees are their organization’s most valuable asset. But how much insight do companies truly have into their workforce? Discover more at http://www.csod.com/TalentIQ

“Significant changes in technology over the past decade are having a profound impact on recruiting strategies, with staffing professionals increasingly using social networking sites to source, contact and screen both active and passive job candidates. In addition to a focus on social networking's impact on the staffing process”
So when we are at the point of hiring the final candidate we should review how career-oriented he/she is. Assess their past experience, know their strength and weaknesses. Consider if they fit in our company’s culture or not. This is the biggest challenge for a company to find a right candidate. Preference should always be given to one who is more skilled and motivated and good fit in the company. So all the past experience on the given resume is checked by the employer if it will fit best for the company

The Second
Quarter edition of the APAC Right
Quarterly is dedicated to Career Management.
The first article called “Developing Talent: How
Career Opportunities drive Business
Performance”, builds upon our core mission
in Right Management, of working with clients
to help align their talent strategy with their
business strategy. Employee engagement
and retention is a critical challenge for many
organizations, and this article talks of how
career development can significantly push
employee engagement. But even career
development needs a structured approach for
effective implementation to ensure business
results.
The second article on “Career Directions:
Having the right Career Conversations”,
shares a case study of an Australian client
who is working towards their 2017 Workforce
plan. An important impact of this will be in
the working environment for the division. To
help employees adapt to this change, Right
Management worked with them to create and
implement a career development initiative for
employees. The aim was on building Coaching
capabilities in People Leaders, and to equip Self leaders with skills necessary to enable
them to make their own career decisions.
The objective was also to align employee
development with future corporate needs,
while also developing career agility.
How to hire the perfect VP of Marketing for your organizationHireQuotient
1. Craft a compelling job description
The job description should accurately reflect the functions and responsibilities of the position, regardless of whether you are employing entry-level personnel or an experienced one like the vice president of marketing. The career path for the role, benefits, and the organization's ideals should all be mentioned. This will undoubtedly draw in highly competent applicants who mesh well with the company.
2. Discover relevant candidates
Recruiters can locate active job seekers by using job boards like Indeed, LinkedIn, ZipRecruiter, and Glassdoor. To locate passive candidates for jobs, they would want recruitment tools.

Technical and professional skills, as well as personality qualities, are validated by the pre-built and customizable adaptive skill assessments offered by EasyAssess, which is used by the VP of Marketing. By leveling the playing field with these pre-employment exams, recruiters can assemble successful teams from a diverse pool of talented applicants.

Predicting potential - Assessing Cognitive Ability in RecruitmentGavin Lamb
Employees with strong cognitive ability are a competitive advantage to an organisation - particularly when they are in
roles that require quick learning, first-time problem solving, thinking ‘on your feet’ and dealing with ambiguity. People who
score well on cognitive ability tests are more likely to develop a greater knowledge of the job more quickly, make effective
decisions and successfully reason and strategise to solve problems. In fact, a landmark study reviewed 85 years of research and found that higher cognitive ability is linked with higher productivity and performance.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Technology's Impact on Attracting Recruiting and Hiring a Competent Workforce
1. Leading printing executives into the future
Technology’s Impact on Attracting, Recruiting and Hiring a
Competent Workforce
By Jerry Scher
Published: February 5, 2013
For the past few months I have been discussing the considerable impact that talented employees
can have on the execution of your business strategies. I’ve encouraged you to consider the
performance differential between your top performers, in any job, and your average performers.
If you’ve gone through this exercise you realize that if you’re able to attract and hire the right
“A” players, their performance differential can be major. I’ve also attempted to get you thinking
about the suitability characteristics of “A” players along with the eligibility requirements that
should be taken into consideration with your screening process
In my future columns I plan to discuss a wide range of behavioral competencies (each
competency is made up of numerous traits) that will impact performance whether we are
recruiting / hiring for sales, marketing, middle management, production, logistics, data
management, administrative, creative services, accounting and/or leaders/executives.
However for today’s column I want to focus on the impact that technology is having on
attracting, screening, assessing, interviewing and hiring the employees that will enable you to
execute your business plans and achieve your business goals and objectives. As we are all
experiencing, technology is dramatically changing the way we conduct business, how we engage
our prospects and clients, how we brand and market our businesses, how we produce our
products and yes, how we hire the talented employees we require.
Technologies including the internet, email, text messaging, mobile communications, data
management and digital production applications are changing the way we communicate
internally and externally. On the one hand, the need to recruit technology savvy employees that
can assist in leveraging these technologies has become a priority while the challenges we face in
working with and managing a multi-generational workforce requires that we focus on differences
in what these distinctive generations look for in their jobs. As baby boomers retire and are
replaced by Gen X’s and Gen Y’s (see article in PIA’s Forecast Part 1 – Trends and Tactics
2013) we face even greater challenges. Approximately 10,000 baby boomers are turning 65
every single day and as they retire we continue to experience a huge knowledge gap. And for the
record, 26% of the US population falls into the baby boomers category. We are undoubtedly
faced with having fewer qualified, skilled workers, with more critical jobs left vacant.
The definition of a "perfect storm" is “an event where a rare combination of circumstances will
aggravate a situation drastically.” And what we have here in regards to building a qualified,
2. competent workforce for 2013 and beyond is a “perfect storm.” Some of the more obvious
challenges include:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Technology is driving the need for a new and more skilled workforce.
The quality of a hire is more critical than ever – we cannot afford bad hires.
The retention of quality employees must be a top priority.
Screening and assessing candidates must become more efficient and effective.
76% of organizations surveyed are either using or planning to use social networking for
recruiting (Aberdeen Research study).
Companies are having difficulty executing new strategies due to a lack of human capital.
The need to recruit and hire innovators has become a significant challenge.
In a recent study conducted by the Graphic Arts Education and Research Foundation (GAERF) it
was reported that 74% of respondents acknowledged that hundreds of thousands of jobs go
unfilled because employers cannot identify candidates that have the required knowledge and
skills (eligibility) for a position. The study also indicated that it has become more challenging to
find sales professionals and managers that can address and apply all of the new technologies
within their positions and that creative problem solving (suitability competence) has become
more critical.
Before I describe how technology can play a role in addressing these challenges, let me first
request that you consider how you have attracted, screened, assessed, recruited, hired and onboarded employees in the past. In my experience most small to midsize businesses do not have a
systematic approach to this process. They recruit only when they have a job to fill and their
ability to find the best candidates is limited; their review of applications and resumes is
subjective at best. They do not follow a systematic approach to assessing the eligibility and
suitability that would enable them to select the very best candidates and overall, their
interviewing skill is not impressive. What I’ve described here only adds to the perfect storm; not
enough skilled, qualified workers; poorly designed recruiting processes; and a need for a
workforce with a new range of skills and behavioral competencies. So how can technology help?
To begin, we need to acknowledge that we must re-evaluate strategies for searching for talent.
We must build a talent pipeline – enabling us to find the right people that fit the job and our
organizational culture. We must expand and widen our candidate searches to reach a more
diverse group of applicants while at the same time minimizing “resume overload.” Have you
ever had to review hundreds of resumes to fill just one job? That’s not much fun; and certainly
not efficient or effective.
With the growth in social media, data management, applicant tracking systems, recruiting
software, on-line assessment tools and integrated marketing/branding applications, your ability to
apply a wide range of technologies to dramatically improve your ability to build your team of
highly qualified and behaviorally competent workers. Some of these technology applications
include:
•
•
Cross media marketing that can help build a powerful and attractive brand. Strong brands drive
quality talent to an organization.
Social media that attracts and engages a wider range of quality candidates.
3. •
•
•
•
•
Referrals (still the most effective source of hiring) can be leveraged by employees using social
media as a referral tool.
On-line eligibility and suitability assessments can screen and rank candidates efficiently and
effectively resulting in the screening and short listing prior to interviewing.
Cross-referencing software provides assessment validity, customized interview questions and
personalized new hire development plans.
Video interviewing, whether live or recorded, can reduce costs and travel time as well as
improve overall interview effectiveness.
Greater automation and a more systematic approach to talent acquisition can provide greater
standardization, efficiency and effectiveness.
