- Common reasons for difficulty included candidates lacking the right skills, experience, or being outside the salary range. Competition from other employers was also cited.

Shrm survey findings using competencies to achieve business unit success finalshrm
SHRM surveyed executives of business units other than HR (e.g., CEO, CFO, Vice President) to learn more about their views of what it takes for leaders to be successful across HR departments and different functional areas such as finance and accounting, sales and marketing, and IT. Specifically, this report focuses on the competencies needed now and in the future, including Business Acumen, Communication, Consultation, Critical Evaluation, Ethical Practice, Global and Cultural Effectiveness, Human Resource Expertise, Leadership and Navigation, and Relationship Management. The report also looks at which competencies are lacking in the labor pools of candidates for HR and other business units, and how to address those competency gaps.

But that’s not the whole story - the challenges in this candidate-driven employment market are many. And some of the moves being made by candidates to leverage the situation (and by companies to try and control it) are only contributing to the ever-increasing complexity of the hiring process. - See more at: http://pages.xtglobal.com/Addressing-Top-IT-Hiring-Challenges-Download-Page.html#sthash.LmOl81b4.dpuf
