Additionally, 16% of leaders believed that they are growing aggressively, while 8% perceived a decline compared to the previous year. Another 8% of leaders believed that they are currently realigning investments.

The survey also highlighted that the most important factors for candidates in deciding a role included considerations such as compensation, work-life balance, job security, advancement opportunities, learning new skills, priorities, and global exposure amongst others.

Puneet Arora, managing partner, Biz Staffing Comrade, said, “Over the years, the role of the talent acquisition function has changed considerably from a traditional number focused inward function to a highly quality focused outward function to achieve the organisation’s broader goals. TA is now responsible for so much more within this space, from talent information to internal mobility and retention and tends to focus on long-term human resources planning.”

“Human Resource professionals navigating economic uncertainty and an ever-shifting work environment will pursue new approaches and new technologies to better develop and retain talent. Today, the success of any modern organisation depends on the success of its workforce,” added Jasvinder Bedi, managing partner, Biz Staffing Comrade.

However, Bedi added there is a persistent skills gap across industries, which has a direct impact on productivity, business growth and innovation. Hence, considering the increased focus on people capability and the asymmetric talent war in the market, the role of talent acquisition has become critical to organisations.
