Organizations are struggling to hire quality talent as only 16 percent of new hires have the requisite skills for both their current role and the future, as per a new Gartner report. The report stated, “Candidates are scrutinizing organizations’ responses to the pandemic, looking to see how companies have treated employees during this time.”

The current unstable has made traditional talent pools less viable for sourcing talent as high-quality candidates with traditional qualifications are unlikely to leave their current positions. However existing roles may require up to 10 new skills by 2021.
