In what way will the current climate and technological changes impact HR?
How will recruitment transform in 2020 and beyond?
Singapore expects the jobs market to change further this year amidst ongoing uncertainties.
But what should remain the same is the need to focus on candidate and employee experience to not only sustain strong recruitment, but also an overall organisational strategy.
In an annual study by HireRight, it was found that employers in Asia Pacific had a renewed focus on candidate experience, from application to onboarding, as well as the overall employee experience.
“Background screening can play an essential – and perhaps often overlooked – role in augmenting an organisation’s candidate and employee experience,” said Steve Girdler, managing director of EMEA and APAC at HireRight.
“On one hand, ensuring a seamless and convenient screening experience will help position brands positively in the eyes of potential hires.
“At the same time, a robust and consistent approach to screening and re-screening for existing employees – regardless of seniority or nationality – will help build a safer and fairer working environment for all.”
This year, HireRight is running an employment screening benchmark survey to determine issues such as how new technologies will impact HR and recruitment.
