Talent Acquisition Survey
2011
“And better talent is what will separate the winning
companies from the rest.”McKinsey “The War of Talent”
Introduction
Our survey reflects this sentiment….
50% professionals feel increasing competition
in talent acquisition is driving recruitment
strategies
iRisk Comment
Enabling functions like IT and IT Security are increasingly becoming important
for being competitive. The fact that IT Act (Amendment) 2008 has brought
these sectors under ‘intermediaries’ also makes acquiring best talent that
much more imperative.
76.5% respondents felt that not just
acquiring the right talent but the ‘BEST’ talent is
significant to up the ante
iRisk Comment
Quality of talent acquired is the most significant metric in assessing the
success of the manpower acquisition strategies of organizations in the current
economic scenario
Gone are the days of quantities and quality rules the day today….
55% organizations are engaging talent
acquisition solution providers based on their
scale of industry or domain experience
iRisk Comment
Recruitment needs better understanding of the domain and provide value
instead of playing a dice game of sending 8 resumes daily to see success in 5
days (dice game of hoping to click both dice at 6 with a probability of 1 in 36)
Industry or domain expertise is the way to go in acquiring that elusive “BEST” talent….
72.7% professionals felt their key reason to
shift from their current organizations is growth
opportunities offered by available positions
iRisk Comment
While monetary compensation is still a very important factor for skilled
professionals to make moves, that very same talent pool is more keen on ‘real’
growth opportunities having seen few economic downturns & upturns in the
last decade alone
„BEST‟ talent will go where there are „BEST‟ growth opportunities ….
50% participants felt time to fill available
vacancy was next only to quality of talent
acquisition in providing an edge
iRisk Comment
Any vacant position is additional cost – a function of:
•administrative overheads for professionals handling it in the interim
•cost of opportunities lost for the business and
•last but not the least cost of mental stress for individual handling the role
internally but not having the required skill sets for that position
Race is long but time is always short in the increasing competition and economic upturn….
39.4% companies are increasing their talent
acquisition spend by more than 20% in this
economic upturn, up 3% then last year
iRisk Comment
Acquiring niche and specialized talent mandates companies to get those extra
budgets from their management. This could mean paying premium to niche
talent acquisition partners or paying that ‘little’ premium to good talent
Corporate’s are willing to shell that extra $ to acquire talent….
Periodic or frequent manpower planning came out as the most
prevalent strategy topping the chart with 35%
