The Hiring Shift of 2024: Experience Takes the Lead Over Potential: It appears the pendulum has swung back towards valuing experience over potential. The Rise and Fall of Hiring for Skills Over Experience 2023: The Year of Skills --Articles galore championing the virtues of skills-based hiring. --Businesses lauded for their forward-thinking approaches. --A dynamic shift from traditional experience markers to skills and capabilities. 2024: The Return to Experience --A noticeable decline in the skills-over-experience rhetoric. --Informal discussions reveal a preference for the tried and tested. "...this candidate has the potential to..." is no longer a phrase clients like to hear. --The job market’s subtle, yet profound, nod towards the reliability of experience. Why the Change? -- It's now the Quest for the "Sure-Thing" and what clients are saying, even if they’re not “saying it”. --Economic Uncertainties: A volatile market could now demand proven expertise. -- Operational Efficiencies: Businesses seek individuals who can hit the ground running. Short sighted companies have been cutting costs through pulling back on non money making departments, ie, Learning and Development. So, what do you think? It’s not about one being better than the other, but right or wrong, there are more candidates being rejected for being “slightly off the mark” than ever before. And that’s the reality.

The traditional reliance on academic certificates as the primary way to decide a candidate's potential is becoming increasingly outdated. Instead of getting hung up on where someone went to school, we're looking at what they can actually do. The questions that really matter should be: Can they solve the problems we're facing? Do they have the know-how to help us grow? Moreover, this model promotes inclusivity and diversity in the workplace. If we remove these old barriers related to educational background, we can open doors for talented individuals who may have taken non-traditional career paths. Not everyone has the same opportunities when it comes to education so it is upon us as recruiters to level the playing field. #recruitment #hiring #strategy
