I found it interesting as Talent Acquisition is ranked 3rd as a priority in HR (a total surprise!) and secondly it made me revisit my memories of beyond recruitment experience.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">The terms\u00a0<em>Recruitment<\/em>\u00a0andTalent Acquisition\u00a0are considered to be equivalent by many individuals and organizations. However, a difference does exist. Bersin by Deloitte aptly defines TA as a strategic approach comprising of recruitment components (sourcing channels, screening and interviewing, assessing, and selecting) as well as other strategic and process components (workforce planning and segmentation, employment branding, candidate experience management, process expertise and compliance, integration with talent management framework, and analytics\/metrics). In other words, TA is more of a gestalt approach that is proactive and dynamic.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">Today\u2019s VUCA world mandates companies (irrespective of their size) to think beyond recruitment. The intention should not be limited to just opening and closing a position, but it should be more proactive and holistic in nature. Companies and their leadership teams need to understand the importance of TA as it helps align business needs and strategic expertise with the available cross-generational workforce skills, abilities, sourcing strategies available to tap the talent, branding, and campaigns to attract talent and technology as a key differentiator. By so doing so, it strengthens the candidate-company relationship to enhance the overall value proposition.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">It\u2019s important to note that TA components don\u2019t operate in a vacuum. Planning and working through the components becomes challenging due to the volatile flux of different environmental (internal and external) factors like rapid technological advancements, demands to shorten hiring cycles, candidates\u2019 needs, and expectations, lack of adequate talent within an organization to streamline the hiring process, use of traditional sourcing channels, unstructured interviews, screening and interview processes guided by the interplay of different biases, the inability of a company to invest in technological-driven applicant tracking systems (ATS), \u2026. and the list continues.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color\">Implementing TA requires a company to think beyond recruitment, understand, tweak and tune TA components when needed. The said company needs to consider the various operating forces within and outside of itself, and plan on how to integrate all the TA components seamlessly to facilitate efficient execution.
