New annual employer study reveals insights into the return to the office, the state of pay, skills-based hiring, and talent trends
SANTA MONICA, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–ZipRecruiter®, a leading online employment marketplace, today released the results from its first Annual Employer Survey, providing an in-depth look into the challenges, motivations, and latest hiring practices of employers across the U.S. According to the new report, employers are adopting new policies, processes and offerings to recruit and retain top talent in today’s labor market.
“Employers increasingly understand that labor shortages are here to stay, given current demographic trends and government policies. In response, they have made a dizzying array of changes to their hiring processes, tech stacks, benefits offerings, and remote work policies over just the past year. Now, many are turning to emerging Generative AI tools, eager to find a silver bullet,” said Julia Pollak, ZipRecruiter Chief Economist and lead author of the report.
ZipRecruiter surveyed individuals responsible for hiring decisions at 2,000 businesses of varying sizes and industries throughout the U.S. The report provides insights into four major categories – work arrangements, skills-based hiring, the state of pay, and top talent trends.
