The State of Hiring: Job Market & Predictions
Join us this Wednesday for an intimate conversation.
Amidst poor stock market performance, rising inflation, restricted venture capital investment, and the threat of an economic recession, tech companies are adapting fast to change their hiring strategies.
Meta, Uber, and others have enacted hiring freezes; Robinhood, Peloton, Carvana, and others have cut large percentages of their full-time workforce; while others remain in high-growth mode.
Join us on Wednesday, May 25 at 4 pm PST/7 pm EST in a talent industry-focused conversation about the current state of the hiring market.
We'll explore:
How best to navigate hiring freezes, small and large layoffs, shifting from a candidate- to an employer-driven market, and much more
How to remain competitive for hard-to-fill positions, particularly in engineering
Have we shifted from a compensation war to a values battlefield? Candidates are starting to focus and talk more about values than salary. What does it mean for employers?
How do you protect your “employer brand”? With freezes and possibly layoffs coming up, employers risk being perceived as “unstable” and limiting their opportunities to retain and attract talent.
What is the role of inflation in this market? And how to navigate the delicate balance of keeping the employee content when you can't give them salary adjustments/etc.
How to best retain talent without burning them out?
This will be an active event with polls, engaging chat, and participant involvement.
