The skills/talent paradox• 2 ½ million unemployed in the UK • 40% of employers report a lack of talent• Skill shortages increased from 14 to 47 areas over the last year• 25% of employers said poor recruitment for one role had cost in excess of 40k

Candidate experience getting worse• The recession changed attitudes; 54% are open to an approach • Candidates say recruiters & corporates both getting it wrong • Resentment & mistrust increasing • Most now use 14 or 15 unique sources for job search –
candidates becoming more like a consumers • Candidate identification will get easier, but recruiting and hiring
will get harder and harder

The debate on flexible work
• It kept unemployment down by at least half a million during the downturn
• Helps businesses attract talent they need while at the same time keeping overheads down
• Helps employers deal with fluctuations in demand; growth of a 24/7 culture
• Creates choice for people to balance work and life• Flexible work is currently a political football

The Good Recruitment Campaign,what is it? • A Charter developed by the experts on our Employers’ Advisory
Panel• The charter is a set of principles for organisations to aspire to
meet – The Charter is the campaign’s cornerstone• Self-assessment tool against which organisations can review
themselves• Provision of detailed guidance on each principle of the charger
which sign-posts examples of good practice • Creation of a community who are signed up to the Charter, open
meetings, regular sharing of good practice and research• A hub where research, guidance and case studies on good
practice can be located• Three kits for employers, recruiters and business bodies
