1. Talent Shortages One of the top talent acquisition challenges of this year is that there’s simply not enough talent. When asked to list their top three recruitment challenges, 57% of employers said they lacked qualified candidates, and 46% said they had too few candidates of any kind, according to the report. And nearly half (41%) said they had failed to fill a vacancy in the prior six months because the candidates available wanted more pay than they were able to offer. #talentshortages #talentpools #recruiting
