National Hiring Strategy | Building the new age of hiring

The regulatory landscape has only got more complex in recent weeks and months, with elements of the Employment Rights Act already in play, and government consultations on mandatory salary disclosure, guaranteed hours for zero-hours workers, and holiday pay enforcement all live.  

Tack on to this the doubling of the employment tribunal window from three to six months in October, and the cost of a bad hire only gets higher. 

How will the National Hiring Strategy right the ship (at least partially), and what can TA do right now to stay afloat? 

ATS Integration 

As touched upon in our previous feature on the National Hiring Strategy, the National Hiring Metrics are already shaping the deployment of Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS). Several providers including JobTrain, Equitas, Screenloop, Greenhouse Software, and Tribepad have been among some of the earliest adopters of the metrics.
