Companies in the HR/hiring space that you should know
Some that raised funding since the beginning of 2021 include Talview, Deel, and Jobandtalent
COVID fundamentally altered the way we live, turning much of what we knew upside down; some of those changes were immediately apparent, and others that might take longer to fully take stock of.
One of the former was employment, and how people looked at their jobs: in 2021, nearly 50 million workers quit their jobs, or around nearly 4 million per month during what’s been called “The Great Resignation," partly due to low pay and few opportunities for advancement. The trend doesn’t seem to be slowing down either, as a McKinsey report published in July 2022 found that 40% of employees are currently considering leaving their jobs.
As a result, employers have to change how they market themselves; they are being faced with the challenge of not only finding the right employees but attracting employees who want increased benefits, alignment on mission, and part-time work. This also means many employers will need some automated tools to help them sift through new hires but manage them as well.
