Fireside Chat 2 #Recap 🚀
For our second fireside chat, we took a look into Global Talent Sourcing and Planning. The speakers who joined us are professionals when it comes to workforce expansion and talent acquisition.
Key takeaways:
- Before the expansion, find the key players in the local market and build a strong relationship. It’s beneficial as it’s a quick way to understand the local ecosystem through local partners.
- When a team is still small, the company culture is more difficult to define. However, this is something you can build on. One company should always be more active on digital platforms to attract talents, especially for the younger generation.
- When COVID-19 hit, a lot of new working styles were introduced. Companies are soon learning that the office serves as a platform for everyone to gather, and employees shouldn’t be restricted to only work at the office. People and companies should be like water, quickly adapting to new situations.
- Bonus tip for those looking for a job - build your own brand! Even in the company you are in now, find your own style both online and offline.
Expansion and hiring is always a challenge because as a company you’d always want to find the right talent and the right market. Building a strong team and understanding a new market both take time, but they will be worth it in the long run! 💆
