As the world is slowly going back to normal, companies started asking their employees to go back to work in their physical places. But, after almost two years of spending extra time at home with their loved ones and seeing that it didn't affect their productivity, most talents reject this idea, causing them to quit their jobs and look for other remote work opportunities. In professional pharmaceutical advertising, hiring and retaining talent has always been problematic, and indeed, this new scenario is not making things easier.
Joining us today is Chris Cahill, an experienced HR and talent acquisition specialist who is undoubtedly in the front lines of the so-called talent crunch. Chris is the Director of Talent Acquisition at Evoke, a great human being, and a dear friend.
In this episode, our conversation revolves around the staff shortage companies are experiencing, how it affects both leaders and staff members, and how Chris deals with it. We also go through the current challenges of hiring and retaining talent, how Chris knows when a candidate fits the company's culture, and what keeps him up at night. Chris kindly shares a win-win-win moment of his professional career. We also analyze how letting circumstances dictate how we react forces us to focus on the result, stopping us from enjoying the journey.
