The Return to a Traditional Workplace May Be Inevitable This Year According Recent Survey
A recent ResumeBuilder.com survey may indicated a shift in the hiring strategy for most employers this year to replenish the traditional workplace.
Chris Frew, CEO at Workforce Genetics
As the world continues to navigate the aftermath of the pandemic, many companies are re-evaluating their approach to work in 2023, and the role of the office has returned as an important part of their operational strategy. A recent ResumeBuilder.com survey found that 90% of Companies Will Require Employees to Return to a Traditional Workplace this year.
This shift back towards in-person collaboration and connection is an indication of the growing realization of the benefits that come with traditional working environments – for both employers and employees.
The survey, which received feedback from 1,000 employers of companies that have been in business for at least three years and had a majority of workers in traditional office spaces prior to the pandemic, revealed some interesting findings. Currently, 66% of employers require employees to work from the office with some frequency. In the next six months, 73% of fully remote companies will return to in-person work, indicating that by 2023,…
The pandemic changed—and continues to change—how people work, how they think about work and how employers and job seekers negotiate employment offers and compensation packages. Employers were forced to accept remote work during the pandemic; now and perhaps moving forward remote work has silently become an embedded and expected part of most employer operations and many people’s work lives.
The top concern of most business leaders is the state of the global economy, which is in the middle of a period of high volatility in the supply chain, gas prices and inflation. All of these factors have sparked fears and monopolized boardroom discussions around appropriate business strategies ahead of an impending recession at some point in 2023.
Effective resumes balance telling the salient details about your career journey and your skills (both hard and soft skills) in a way that’s attention grabbing and thorough, yet easily read and digested by recruiters that are swamped with candidates.
In the life sciences industry, the top candidates that you interview typically receive multiple offers. That’s just a reality for hiring managers. Another hard reality is that time is of the essence when it comes to scheduling, conducting and completing the interview process.
