The world today is constantly changing requiring
organizations to adapt quickly and seek expertise to help
meet the demands on their business. There are many
workforce challenges that organizations seek to
overcome, and one of the hardest things to do in modern
corporations is to keep the talent pool young and vibrant.
Early career hires tend to bring new and exciting ideas
into play that may not even be considered by their more
seasoned peers. The challenge with early career hires,
especially in the Science, Technology, Engineering &
Math (STEM) career fields, is the extreme difficulty in
finding candidates who, not only have book knowledge,
but also have hands-on, real world experience. Statistics
show that this is a real concern to professional workforce
employers. In this presentation, we highlight a model
aimed at adopting new approaches for seeking and
evaluating high quality candidates for on-boarding,
conducting interviews and hiring to build a corporate
talent pipeline. We discuss the model as it relates to
recruiting, training, competition-based interviewing and
providing hands-on work experience toward helping to
build strong professionals in an organization. We
conclude by highlighting several examples of successful
approaches and their outcomes.
