The Disconnect Between Hiring and Retention - The 10 Minute Talent Rant
Hiring leaders want the best. People with strong skills who fit very specific skill needs. No one ever says they’ll hire someone who is “pretty good at a bunch of stuff.”
Yet come layoff time, that’s who they prioritize retaining. Those who can take on the most workload. The old “do more with less.”
High for specialization. Retain for breadth.
Why is that? And can layoff decision-making teach us how we should change our hiring process? Jeff Smith and James Hornick discuss in the next The 10 Minute Talent Rant, Episode 76 "The Disconnect Between Hiring and Retention"
