Trends in Government / Public Sector Recruiting and Executive Search
The government and public sector are being impacted by several key trends driving new requirements for executive search. Our government / public sector recruiting team partners with organizations to provide the right talent quickly, flexibly, and affordably.
Key trends in the industry driving key talent acquisition requirements:
Digital / IT Recruiting
- Process Improvement – in order to fulfill the personalization of the services ambition, among other things governments and public sector organizations need to invest in technologies and innovations to improve processes and outcomes. This requires a transition “from S-government (S-government is characterized by large-scale, standardized solutions) to I-government” (I-government solutions focus on developing more intelligent, interactive solutions that focus on individual needs).
Productivity Improvement Recruitment
- Outsourcing – governments have turned to outsourcing as a way of accessing external expertise and delivering services more cost-effectively. Outsourcing of activities includes sourcing services from the private sector but also from other government entities.
Data Analytics Recruiting
- Leverage data analytics – a major focus in government today is effectively using all the data that is collected to surface insight into what is driving problems. Most state and federal agencies and non-profits are just beginning to add talent to effectively leverage the data they have. There are still challenges in terms of creating the linkage from the data to what needs to be changed. Making sense of the data and tying it to the mission is critical.
HR and Organizational Development Recruiting
- Personnel management – often the leaders are put in place in the public sector that have not had significant leadership training and mentorship in the past. The organizations they manage are often highly complex in that the people resources are less motivated and rewarded than the private sector (e.g., volunteers, part-timers, low-paid workers).
- Organization management – the mission and goals of the organization are often ambiguous and unclear. All these factors lead to the need of organizational experts to help these leaders and organizations and recruit HR and Organizational professionals to support the leaders.
