Talent management has always been a matter of concern to companies. The practices of recruitment and retention leave a lot to be desired across the world. Gone are the days when the employer could expect potential employees to line up at the door of the employer, on a job advertisement. With cutthroat competition and opportunities galore, employers need to be more conscious and sensitive in their approach to recruitment. Similar is the story of retention of talent. In present times, human capital assumes a paramount importance among the assets of an organization, especially in the IT and service sectors. Attrition is a major hurdle in the development of an organization. Hence, retaining the human capital is as important as the recruitment of the employees. What curbs attrition is still a puzzle to many. This book attempts to answer this million-dollar question and offers various proven procedures and effective methodologies of recruiting and retaining employees.
