Description
The insurance industry remains a candidate-driven market and competition for innovative and future-oriented professionals is increasing. However, many organizations miss out on qualified talent by basing their hiring and promotion criteria on candidates’ past roles and lengthy lists of requirements. By taking an approach that focuses on skills, not experience, insurers are able to be more inclusive in their hiring and reach a broader talent pool of diverse individuals. In this session, attendees will explore actionable steps for expanding their candidate pools, interviewing for skills, and supporting DEI efforts by uncovering potential among individuals both inside and outside the industry.
