The Importance of
Objectivity and Subjectivity
in Tech Recruiting
ASSESS TECHNICAL SKILLS BEFORE MOVING CANDIDATES
FORWARD IN THE INTERVIEWING PROCESS
According to a December 2016 survey by the career site
Indeed, nearly 90 per cent of companies reported they
find it challenging to find and hire technical talent.
Seventy-five per cent of HR managers surveyed said
that the time it takes to fill IT positions has increased in the past
three years.
Technology is the catalyst for disruption across industries and
more and more companies realize they must put more skin in the
game to remain competitive. The need for tech talent is no longer
limited to IT or engineering – coders, programmers and engineers
are now essential employees across most functions. As a result, the
hiring demand for related positions has far outpaced other roles.
