Horsefly Talent Analytics Insights

 

I have been working with data companies like Horsefly's CEO, Will Crandle, over the last three months to try to properly understand labor market insights, and what is actually useful to recruiters when it comes to filling roles. I know that there continues to be a lot of talk about how recruiters are, or could use data to perform better, beyond adopting a rinse and repeat approach to hiring. We understand and acknowledge that data in decision making is important, as we try to move from reliance on “gut feel” based on experience, to something a bit more provable. 

 

Admiral Group, a leading UK based insurer that employs over 10,000 people, had only done a pilot of remote working for a very small percentage of their workforce in 2019.  With the COVID-19 pandemic, they quickly had to adjust their remote work policy and look to fill hard to fill roles across the UK.
