"What's happening with candidates in the market?" 🤔 ⭐ One in two candidates have backed out of an accepted job offer in the past 12 months, according to new research from Gartner ⭐ More than one-third (35%) of candidates reported receiving four or more offers during their last job search, according to the global research, which included more than 200 respondents in Australia and New Zealand. ⭐ And among the candidates who recently accepted an offer, 47% said they were still open to other job offers after accepting a position, while 42% believed they could find a better job if they continued looking. ⭐ "Despite the recent rise in unemployment, the talent market in Australia remains tight – our research shows 59% of HR leaders expect more talent competition in the next three months," says Aaron McEwan VP in the Gartner HR practice. "Open positions remain hard to fill in Australia and many candidates are uncommitted to their new employer and keeping one foot in the open job market." ⭐ Meanwhile nearly 90% of candidates said they have exited a hiring process due to at least one mismatch in employee value proposition preferences, adds Jamie Kohn, senior director in the Gartner HR practice. "This includes compensation and benefits, but also things like flexibility in working hours, career pathing, skills development, team diversity and management style."
