As interest in skills-based hiring grows among employers, so do questions around the return on investment.

Having this data in hand is definitely useful, but there are still other equally powerful options to promote skills-based hiring practices, such as storytelling focused on the human impact. #ROI #skillsbasedhiring #talentpractices
