The "New Collar" trend of hiring offers a lot of benefits to both the employee and employer. Here are just a couple of stats from the Financial Times that prove it: ➡️ Retention rates: The retention rate for employees hired through skills-based processes is 10 percentage points higher than for those with bachelor's degrees. ➡️ Salary increases: Workers hired into "new collar" roles experience an average salary increase of 25%. And these are two of the many benefits we're seeing from this hiring strategy. There are challenges in implementation and let's face it, breaking through traditional norms, however 2025 is shaping up to be a big year of change across HR including hiring, so we may see this idea grow a lot more. What are your thoughts on this hiring strategy? Are you considering implementing something more like it in your business? #hiring #HR
