We are living in historic moments for the economy and the world. Shortages, wars, pandemics, historical inflation… but among so much uncertainty, we only have 2 certain things that we can take advantage of:
Portability. The Internet has changed the way we interact, work and study, giving everyone the possibility and access to achieve their objectives and goals from wherever they are.
Our dreams. We are unrepeatable, therefore no one should fail to achieve their goals.
In times of uncertainty, change is the only thing people can hold on to. And if the pandemic has left something positive, it has surely been the opening to so many opportunities that are found on the internet, either to improve your personal, and professional life.
Emphasizing the professional issue, there is always talk of what companies expect from candidates, but what about what those people who are looking for in the labor market and are willing to generate and add value expect?
Investigating the subject, we found information on LinkedIn about what the profiles that are open to the labor market are looking for, and we found that the most valued benefits today are:
Flexibility. People want to work from wherever they are, without needing to be present. This allows conciliation and saves many hours on trips from home to work, time that can be used to dedicate to the workday or other activities.
Training. Professionals look for companies where they can be in constant learning. Where they feel valued and that they have the potential to grow, not only at a hierarchical level within the organization but also in their professional preparation.
For example, Gen Z workers see ongoing training from their employer as a key benefit. 76% of them consider learning as the key to a successful career.
Personalization. Companies have, as their greatest asset, their employees. Meaning by this that each of the people who make up a company makes it unique thanks to their experience and personality. For this reason, it is very important that in the human resources strategies companies have a plan to identify each of the internal clients, in order to be able to offer each one, according to their needs, different courses and training that help them to reach their full potential.
