Agile Recruitment
Councils face challenges in attracting suitable staff for the roles they are offering. Rather than a universal workforce issue, it may come down to recruitment processes.
This project investigated the benefits of agile recruitment practices across local governments to remedy the issue. Specifically, it explored how a flexible approach to recruiting can strengthen organisations, creating more diverse workforces that represent the council's community and ultimately achieve better outcomes for them. Through their project's deliverables, the team hope to help the sector attract a more diverse pool of applicants while creating better hiring outcomes and more inclusive workplace cultures.
