Recruitment and Retention: What's Working and What's Motivating Job Candidates

January 9, 2025, from 2:00 p.m. – 3:00 p.m.

ICMA Practice Areas: 4, 6, 9,10 and 13

Program Summary:

From the macro-level data, we know that the public sector workforce has returned to pre-pandemic levels. But while recruitment has become somewhat less challenging, certain positions remain hard to fill. This session will share recent data from HR managers about successful strategies for filling those gaps, and how best to retain new hires. In addition, employee perspectives will reveal what really matters to job seekers when it comes to choosing a public or private sector employer and deciding to stay.

Attendees will gain an understanding not only of current strategies and results, but also insights into employee attitudes by key demographics, such as those 35 and under.
