The traditional career path is evolving. As the Baby Boomer generation makes plans to retire and the newer generation enters the workforce, many employers know that taking the same approach to talent management, hiring and retention may not work.
While two- and four-year degrees still hold significant value, considerations for less common trade and job-specific training opportunities and employment cannot be ignored. In fact, 75 percent of high school and college-aged individuals between the ages of 18 – 20 say they are interested in exploring vocational schools that offer paid, on-the-job training, and 56 percent of respondents believe that “blue-collar” jobs have more job security than “white-collar” jobs given the presence of AI.1 What’s more, with the impact of generative AI and technology, HR professionals and talent experts can also consider what qualities or skills will be the most valuable for their people to cultivate as some primary job roles are gradually replaced by technology. While employers navigate the generational shift in the workforce, it’s important to consider the opportunity of skills-based hiring.
