Your turn: Hiring Assignment
© 2021 IBM Corporation

The Talent Revolution | The most complicated and fast changing hiring market in
a generation.
Recruitment and retention are trickier than ever, and job candidates are calling the shots. Competition for talent is fierce,
and everything’s changing––fast.
▪ New jobs are being created at a record rate, people of all ages, backgrounds, and education are working in jobs they
never dreamed about.
▪ Remote work has now become standard fare, and this makes workers even more mobile.
▪ Research estimates that 40% of workers changed jobs, roles, or managers.
▪ This level of change is unprecedented – and it means workers are mobile, opportunistic, and soon to be in charge.
▪ We need to diversify our sourcing and recruiting, and seriously open up job search for diverse and different
candidates.
▪ The days of looking for people with “deep levels of experience” are over – now we have to look for people with skills,
ambition, and the ability to learn.

Your Turn: Solving a real use case
Issues we have: IBM is currently faced with significant hiring needs in a

new, disrupted Labor Market. Not only do we need new profiles and
skills, but we also need to consider more female and next-gen hiring.
Develop a Point of View and set of solutions to help us accelerate our

hiring efforts, using the HR skills of the future:
▪ Design Thinking: Define the (IBM) Employee of the future,

what are we looking for?
▪ Research & Analytics: Have a look at our job requisition and
Glassdoor, How IBM is being perceived in Talent Market?
What do you think of the job descriptions?
▪ Solutioning: What actions do you recommend we implement
and why?, From all angles: e.g. Job promotion, Employer
Brand, Comp & Ben, etc.

How do we approach this task?
Let’s think together!
Step 1
Formulate an answerable research question
- what does the company want to know?

- what is the problem?
- scope: broader or narrower?
- keywords
Step 2
Sources of information:
- Desk research: company website, job listings,
social media, news articles, competitors, business
reports, academic literature
- Field research: collect first hand data (LinkedIn
survey, interview your friends etc).
Step 3
Critically apprise your evidence:
- What did we find?
- What is the quality?
- Can we use it?
Organize your data
Step 4
Write your conclusions:
- What do we know?
- What do we not know?
- What would be our conclusion?
- Write the report for the company (what you found)

plus recommendation (based on literature and your
critical thinking)
Do you remember?
Evidence-Based Management: Key Steps
Making decisions based on high-quality evidence:
1) Ask an answerable question about a practical issue

2) Systematically acquire and retrieving available evidence
3) Critically appraise the relevance and trustworthiness of the evidence
4) Aggregate different sources of evidence
5) Apply evidence in the decision-making process
6) Assess outcome of decision → evidence
...And doing it again and again

Let’s do the work!
1) Create teams of 4
2) Sign up as a team on Canvas (in
IBM assignment section)
3) Write the report of minimum 1000
words and submit via Canvas by
October 3rd, at 23:59.
