The impact on the early career end of the labour market will be twofold: (1) as the definition of early career broadens, student recruitment and development teams will work with a much broader definition of talent that includes career changers and those re-skilling or up-skilling; and (2) early careers teams will work as part of a broader organisational ecosystem where greater integration through HR and the business will become the norm and strategic workforce planning, learning cultures, technology and data play a crucial role in how people strategies are deployed. The report sets out recommendations for implementing a skills-based approach and the role technology can play within it. It explores how the two forces of demographic and technological change are leading organisations to integrate a skills-based approach, focussing less on a person’s age, education exit point and prior technical experience.
