| Job Seekers And Employers Are Not Connecting On CSR Posted: 14 Sep 2010 12:52 PM PDT If there's one thing that stands out from Vault's recent Job Hunting in CSR series, it's the disconnect between candidates and employers. A recent survey by Towers Watson further indicates that this gap might be much more widespread because of the differing priorities among employers versus employees. Job SkillsA survey released by TalentDrive, the team behind online résumé aggregation search engine TalentFilter, now adds yet another layer to the troubling picture. The report suggests a widening gap between current employers' expectations and job seekers' skill sets. In a month-long survey, 79,000 job seekers (86% actively seeking employment) were asked to assess their personal skill set and attitude toward the current job market. Additionally, 20,000 hiring managers from Fortune 1000 companies were asked if they had noticed a change in the quality of candidates since the recession's start. The results of the survey are unnerving: Almost three-quarters of the job seekers surveyed were pessimistic about their career search. That's the number of respondents who indicated that they possessed the required skill set for positions, but were not getting hired. Little wonder, then, that 37% of respondents expressed no hope that things would improve. However, 42% of the employers surveyed indicated that the recession had not only increased the quantity of candidates, but they were finding more qualified candidates than in years past. So where is the disconnect? When candidates believe they possess the required skill sets, why are they not getting hired? Take into account that 67% of those surveyed reported having between one and five interviews per month since the beginning of their job search, and that 75% of those had not received a single job offer. Specialization or general business skills?Could the disconnect come down to a question of specialized vs. general business skills? According to the report, 71% of HR representatives reported that more than half of their open positions were specialized. Comparatively, 61% of the job seekers' group considered themselves to be "professionals with broad skill sets." Interestingly, my interviews with MBA graduates Ashley Jablow and Geet Singh reveal a flip side to the specialization picture. Having focused on CSR and sustainability at business school, both Jablow and Singh confessed that their job hunts weren't exactly working out to be walks in the park. However, in their case, partial blame goes to a lack of demand for CSR work. For the respondents of the TalentDrive survey, specialized skills leaned toward more traditional fields like IT and technology. Job Search DestinationsThere is one area where the TalentDrive survey shows job seekers and employers are in agreement: Social Media. An overwhelming 74% of job seekers said the most beneficial job search method was posting a resume on job boards followed by 27% picking social media, for the first time surpassing traditional methods like classified ads, professional recruiters and networking events. Agreement was mutual with 27% of employers saying the highest response for most effective search method was social networks, followed by resume sourcing technologies.
