| While the Millennial generation is rapidly growing,
employers are faced with another concern from the other
end of the employee spectrum: the so-called "silver
tsunami", or wave of aging associates preparing to exit
the workforce in record numbers. |

emphasizing employee socialization. With 22% of turnover
occurring in the first 45 days of employment, it's
time to dust off your on-boarding processes to ensure that new employees become satisfied members of your staff to reduce turnover, increase engagement, and ramp up the speed for employees to contribute to your organization's success, as well as their own. |

| Many companies looking for workers have policies in place
that immediately disqualify the long-term unemployed, and
some companies have even radicalized this policy, rejecting
any applicants that are currently unemployed, regardless
of skill or work experience. If organizations are willing to
break down the policies keeping long-term unemployed
candidates out of their talent pool, a flood of qualified
applicants may come rushing in. |

| To better understand the challenges talent acquisition
professionals are facing, the ADP Research Institute
® recently conducted two studies: one focused
on recruiters in companies with 1,000 or more employees,

and expectations on both sides of the equation. |

| As many companies know, one of the most important
tools available in a recruiter's arsenal is a well established pipeline. Campus hires, whether they are
potential internship candidates, or current interns
looking to transition into full-time roles, build the

| Organizations across the United States often commit to developing and implementing better
diversity and inclusion practices within their workplaces. Demographics are shifting rapidly, and
the Millennial generation plays a key role in shaping the workforce. Not only is the Millennial
generation large, it's diverse. According to a U.S. Census Bureau report, Millennials are increasingly
racially and ethnically diverse, born outside the U.S., and bilingual -- and this is a trend that
is likely to continue, especially in large cities. As Millennial workers will make up the majority
of the workforce within the next decade, companies that want to succeed should pay very close
attention to Millennials and the changes they are bringing to the workforce. |

|
| Workforce demographics are changing on a global
scale. Younger, more diverse workers are coming of
age and seeking to advance in their careers, while
older workers are faced with the choice of whether
to retire or stay on in their roles. Baby Boomers,
Generation Xers, and Millennials will all be in the
workforce together for years to come, and companies
are working to determine how to best recruit the top
workers from each demographic. |
