Quiet hiring may sound secretive, but it’s simply about finding the right talent within your existing workforce.  Think of it as internal mobility with a renewed focus: reskilling, upskilling, and redeploying employees to meet evolving needs. While internal mobility isn’t new, leveraging the right tools to effectively execute this strategy might be.

Why is quiet hiring so relevant today? 

In a tight talent market, finding candidates with the right skills can feel impossible. Quiet hiring allows you to bridge those skills gaps by developing your existing employees. It also boosts engagement and retention, and by offering growth opportunities it shows employees they are valued and invested in.

Quiet hiring in action!

Imagine a marketing team needing someone with strong data analysis skills. Instead of immediately posting a new expensive job ad, you look internally. Perhaps a graphic designer on the team has a hidden talent for data analysis. With some targeted training and mentorship, that designer could transition into a new role, benefiting both the employee and the company. You might be thinking, but how do you find this employee, and how do I know they have a hidden talent for data analysis. 

Well, that’s a great question!
