2022 Hiring Benchmark Report

Overview: 

The 2022 Hiring Benchmark Report reveals insights from 500+ hiring professionals globally, shedding light on the world of hiring today. In this report, you’ll learn: 

• The top workforce trends of 2022 

2022 has been an unusual year, marked by turbulent and often contradictory economic factors. From the Great Resignation to Return-to-Office (RTO), to record inflation and a looming recession, the hiring market has been anything but simple. 

• Projections for the future 

Despite the economic landscape, hiring professionals in our survey were remarkably optimistic about the future. 78% expected their companies to grow next year, and they also expected their HR budgets to rise. However, they also expected to hire fewer people next year.  

• How companies are hiring today 

The hiring process hasn’t changed all that much from last year, but video interviewing is on the rise. And with new research demonstrating the importance of structured interviews, we uncovered just how many hiring professionals are conducting a truly structured process. 

• The impact business decisions can have on turnover  

High turnover has impacted half of our survey respondents. But organizations are more likely to experience higher turnover under different conditions. For example, companies that operate remotely were the least likely to experience high turnover, compared to hybrid or in-person companies. And companies with defined talent mobility programs also experienced lower turnover than those that don’t have those programs in place.  

• And more! 

In this report, we’ll also explore trends in RTO, get a glimpse at how organizations are prioritizing diversity, and see a side-by-side comparison of what candidates want vs. what employers think they want.
