Features: This book is intended for managers, headhunters, company recruitment personnel, and professionals engaged in human resources work. It elaborates in detail on how to concurrently recruit, hire, and retain high-potential high-tech talent. Learn how to create and refine employee programs, how to leave a good impression on future employees through websites and substantial efforts, and how to evaluate a candidate's technical and non-technical abilities. In this high-tech era, the shortage of high-tech talent has created a crisis in its normal operation. The publication of this translation is undoubtedly good news for technical professionals constantly seeking better development opportunities, but it may be bad news for those responsible for recruiting technical staff. Simply put, a high-tech talent war has already begun, with major companies engaging in fierce competition to recruit outstanding high-tech talent. Unlike conventional wisdom, this book argues that the best weapon to win this war is not a calm attitude, company size, or high salaries. What you truly need is a well-designed and properly executed employee program.
