In this episode, Maya talks about why competencies, not skills, can provide better insight and better hires in recruitment.

Chapters:

[0:00 - 4:51] Introduction

Welcome, Maya!
Today’s Topic: Understanding Competencies and Their Role in Recruitment

[4:52 - 15:15] What do we mean by “competencies”?

Competencies are contextualized skills
The future of work won’t bring new solutions, it’ll bring on a paradigm shift

[15:16 - 21:29] How do we shift from over-automated recruitment to people-driven recruitment?

Companies will have to learn how to assess candidates without resumes
Competencies change over time and all options need to be open for candidates to be re-assessed when appropriate

[21:30 - 31:07] Maya’s predictions for 2023

Data-rich technologies will help companies roll out competency-based HR practices
Promotion should essentially be internal recruiting

[31:08 - 32:13] Final Thoughts & Closing

Thanks for listening!

Quotes:

“Competencies are not skills—because there’s movement about skill-based hiring. . . . But [the skill] depends on the context. It’s the context [in which the skill is used] that matters. That’s competency.”

“Resumes and [the current] application process were invented a long, long time ago. I want my kids to grow up to say, ‘Resume: are people still using those?’ ”
