Talent recruitment according to…
2012 / 2013

9. Talent recruitment according to int’l employers
•Strategic staff planning: interaction between international
employers & local education limited and ineffective
Definition of profiles: academic level only, focus on study but
skills required, MBO/HBO unknown
Search: customized processes (business, IO’s, NGO’s), interns via
university only; corporate focus amongst students, negative
image NGO’s and some IO’s
Selection: ‘procedural’ rejections; timing issue internships;
‘international profile’: network = decisive
Retention: continuity of programs challenged by (mutual)
priority shifts; quality of life aspects need attention!
