Talent network / Community usage is growing.
When we first conducted this study in 2015, just over a quarter of the Fortune 500
(27%) offered an option to join a talent network. That number grew to 33% in
2016 and 35% in 2017. It’s interesting to see the positive momentum, but it also
shows how much opportunity still remains for the rest of the Fortune 500.
