Through 2020, our Accounting and Finance team has been working closely with top clients and market leaders to highlight current trends within the industry. As business leaders adapted to the new processes put in place, progress has been made in several areas. The most positive change is in the way companies have reimagined the hiring process. Most interviews and onboarding are conducted remotely which has drastically shortened the end-to-end recruitment process. These changes allow our clients to act quickly and decisively when identifying top-tier talent. Additionally, the advancement of remote working allows them to search a wider pool of talent giving access to a greater number of qualified candidates.

We know that attracting and securing top talent will be fundamental in the next steps for all businesses, building upon organizational change and transformation to thrive in 2021. To support our customers in developing the teams they need for success and finding the right roles to drive their careers forward, we have divided this guide into two areas of focus:
