- GUIDED PROJECT 1
- Analyze the Talent Acquisition Strategy of a Leading Tech Company
- Choose a top tech company like Google, Microsoft, or Amazon. Identify 3-4 key talent personas the company targets for hiring (e.g., software engineers, data analysts, product managers, etc.). Consider demographics (experience level and education) and psychographics (career motivations and skill preferences). Develop detailed profiles for each talent persona, including their core skills, work preferences, career goals, and typical hiring challenges. Summarize how these talent personas shape the company’s talent acquisition and retention strategies, including recruitment channels, employer branding, and onboarding approaches. Perform a brief analysis of how competitors (e.g., Apple, Facebook, Netflix) approach hiring similar talent personas and suggest ways your chosen company can differentiate its talent strategy.
