Hybrid and flexible working remains more common in HR, which can increase competition for strong talent.

Candidates are motivated by opportunities to contribute to a broader people and culture strategy.

System familiarity is helpful, but adaptability and a willingness to learn new tools are equally valued, especially in organisations undergoing change.

Why is HR hiring increasing in some industries?

Businesses are placing greater emphasis on employee experience, organisational culture, leadership development and workforce planning.
