This trend has become common in the hospitality industry due to its emphasis on skills over formal education. But the shift toward skills-based hiring is gaining momentum across various industries.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/lgcassociates.com\/es\/skills-based-hiring-trend\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">first part<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of our skills-based hiring series, we explored this hiring technique in-depth, with insights from a leading Ivy League school. Now, in the second part of this series, we\u2019ll take a deeper dive into how this trend is reshaping the way managers approach Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS), job descriptions and more.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We\u2019ll cover:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why skills-based hiring has faced challenges in the past<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Where to start making changes to your hiring practices<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s start by examining the roadblocks that have held back this approach.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Why Skills-Based Hiring Has Struggled in the Past<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When a company undergoes a large, systematic change, there\u2019s always a degree of risk. Whether that risk involves loss of profits, shareholder concerns, or other disruptions, the discomfort that comes with trying something new often prevents changes from reaching their full potential.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is one of the main reasons why skills-based hiring hasn\u2019t been fully embraced by many HR departments. Hiring from degree programs provides a sense of security. Many hiring managers believe that candidates with college degrees offer more than just technical skills\u2014they bring important <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/hbr.org\/sponsored\/2024\/03\/using-skills-first-hiring-to-build-strong-teams-and-grow-your-business?utm_medium=paidsearch&amp;utm_source=google&amp;utm_campaign=domcontent&amp;utm_term=Non-Brand&amp;tpcc=paidsearch.google.dsacontent&amp;gad_source=1&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjwzva1BhD3ARIsADQuPnUSAOetzbM5CCqLQq6FcS-pimHi6RM_1dUKLJbKKDwTSmGNxmHWlIkaAhd7EALw_wcB\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">soft skills<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that are honed through their educational experiences.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additionally, fear of losing clients, profits, or even internal talent can prevent companies from fully adopting skills-based hiring. Large-scale changes like these can be time-consuming, and many businesses can\u2019t afford to slow down. When hiring needs are urgent, companies may feel pressure to stick with their traditional processes rather than risk a slower, unfamiliar approach.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While these concerns are valid, the biggest reason skills-based hiring fails is the lack of a solid plan upfront, combined with insufficient training post-hire. When certain positions don\u2019t require immediate education or certification\u2014but will in the future\u2014hiring someone with potential won\u2019t work unless they\u2019re given continuous opportunities to upskill. This is where sponsored education programs, professional development, and in-house training come into play. To make the greatest impact, every phase of the process, including post-hire, needs to be thoughtfully planned.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So how can you avoid these common missteps? It\u2019s time to reflect on the systems you have in place.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Evaluating The Systems Already in Place<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hiring for skills isn\u2019t just about casting a wider net and hoping for more diverse candidates. It\u2019s about intentionality. Ask yourself: What skills are truly relevant to this job, and which ones can be learned during the adjustment period?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Two critical areas to reassess in your hiring process are:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Job descriptions<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><em>Job Descriptions<\/em><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re transitioning to a skills-based approach, the first place to start is your job descriptions. Let\u2019s say you\u2019re hiring a General Manager for a restaurant. One candidate has a college degree in Management, Business Administration, or a related field and has spent years learning how to run a business. Another candidate has a high school diploma and five years of hands-on experience as a Shift Supervisor and Store Manager in retail and food service.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Both candidates are qualified in different ways, but is your job description excluding the one without a degree?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A job description designed for skills-based hiring should:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Highlight both the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/learn.credly.com\/blog\/how-to-write-a-skills-based-job-description\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">hard and soft skills<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> needed for success<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Distinguish between skills needed from Day 1 and those that can be learned through upskilling<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Include details about company culture and how the candidate will fit in<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Focus on <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/business\/talent\/blog\/talent-strategy\/why-skills-based-hiring-starts-with-job-descriptions\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">responsibilities and performance expectations<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By refining your job descriptions and removing unnecessary qualifications, you\u2019ll significantly widen your pool of qualified candidates. Not only will you see more applicants, but the diversity of their experiences and skills will also expand.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><em>Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS)<\/em><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once your job descriptions reflect your new hiring goals, the next step is to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kornferry.com\/insights\/featured-topics\/talent-recruitment\/3-skills-based-hiring-practices-that-work\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">evaluate your ATS.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Automating resume reviews saves time and energy for large recruitment efforts, but it\u2019s not perfect. Don\u2019t blindly trust your ATS algorithm without understanding how it filters candidates. You might miss out on great candidates who have the right skills but don\u2019t meet certain outdated qualifications flagged by your system.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, does your ATS accept candidates who meet the required years of experience but don\u2019t have specific degrees or certifications? If certain certifications are essential, your ATS should filter for those, but if you\u2019ve updated your job descriptions to focus on skills, your ATS needs to be adjusted accordingly. Otherwise, you\u2019ll end up with the same candidates as before, despite your efforts to broaden the pool.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Evaluating your internal operations is key to making a lasting change. If you\u2019ve tried transitioning to skills-based hiring before and it didn\u2019t work, take a moment to reflect on why. Was the timing wrong? Was the implementation rushed or incomplete? When you\u2019re ready to try again (or for the first time), begin by evaluating your existing systems. Do your job descriptions align with your hiring goals? Is your ATS set up to identify the right candidates?<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Moving Forward<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you\u2019ve fine-tuned your internal processes, you\u2019re ready to take the next steps in transforming your hiring approach. If you enjoyed this part of our skills-based hiring series, stay tuned for the final part of this series, where we\u2019ll explore creative ways to enhance your application process and invest in your employees post-hire.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>In other news&#8230;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lgcassociates.com\/es\/skills-based-hiring-trend\/\"><img decoding=\"async\"
