There is no doubt that whereas the continued Covid-19 countrywide lockdown has hit the economy hard, it has also stimulated job-seekers and potential employers to improvise on the recruitment process.
This was the general consensus at the recent Zoom meeting between major stakeholders in the job market, in which it was also widely agreed that the pandemic is likely to be with us for a long time yet the economy has to run, writes Ernest Jjingo.
Today, the recruitment process is mostly about ingenuity of the organisation and the prospective employee. This has placed jobs and recruitment platforms at the centre stage of the process and at the end of it all, it is about creativity and innovation.
