79% Recruiters Believe Remote Hiring Is Beneficial And Productive : Report

About 79 % of employers believe that remote hiring provide better candidate reach, according to JobsForHer report.

 

The pandemic has proved to employers that remote work can be just as effective as being present full-time in an office environment. This has further encouraged many more women to start, restart and rise in their careers.

 

"'Flexible' used to be a bad word for recruiters," Neha Bagaria, Founder & CEO, JobsForHer, said. "It really took the pandemic to gain an acceptance for work from home roles."

 

To understand how recruiters are viewing this shift to work from home culture, another survey that was conducted on the platform showed 86% of employers agreed that work-from-home has opened up more job opportunities for women regardless of location and 76% said the pandemic has shifted focus on skills rather than gender in the hiring process.

 

“If we really want to see a balanced workforce with equal representation, opportunities and participation of both genders, then clearly we need more gender-neutral policies and programs in place. Time and again, it is proved that diversity is not just a hiring goal but a business imperative that improves the bottom line and increases ROI. ” Neha adds.
