7、owing the initial shock of COVID-19,most industries resumed business activity and pivoted to new streams of revenue,embracing digitalisation and accelerating innovation.Although these efforts opened more opportunities for skilled talent,they also exacerbated chronic skill shortages across the region
8、.This is particularly the case for Technology,Media and Telecommunications(TMT),a sector that displayed impressive growth throughout 2021 despite market volatility,while also fueling innovation,transformation and growth in other sectors including Banking,Financial Services and Insurance(BFSI),Health
9、care and Life Sciences,Industrial,and Consumer Goods.But the evolving nature of the TMT space has widened skill gaps,which in turn has driven up the value of skilled talent.As Singapores economy steadily recovers,businesses have also resumed hiring across most industries.While these trends may appea
10、r to be in favour of talent,caution is advised for both employers and jobseekers when setting expectations.In periods of volatility,forgoing realistic expectations can impact the prospects of both employers and talent in the eventuality of a market correction.The first step to avoiding this is under
11、standing the current sentiments of talent in Asia,their motivations and their priorities as indications of how to best attract and retain them for the year ahead.To this end,we are pleased to share with you the latest edition of our Talent in Asia report.We hope that our data-led insights will infor

52、entage(13%)even said WFH made their staff more productive.This is likely due to the prolonged nature of Singapores movement restrictions in response to the pandemic,which gave businesses and talent enough time to adapt.Considering these promising sentiments on employee productivity,a majority of emp

56、of active job seekers is on the rise and a large section of employed talent remain passively open to new opportunities.Despite employers ramping up hiring plans,this rise in activity indicates increased competition for job seekers in 2022.Serious candidates are advised to sharpen their competitive e
57、dge and maintain reasonable salary expectations in line with their experience.Starting their job search earlier may also help accommodate longer hiring processes.Our survey shows that talent expectations for salaries are significantly higher than employer expectations,increasing the likelihood of sa
58、lary mismatches when job seeking.To avoid this,talent can consider upskilling in their field,particularly in in-demand digital areas,that can boost their employability and professional value.Upskilling can also help justify higher salary expectations in the case of market corrections in favour of em

61、ome over the last two years,its only natural that company culture may suffer as a result of less face-to-face time and communication.Aside from salary and career progression,job seekers increasingly value management style and company culture when considering a new employer.As a result,leaders may ne
62、ed to upskill their management on remote leadership and consistently update their employee engagement measures.Talent expectations for salary increments are higher than employers,which could cause issues when hiring.Talent in Singapore place high value on work-life balance,which includes hybrid work
63、 arrangements,flexible working hours and remote working from other geographic locations,so ensure these key considerations are available to talent,to both attract and retain them.Our data shows that hiring demand may outpace active talent in the market,in line with chronic talent shortages that pers
