In this episode, Troy Gelsky, Director of Client Services at VAR Staffing, discusses the current labor shortage and ways to overcome that challenge with host Ryan Goodman. How can MSPs and other technology firms fill open positions and boost employee satisfaction (to avoid losing valued team members)? Troy emphasizes that while there is always a shortage of quality talent, especially those with IT knowledge and experience, the pandemic is complicating the normal hiring and retention problems. Finding good people to fill gaps or expand the organization can be a major challenge for MSPs today. Employing the standard hiring and retention techniques is a great start. However, after getting a taste of a WFH environment, recruits may be looking for more flexible workplace options and different time commitments. MSPs should rethink their recruitment processes and continually evaluate the pool of candidates in their communities. Now is the perfect time to mix things up.     What else can IT services professionals do to fill current job openings and potential new positions? Learn about some of the most cost-effective options in this best practices-laden episode of Confessions of an IT Business Owner.
