Brandon Hall Group's 2021 Talent Acquisition Benchmarking Survey provides a big picture look at talent acquisition from sourcing through onboarding. We examine the criticality of organizations' practices and how effectively they implement those practices.

Past Brandon Hall Group research has shown that candidate experience and onboarding solutions are hallmarks of best-in-class talent acquisition technology, but in these volatile times, is that still the case? Having a  formal talent acquisition technology strategy and roadmap, predictive analytics, organizational skills, TA project and time management, strategic planning and execution, and data science techniques are all critical skills in a successful TA professional.


This research will look at historical markers of success, find out what top-performing organizations are doing to make full use of emerging technologies, and see what challenges organizations are facing.  Creating a more fair, data-driven approach to finding talent has two effects – it both gives employers a more accurate view of potential employees but also gives candidates a feeling of fairness which will spread, and create a better employer brand for early adopters of this method

This survey will take 15-20 minutes to complete. To show our appreciation for your time, those who complete the survey and provide their email will receive:
  • A summary report of the survey results after data is cleaned and analyzed.
  • Immediate download access to the Brandon Hall Group strategy brief, How to Connect the Essential Elements of Talent Acquisition.

Your information will only be used for aggregate research purposes and to deliver your research summary results and complimentary research paper. If you provide permission, you also may be contacted by an analyst to request a qualitative research interview about the survey topic.
