How can employers recruit young talent? Ultimately I think the key is not necessarily changing the way they recruit, but rather the way they think about young talent. Employers have to step out of their old ways and start from a place of true understanding about the personalities and preferences of the new generations. The ideals, preferences, methods of communication, ways of solving problems and work ethics are so vastly different for young folks that recruitment mentalities must be created to speak to these differences in a way that the new generation of insurance professionals can connect to.
