Talent + Hiring
Government talent is the foundation of strong government service delivery, so hiring, retaining, and up-skilling the government workforce is critical.
People as strategy
Functional and human-centered government services require smart, thoughtful, and intentional planning, development, execution, and iteration. As governments strive to build digital service delivery functions within their organizations, it is critical that attracting, hiring, and growing talent be at the center of that strategy. For many organizations, though, the positions and skill sets required may be new to government classifications and requirements.
On this page, you will find resources and examples of how governments at all levels are approaching talent, with job descriptions, hiring practices, and more.
