How does talent acquisition differ from recruitment?

Talent acquisition encompasses a broader, strategic approach to identifying, attracting and retaining top talent to meet long term organisational goals. Recruitment, on the other hand, typically focuses on filling immediate job vacancies with suitable candidates. While recruitment is transactional and short term, talent acquisition emphasises building a talent pipeline, employer branding and aligning hiring strategies with overall business objectives.

The key steps in the talent acquisition process include:
1. Workforce Planning: Identifying staffing needs.
2. Sourcing: Attracting potential candidates.
3. Screening: Evaluating candidate qualifications.
