If you like historical data charts, read on. In the right column at the bottom of our blog under Links of Interest, we have posted historical data charts from our past research. On the Taleo Research Trend Watch page, you will find talent management data going back to 1998. Recent stats are not included, but can be found in our latest reports.

Looking back, we see how little the core issues have changed. For instance, 80% of candidates found it important or very important to have salary range information posted on a career website in 2001.

If you take a look back at the trends, you may find that the keys to successful talent initiatives today are sometimes the same. In other words, don’t forget the basics!

Enjoy the reading.
