Talview, a technology-focused HR company, reveals that 80% of survey respondents have shifted their interviewing and hiring practices to 100% remote. The remote hiring trends for 2021 survey polled companies in more than 20 countries and spanning 15 industries.
The top positions for remote hiring, according to the survey, include technical/engineering (60.1%), management (54.5%), sales and marketing (51%), operations and finance (49%) and HR (39.2%).
Some companies have ditched background checks and drug screenings and have reduced their travel cost as they search out candidates on a much wider field remotely.
