Talent Management Hub

 

Talent Management Hub

 

 

The hub on Talent Management on Academia and the Public Sector was built bottom-up with a key consortium from the Euraxess network. The goal was to take advantage of the whole pool of expertise of the EURAXESS network, its strengths and diversity, existing patterns of collaboration and networking in all areas of the hub. All efforts to serve researchers at our institutions better.

The team worked with innovative methods on the contents of Talent Management along the three axes of recruitment and careers including novel skills; recruitment and careers in the public sector, gender activities and gender equality plans and learning more on young researchers’ research careers and social media, career stories.

If you are a researcher in Academia or the Public sector, if you are a Euraxess member advising and supporting researchers in their career development in Academia and the Public Sector, this hub on Talent Management might be of interest to you.

The Hub is specifically targeting on learning and mastering innovative skills, an overview and recommendations on gender research, gender policies and specific funding options for women in science, learn about recruitment and careers in the public sector and read career stories which might surprise you in method and content

Gender equality

Gender in research and innovation is an increasingly important topic to be considered throughout all stages of research, talent management and policy decisions. Not only do facts and figures show repeatedly alarming realities on gender in research but also is there evidence that a thoughtful involvement of gendered thinking in R&I results in better research, better talent retention and better general outcomes.

Good practices for instruments to recruit talents towards the public sector

The expectations a researcher has when transitioning from academia to the non-academic public sector; and vice-versa, the employer's expectation when hiring a researcher coming from academia are two perspectives that you will find relevant tools for in this section. Both researcher positions and other type of positions that could fit researchers well are considered. The tools are based on the Charter & Code setting the baseline for the HR values found in Academia.

These tools are targeted towards employers, employees (researchers) and EURAXESS centres.

Using social media to trigger young people's interests in research

In today's world, social media is crucial when reaching out to a younger target group. They are almost all early adopters of the newest platforms and use social media a lot to find information and get entertained. If the researcher communities want to reach out to that specific target group they will need to be present where the teenagers are and understand their online behaviour to reach out to them. In this section you will find tools to help you with that. You will find templates to use to plan your social media presence and you will find ideas on how to have a sustainable online channel in the most suitable platform for you.

The tools are targeted towards researchers and EURAXESS centres helping researchers with their social media presence or any one interested in social media

Career stories

For young people, pursuing a straight academic career often seems the only way forward. The collected career stories disprove stereotypes and paint a different picture. Scientific careers with unconventional choices such as moving in and out of academia, doing a PhD in the public sector or starting your academic career later are all equally rewarding paths forward. Further, the stories touch important topics such as female in more male dominated areas, finding personal and career enrichment by moving abroad, making your passion your job and combining family and career.

The common and inspiring message is clear: find your individual career path that suits you best!
