But employers have not been resting on their laurels when it comes to securing top talent to drive business growth. “Many organisations have been ramping up their efforts in investing in their employer value propositions to attract the best talent in the market, through professional social media networking and online content marketing,” said Grant Torrens, regional director at Hays Singapore.
