Harnessing the Next Generation of Tech Talent [Splunk Business Flow]
Update: 2019-12-24
Description
Generation Z is our largest generation ever. They are over 2 billion strong and are predicted to make up nearly 30% of the workforce by 2025. Fifty percent of them are likely to have a university degree that will carry them through 17 jobs, spanning five different careers in their lifetime. So how can we harness the energy of this huge pool of "think differently," "act differently" resources? With an internship program. Learn how the Splunk ANZ team focused on addressing the staffing challenges many tech companies face, particularly with regard to promoting diversity and including underrepresented groups, such as female students studying STEM subjects. This session will review how they built an internship program that not only delivered huge value to the business, including Gen Z diversity, but also focused on transferring technical and soft skills to facilitate their transition into full-time employment.
