S8 E10: Smells Like Money Podcast – Keys to Attracting Young Talent

In this episode, we interview James Moss, a wastewater specialty recruiter with Pivot Search. We discuss the challenges the wastewater industry faces in recruiting and retaining talent, especially the younger generation. James emphasizes that older workers are leaving the workforce, which is causing a shortage in the industry. We discuss how competitive salaries, work-life balance, shared values, a positive work environment, and defined career paths can help attract and retain top talent. Modern technologies like AI and data analytics are becoming increasingly relevant in wastewater management, and we discuss their potential to entice a younger workforce. James emphasizes the advantages of partnering with specialized recruiters to assist businesses in efficiently locating the most qualified candidates. Listen to the podcast to learn more!
