Working remotely is seen as a productive option and the best means for everyone to work in the comfort of their place anywhere in the world. and this is also what Human Resources (HR) teams prioritized to skyrocket their workplace agenda and retention rates. These transformations in the U.S. manufacturing industry have taught employers and workers a lot of things, however, the most crucial is how adaptable the workforce and organizations are and can be. 

We should be optimistic that the future of work is going to be great but technology has a great role to play. Part of this technology is the talent marketplace. It has the potential of creating a great future workforce for U.S manufacturing companies.

According to Deloitte recent studies show there are thousands of talented employees searching for job opportunities. Currently, 65.8% of employees are into job hunting because they want better opportunities.  Other employees also believe there are more opportunities outside their current employer and are looking to pursue another career. This is where the talent marketplace comes into play.

 

With the increasing number of people who desire to explore other opportunities in another field, we can say the talent marketplace is the future of work. If the U.S. manufacturing industry can make use of this opportunity, a booming future is assured in the industry because they would have a pool of talents ready to work within the organization.

The talent marketplace will enable the manufacturing industry to have access to diverse talents now and in the future. It will also focus on internal recruitment rather than external recruitment. It will make boundaries and career trajectories much more permeable and multi-directional. 

It is calculated that in 2030, there would be over 2 million unfilled positions in the skill gap in the manufacturing industry. However, with technology like the talent marketplace, the future can be determined and more talent can be trained to close the skill gaps of today and the future manufacturing industry. This in turn makes the future of U.S manufacturing companies more promising. 

The talent marketplace is built around the ontology of skills, the accumulation of talents, the interest of workers and HR leaders, and the organizational demand for an effective talent workforce. So much of what the future workplace of the US manufacturing industry looks like is much of advanced strategy and finding the right talented employees.

The marketplace will also allow the organization to develop a future-focused workplace strategy to accommodate new workers and create improved production.

In conclusion, due to the huge U.S manufacturing workers shortage, the talent marketplace is seen as the solution provider to correct the growing skill gaps and make workers available in the future for increased production.
