"A few months ago, I attended a conference on organizational learning and development and was thrilled to see all of the breakthrough innovations in that realm. Employers are now in a good position to offer cafeteria-style learning and development opportunities to their staff, thus enabling workers to customize their own career development paths. Given that today's workforce is more diverse and more mobile than ever, this is a huge breakthrough in helping to retain the top talent. If I were fortunate enough to be your next HR Consultant, this is definitely an area where I would be focused on new and innovative technologies in the near future."

As businesses and industries evolve, expand and innovate, the Human Resources staff need to keep up with innovation to implement new technologies, methods, and ideas to meet the needs of both the organization and its workforce. If asked this question during your interview, your interview definitely sees a growing need for innovation and will task their next HR Consultant for being an agent of change in this realm. Before your interview, be sure to study up and think of creative ways to see innovation impacting the HR world. If possible, do as much research on this organization to try and match new and innovative ways of thinking to help their business grow and thrive for years to come.

"In my mind, recruitment will be most impacted by innovation in the coming years, just like it has been over the last five to ten years as well. New and innovative sourcing will be essential to finding the right candidates for hard-to-fill positions, especially given the shortage of qualified candidates in a lot of important fields. To add to this, I am a proponent of hiring candidates with soft skills that include change management skills, innovation, and creativity. I think that employers need to focused on hiring the right people with these skills when they are often overlooked during candidate screening and interview processes."
