JULIANA MUMBUA MUTINDA

Abstract: Talent acquisition has become a strategic alignment to bring congruence between people and purpose. Talent acquisition is arguably the most dynamic and most complex area of talent management and is the area of human capital management most critical to the business strategy. The outlook towards talent acquisition is changing and what was once called a ‘workforce’ evolved into ‘human capital’ and is now known as ‘talent’. Talent acquisition has therefore made recruitment today a strategic and competent driven business function. This paper uses a descriptive approach through an analysis of secondary data and attempts to articulate the prospects and challenges that are likely to confront organization’s talent acquisition today and in the future. Keywords: Talent, Talent acquisition, Talent management.
