Resumen
La pandemia de COVID-19 aceleró los procesos de transformación digital de las empresas a nivel global. Ello impactó en la gestión de recursos humanos, particularmente el reclutamiento y selección de personal. Para entender dicho proceso, esta investigación entrevista a 17 gerentes de empresas globales y latinoamericanas sobre atracción de talento en tiempos de cambio tecnológico y sometió sus perspectivas a un análisis temático. El principal hallazgo fue la identificación de 4 temas que reflejan las principales inquietudes empresariales: desafíos en la incorporación de talento, tendencias sobre reclutamiento digital, reconocimiento de nuevas competencias (como el fit cultural) y reconocimiento de diferencias individuales. Finalmente, se mencionan algunas limitaciones y recomendaciones.
