Talent attraction and recruitment is the first step in identifying, screening, and selecting talent for a particular job role in Social Purpose organizations (SPOs). Effective recruitment strategies bring the right candidate on board so that the effectiveness and performance of the SPO is enhanced. Conversely, when SPOs do not find the right candidate, they prefer not to hire, worrying that a wrong hire might negatively affect the organization.

Only 5% of SPOs in India Are ‘Beginners’ in Data Use, Shows ISDM CDSSI’s State of the Sector Report

This article in Marksmen Daily reports on the State of the Sector study by ISDM CDSSI, highlighting that while only 5.3 per cent of Indian Social Purpose Organisations are “Beginners”, a substantial 70 per cent remain at mid-level maturity. The text explores a critical capacity gap: although 66 per cent of organisations view data as essential, only 10 per cent possess dedicated in-house technical teams. It identifies that data use is currently skewed towards programme design and donor reporting rather than holistic organisational management. The authors advocate for a cultural transition, urging the sector to move from data for compliance to data for collaborative learning.
