| @ Joshua Allen: I wonder what you mean by "limit" and what type of applicant you consider a talent. I have worked with three German companies in China, and all of them had one common problem: Most vacancies were filled (based on this observation, your statement that there are not enough jobs is right), but almost none of the employees could be considered a talent. Most of them only carried out orders given by superiors. Initiative, proactive suggestions for process improvements, sparking creative ideas were virtually zero. As long as there's no other choice, you must fill the empty spots with what you get. You can't leave them vacant. But that doesn't mean that all your hirings are "talents". It takes an eternity to even discover a talent. So in this sense, yes, there is a limit on how fast you can find talents. And that means, the quantity of talent is insufficient. Otherwise recruiters wouldn't even have to interview applicants anymore, but could instead just take some employment contracts to the campus and go for signature-hunting. As for your US example: Sure, in every country, there are extraordinarily talented people. And every company in developed countries welcomes them. However, that example only tells us that there is a talent gap in the US. It provides no information as to whether there is a talent gap or a talent glut in any country other than the US. |
