Closing the experience gap – Rethinking how we hire and grow talent

Organizations are facing an “experience gap” as traditional pathways for gaining work experience erode, driven by factors like automation, remote work, and growing job complexity. While demand for experienced talent rises, many struggle to build the experience needed, even as human capabilities like curiosity and adaptability become more valued. In this webinar, Deloitte and Eightfold will explore why these pathways are breaking down—and how leading organizations are redefining “experience” to build more inclusive, sustainable talent strategies. We’ll discuss reimagining entry-level roles, leveraging AI, and using on-the-job learning to close the experience gap and strengthen future talent pipelines. Speakers: David Mallon, Managing Director, Deloitte Consulting LLP Theresia Hermes, Director of Customer Success, Eightfold AI
