'Quiet hiring' will dominate the U.S. in 2023, says HR expert--and you need to prepare for it [View all]

Quiet hiring is when an organization acquires new skills without actually hiring new full-time employees, says Emily Rose McRae, who has led Gartner’s future of work research team since its 2019 inception, focusing on HR practices.

Sometimes, it means hiring short-term contractors. Other times, it means encouraging current employees to temporarily move into new roles within the organization, McRae says.

The old, "doing more with less", b.s. that has dominated corporate America for decades.
