#3 It’s Not a Labour Shortage. It’s a Hiring System Problem.

Everyone’s blaming the labour shortage right now but the real issue? Most businesses don’t have a hiring system. They’ve got chaos.

In this episode of Leader Scout, Tom unpacks what he is seeing across construction and infrastructure:

Good people are hard to find but not impossible
The teams still winning? They’ve built structure. Process. Speed.
The rest? They’re stuck in reactive mode, bleeding time and talent

I’ll walk through how we fix this at People8 and how to stop hiring like it’s 2015. If you’re still posting ads, hoping for the best, and calling it a recruitment strategy… this one’s for you.
