We solve the talent mobility problems for the people NOT IN your hiring process.
We solve the talent mobility problems for the people NOT IN your hiring process. In video and elsewhere on this site, you will see evidence from journalists, critical government advisors, sector-specialized consultants, leading academics, and even the Taoiseach discussing Ireland's National Development Plan.
The programme is equivalent to circa €1,000 a minute invested from now and all the other 4.9 million minutes until the end of 2035; a workforce of 130,000 is needed to deliver it. Greater levels of people joining construction and infrastructure will be part of it, but experienced hiring is already a problem. #WVH already has the most data on Ireland's NDP workforce recruitment and retention.
Unless we engineer it, we will end up with a very male workforce, with poor retention and high costs due to additional services which our technology removes. #WVH does currently create housing in Ireland, but that is because it's the main issue stopping the near-shore, more balanced, and often more technical talent from joining in. (as well as our own coming back)
However, our USP is to fix all problems at scale. It takes a Village.
