Allegheny County 2022 Highlights Report

TALENT ACQUISITION/EMPLOYMENT TEAM DEVELOPMENT In 2022, Human Resources dedicated a new team of talent acquisition specialists to work in partnership with the HR Employment team and with other county departments.

Newly added positions include a Supervisor for Talent Acquisition/Employment and a Talent Acquisition Specialist, as well as enhanced responsibilities for the Workforce Diversity Specialist. These new resources allowed HR to increase public awareness of county job opportunities by participating in more career events, job fairs and information sessions than in the past. In addition, the HR Department has begun to research, analyze and implement more effective methods for sourcing candidates and to develop strategies and comprehensive plans to attract diverse talent for positions across the county.

The new HRIS will streamline multiple HR-related functions within one system and provide comprehensive integration with other county systems, allow more effective time management by staff, improve transparency, quality, accuracy, accessibility and security of county data, and improve service delivery through automation and centralization of data.
