Orion Insights for Employers, Managers, and HR and TA Leadership

Once a player in the field, the United States semiconductor industry is experiencing drastic loss in market share and an unprecedented talent shortage.

A generic Careers website doesn't speak to veterans, since many are coming straight out of the military.

The word is out. With veteran unemployment hitting one of its lowest points in the history of the all-volunteer force during March, the need to proclaim the advantage of military hiring is clearly subsiding.

Earlier this month, Orion Talent proudly launched #PeoplewithPurpose, a podcast dedicated to building purpose-driven and inclusive cultures where employees can bring their authentic selves to work.

Laura Schmiegel, SVP of Strategic Partnerships at Orion Talent, moderated the one-hour webinar with guests Sakita Douglas, Chief Talent Officer for Harris County in Texas, and Allison Joyce, VP Talent Partner for Walmart. Their insights offered a compelling look into how to recruit and retain female talent.

U.S. Air Force Veteran William Newell recently transitioned from a 20-year military career to the civilian power sector. His story was recently featured in a POWER Magazine article by Aaron Larson, Power Industry People: Finding Top Talent in the Military, as well as on The POWER Podcast.

The world of work has transformed over the last couple of years. Remote work, flexible hours, employee well-being, and an erratic market have made workplace agility an increasingly interesting concept to businesses looking to stand out and gain a competitive edge.

“People want purpose at work.” This is what Orion Talent Sarah Peiker told Mark Feffer during her recent visit to the HCM Technology Report PeopleTech podcast.

Orion Talent CEO Sarah Peiker recently joined Meghan M. Biro, Founder of Talent Culture, for a #WorkTrends podcast episode, Diversity, Inclusion & Business Success with Military Hiring.

Our upcoming webinar, The Great Resignation: How to Bring Back (and Keep) Women in the Workforce, will explore the exodus of women from the workplace over the last two years and what businesses can do to attract and retain female employees.
