Abstract
Staff recruitment and retention will be one of the success factors for companies, across the geographic and trade markets. Indeed, world population changes, the reduction of the workforce and its skills, in the next coming decades. Human capital becomes a rare resource, because, mainly, the Baby Boom generation reaches retirement. In our economy of the 21st century, this situation will be worse because of the falling birth rate and the slower population growth, the increase of the world competition and its 'brain-drain', lifestyle choices, the mismatch in demand/supply of labour within both the private and public sectors. These explanations denounce a current fact that, organizations have to worry about talent management.
