Talent
Becoming an "employer of choice" is an important goal at Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation. The focus is on attracting, developing and retaining high performing, talented and committed people with diverse backgrounds and perspectives.
We understand that competition for talent is growing with each passing day. Rapid technological change, globalization, the demand for skills and education, an aging workforce and greater ethnic diversification in the consumer and labor market have forever changed the employment landscape.1 Our ability to "cast the net wider and deeper" to identify and attract a more diverse pool of high-caliber candidates will determine our ability to execute our business strategy.
Through our partnerships, collaborations and sponsorships of professional and community organizations, we have access to many diverse groups. Attracting the talent within these organizations and bringing their multiple perspectives to Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation allows for our continued innovation, creativity and growth.
