Abstract

The aim of this study was to examine the influence of human resources information sharing system on talent acquisition and retention in commercial banks in Nigeria. In order to complete this research, quantitative research methods were chosen for the completion of this study. This implied the use of questionnaire survey for data collection and reliance on descriptive statistics for the analysis of the data collected via structured questionnaire. Based on the findings, the research made the following conclusions. Firstly, this research concluded that the usage of human resource information systems was gradually increasing across the Nigerian banking sector. This was believed to be the case as more commercial banks became aware of the human resource information system and its subsequent advantages. Secondly, this research concluded that human resource information system positively influenced talent attraction and retention in organisations. This was achieved by creating the perfect conditions to enable employees thrive and to also consider remaining within the organization. This research also made the recommendation that the Nigerian banking sector should consider regular communication and updates to facilitate engagement of candidates and guaranteeing a pipeline of qualified candidates for future openings within the organization.
