Acqui-hiring is a strategic process where a company acquires another primarily to gain its employees rather than its products or services. This approach is often used in the tech industry to quickly integrate skilled talent into the acquiring company. The term combines "acquisition" and "hiring," reflecting the focus on talent acquisition. It allows companies to fill skill gaps and enhance their workforce capabilities efficiently. Acqui-hiring can also provide a cultural fit by bringing in teams that have already worked well together.
