Problems and Countermeasures in Rural Talent Recruitment and Development

Abstract

Rural revitalization fundamentally depends on human capital development and deployment. Although China’s efforts in recruiting and developing rural talent have achieved certain progress in recent years, significant challenges persist that require urgent attention. These challenges include inefficient talent attraction channels, incomplete training mechanisms, unfavorable retention environments, and inadequate utilization platforms. Based on a systematic and comprehensive review of the current state of rural talent recruitment and development in China, this paper provides an in-depth analysis of the primary problems and their underlying causes from multiple perspectives. Furthermore, it proposes targeted policy recommendations from four interconnected dimensions: improving talent attraction mechanisms, strengthening training systems, optimizing retention environments, and building utilization platforms. This research aims to provide theoretical references and practical guidance for comprehensively promoting rural talent revitalization and supporting the broader rural revitalization strategy.
