1. Implement Trial Employment for Skills-Based Hires: For example, allowing a trial period for non-traditional hires lets managers assess skills and fit without long-term commitment. For instance, a mid-sized tech company might offer a three-month trial for a non-degreed IT candidate, evaluating their problem-solving and coding skills before making a permanent offer.

A manufacturing firm could promote a skilled machinist to a supervisory role based on their performance and leadership potential, demonstrating trust in skills over formal education.
