Why Good People Cant Get Jobs: The Skills Gap and What Companies Can Do About It is a short nonfiction business and labor-market book by Peter Cappelli, a Wharton management professor and specialist in human resources and talent management. Written in a direct, policy-oriented style, it questions the popular claim that unemployment is mainly caused by a simple shortage of skilled workers. Instead, Cappelli argues that many hiring problems come from the way employers recruit, screen, define jobs, and manage training. The book is less interested in individual self-help than in diagnosing organizational failures that leave positions open while qualified people remain unemployed. It examines automated applicant tracking, overly narrow job descriptions, delayed hiring decisions, and weak investment in development. The purpose is both analytical and practical: to challenge conventional wisdom about the skills gap and to show companies how they can improve hiring outcomes by changing their own practices rather than blaming the labor force.
