Abstract: The present work aimed to explore the process for identifying talent pools within Tunisian companies to implement individual development plans, thereby reducing brain drain abroad. Despite the importance of this research topic for the labor market, it remains little explored by practitioners and theorists in the field of talent management. In response to this challenge, we conducted 45 semi-structured interviews with human resources professionals and talent pools from five international Tunisian companies specializing in IT (Sofrecom, Vermeg, and Leoni) and telecommunications (Orange Group and Ooredoo). The data were analyzed using NVivo 10 software based on thematic content analysis. The findings enabled us to present the characteristics of a talented employee and the talent management practices used by human resources managers to identify key individuals in the Tunisian context.
