Talentwise: Future-proof your team

* The concept of Virtual HR is not very well known in India. But it is slowly catching on, whereby people work through a virtual HRMS platform, on flexi hours. The recruitment space too is undergoing changes, where hiring can happen through automated platforms. These platforms can also evaluate candidates up to a large degree. * The old system of employing people for HR is redundant and inefficient at many levels, since tasks like fulfilling legal requirements, payrolling, tracking leave and other such regular functions can easily be performed by software. This should leave human resources to be more gainfully employed. Training and upskilling could well be one of those more creative functions. * Recruitment platforms typically have not checked for aptitude. Neither have platforms which recommend training for blue collar workers. This means that batches for training are created based on location, instead of aptitude. This results in high dropout rates and is ultimately ineffective as a scheme. 

These and more insights from the ground in this great episode of TalentWise.
