Q2 will see a growth in jobs: Tarun Sinha, OLX people
3rd July, 2020 | economictimes
Covid 19 and the subsequent lockdowns have had a significant impact on the economy and employment. Economic activity has shrunk and employees across sectors have faced layoffs and salary cuts.

Optimizing Human Resources: 4 Technological Innovations Transforming HR Today
25th November, 2017 | business world
The role of an Human Resources team in a company requires a macro-level engagement with the employees of a company to manage recruitment and hiring and suggesting employee training and development strategies. These activities require the HR team to have a clear idea of the skills that the company’s employees possess, will need in the short, long, and medium term future, and how to provide the required skills – either through hiring new people, or through on-the-job training. Managing a large workforce, tracking their skills, finding new talent, managing the existing talent, organizing trainings – these are all incredibly data-intensive activities, and often put substantial pressure on a company’s HR team. Given the immense pressures and challenging expectations placed upon them, it is no wonder that HR managers, even while trying to manage employee concerns, are vulnerable to stress and burning out. Further, the level of analytical work required in figuring out future requirements is often beyond the processing power of most analysts, let alone the average HR executive. The solution? The use of technology to optimize has been trending in HR, and here are 4 of the best innovations being used in HR today.

The future of recruitment: Taking the ‘Human’ out of HR?
23rd October, 2017 | varindia
In Isaac Asimov’s fantastic science fiction volumes, the early part of the 21st Century has working artificial intelligence to which much of mankind’s decisions have already been outsourced. All humans are routinely tested by the AI, which determines which career their brains are best suited for. While technology has not yet caught up with Asimov’s boundless imagination, recruitment algorithms have begun to use cutting-edge technology and pattern analyzing software to help HR personnel select the right candidate for a job.While these technologies cannot be substituted for a human’s judgement, they can process information and do the mechanical parts of the process, increasing the efficiency of the recruitment funnel. One of the biggest challenges in recruitment is getting the right kind of information that will answer questions about the candidate that are relevant to the company. Is this the kind of employee that will stay for a long period of time? Will this candidate fit in well into the team and the role? Does the candidate have the required skills? If not, does the candidate have the capacity to learn at a fast enough rate? In spite of various attempts and systems, no process can claim to capture the answers to all these questions in an efficient and accurate manner. Much of the process is eventually predicated on instinctive calls and personal opinions, which can lead to costly and time-consuming mistakes.
Festive cheer for job market
11th October, 2017 | the tribune

This demand is led by e-commerce and logistics players rushing to cope with the massive increase in order and sales volumes.
AasaanJobs registers 200 percent increase in demand for temporary workers
11th October, 2017 | business standard
One of India's leading HR marketplaces, AasaanJobs has witnessed an unprecedented surge in temporary hiring in the logistics sector, during the festive season. This demand, particularly for delivery boys and van boys, is led by e-commerce and logistics players rushing to cope with the massive increase in order and sales volumes. New Delhi, Gurgaon, Bangalore, and Mumbai are the most popular locations for these opportunities. While e-commerce and logistics companies are offering the largest numbers for these positions, the FMCG/F&B sector and the hospitality sector are also contributing substantially.
Happy Diwali for delivery boys as e-commerce sales jump
8th October, 2017 | the times of india
Bom H', 'Bom R' and 'BomS' are not the names of agents in a Hollywood spy movie but simply how 26-year-old Shamsher Shaikh's seniors identify the neighbourhoods of Ghatkopar, Bhandup and Goregaon. Mahimbased Shaikh, who became a delivery man for a leading ecommerce firm+ recently, is still too new to start calling his workspace 'Bom O' -- the official demarcation for the roads of Marol on which his second-hand scooter has done so many rounds that it feels like an extension of him.
Soon after joining, his rickety Activa had capitulated to Mumbai's rain and the delivery-bag-to ting Shaikh had to drag it to a mechanic and then to around 20 addresses waiting for their orders. The deal ended up extending his eight-hour workday by two hours and pushing his dinner to 1.30am. Yet, this father of two isn't complaining.
Like hundreds in the country, Shaikh is the beneficiary of a happy logistical problem. Every year before Diwali, when e-tailers gear up to meet the spike in demand that follows festive season discounts, men like Shaikh end up getting not only a temporary job but also unprecedented perks. Diwali's e-retail boom+ is seeing a spurt in tempo rary jobs and unusual perks for blue collar workers.
Compared to Shamsher Shaikh's earlier gigs - delivering ironed clothes for a professional laundry service for Rs 9,000 a month and towing vehicles for a Malad police chowky for Rs 350 a day - Shaikh can hope to fetch not only a monthly standard of Rs 11,600 at his new job but also an overtime of Rs 130 per hour, apart from a joining and an exit bonus that will arrive at the end of his month-long contract. It was this sum of Rs 5,000 that made Shaikh say yes to the vacancy that came to him through an HR portal.
The recent downpour of shopping bonanzas - Flipkart's The Big Billion Days, Amazon's Great Indian Festival and Snapdeal's Unbox Diwali -brought in an exceptional harvest with gross sales expected to hit up to Rs 9,000 crore, a 40% jump over last year, as per industry estimates. Such graphs find recruitment agencies excitedly talking about "sourcing network" and "hiring pipeline" - things they must strengthen to meet projections.
Dinesh Goel, co-founder and CEO of Aasaanjobs, an HR portal for entry-level jobs which is now working with five e-commerce players in Mumbai, says it is typical for demand for delivery boys to outstrip supply at this time of year. This is why "companies fight with each other for the limited pool of delivery boys by luring them with incentives like overtime, joining bonus and exit bonus", says Goel, whose firm has had to up its game with each passing year. "Earlier, we only did field activities to source last-mile workers," he says, referring to the recruitment drives held chiefly in colleges. "Now, we have started running referral programs to incentivize to help us source more," adds Goel, who has seen a "250-300%" jump in job applications this season.

The Science Of Hiring With Big Data

The economy of the country is picking up pace and this has led to an increase in the attrition rate of private sector employees. However, it is a globally known fact that retaining and employee costs less than hiring a replacement and this classic rule of thumb still stands true as ever, for any organisation. The real cost of hiring and training replacements make a significant dent in any organisation’s bottom line. Therefore, it would be great to incorporate a solution into the hiring system of every organisation that could enable prediction as to who is likely to be a successful, long-term employee before the candidate is hired.
