The current global pandemic has changed many aspects of our lives.
On the professional front, remote working positions or WFH opportunities have increased considerably and this trend is predicted to continue for a while.
Another result of the pandemic has been a rise in demand for Technical professionals such as IT Engineers, Data Analysts and IT Security Network Engineers.
No focus on core business
IT companies are getting financially stressed and are not able to focus on their core business. Their financial costs have increased due to internal recruitment and training. This has resulted in elevated costs per hire which is affecting their profits.
Extra replacement costs and efforts
There is also extra expenditure when team members leave unexpectedly and new ones are required to replace them. It takes money, time and effort to find fitting replacements. Sometimes, they have to settle for workers who are over experienced and charge more.
Lack of internal HR Team
When there is no dedicated HR team, IT employees need to pitch in and complete the recruitment, interview or training tasks on their own. This again distracts them from their true jobs and KRA’s.
Inability to expand and grow
Even if some IT companies that are ready to expand and grow their business, they are unable to, due to the lack of employees during these times. This results in missed opportunities and further losses.
End-end HR capabilities
Professional recruitment companies offer end-to end human resource services that cater to all recruitment needs. Right from marketing your vacancies, scouting for potential candidates, screening and selecting, negotiating and finally hiring the best ones.
On-site consulting teams
