siliconindia | | February 202119The Covid-19 pandemic has major upheavals in every industry and the HR industry is no different. Because of the pandemic, the old ways of doing things have been rendered obsolete. In their place, new trends like work-from-home are popping up that meet the requirements of the changed scenario. The adoption of these trends, however, requires certain changes in the existing HR infrastructure. Let us take a look at what the HR sector will look like in the post-pandemic phase as WFH becomes a norm.VIRTUAL RECRUITMENT AND FLEXI-STAFFINGWhile online recruitment had already been gaining popularity for the past few years, the pandemic has catalyzed the phenomenon. Earlier, certain elements of recruitment and onboarding were conducted online, but now the organizations have been forced to shift entire processes to online platforms.This trend will continue in the future as well and combined with the WFH model, it will allow the organizations to hire the most suitable candidates for the jobs without worrying about geographical limitations. Instead of permanently hiring employees for temporary job roles, the HR department would prefer subcontracting suitable candidates. This will not only reduce unnecessary spending but will also allow organizations to hire candidates who are specialists in their domain.By Ajay Kapur, Founder & Managing Director, Shubham Chemicals & SolventsEnthralling beliefs on `Destiny changes one future, but determination may change one's destiny, too', he is contributing development of the future generation for the last 28 years and has won "Innovative Business Leader of Asia" award for Excellence in Business Development at the 16th South Asian Excellence Awards ­ 2018.WHAT WILL THE HR DEPARTMENTS LOOK LIKE IN THE POST NORM OF #WFH?
