Technology + Transparency = Helps you hire better

    PingMyCompany.com was started with a pure and simple intention to gather more data about ourself as a firm and know about others too. I have explained it before and Rashid also shared his development story

    Now after 3 months since its launch I have witnessed a change which I was hoping to happen but didnt expected to happen so quickly. Before PingMyCompany’s launch people hardly knew about Zigron and what it does. It was very hard for us to get the talent which was a right fit. Yes we had our portfolio out in public but it was hard to attract potential hires as they were never the target individuals for those projects.

    Now during interviews when I ask potential candidates what they know about Zigron and the first thing they say is “PingMyCompany”. 

    PMC has not only helped us get our name out but most importantly it has helped us attract the right talent. We were getting alot of resumes but most of them didnt really matched our needs but after PMC the quality of resumes have improved dramatically. We are still getting the same number of resumes but now we are getting individuals who really understand what we do and how they can be part of it.

    So the take away from all this is that companies need to create more engaging experiences for their future hires through technology and transparency. There has never been a better time to do this as technology to build such experiences and means to reach out has never been so cost effective ever in the history of mankind.

    Considering all this we are working on upgrading PingMyCompany.com to create more engaging experience, so stay tuned via PMC blog and twitter feed.

    Please feel to share your own ideas on how firms can create such experiences in different fields to attract top and most importantly the right talent.
