Challenges and Solution of The Staffing Problem
SOURCING TECHNICAL MANPOWER – Recruitment of this technical manpower with experience in Automobile testing was a challenge as Madhya Pradesh does not have similar talent pool availability. All the candidates needed to be sourced from the PAN India location and relocated to the state. Kaapro was also required to provide a minimum of 5 thoroughly screened candidates for interview for each position to enable the Client to close the position.
LOGISTICS COORDINATION – There was a unique challenge of logistics coordination of all the candidates traveling for an interview as a panel of interviewers were to interview and select the candidates for staffing hence all the shortlisted candidates needed to be present on the designated date of interview.
PRE INTERVIEW DOCUMENTATION – Being a GOI project, special care had to be taken regarding the authenticity of the documents of the candidates. Kaapro collected the required credentials of the candidate before the interview and shared with the client.
Finally, focused sourcing, seamless coordination with client & candidate by our team helped us to close all the positions and candidates joined as per planned schedule.
