The rules of job hiring are most likely to change in a post-COVID world. The human resource hiring and staffing process, so far, has been completely manual, but, plenty of employers are turning to the online talent industry now. That is where platforms like SCIKEY, which has been in the online talent business, become extremely relevant and useful. Started in 2018, the SCIKEY Talent Commerce is an Online Managed Talent Marketplace that provides talent to employers globally through its automated talent platforms and delivery ecosystem. Karunjit Kumar Dhir, Co-founder, SCIKEY tells us more about its functions and how it can help job seekers and employers at a time like this.
At a time like this, when thousands have lost jobs, how will this platform help?
SCIKEY has launched the 'Jobseeker-to-Jobsecure' initiative to connect job seekers with employers. As the COVID-19 impact forces many employers to downsize their company, taking the unemployment rates to an all-time high, SCIKEY is offering the entire platform at zero cost to provide a stimulus to the economy. Job seekers can register and upload their profile through the jobseekers tab on the SCIKEY Talent Commerce Platform or even create fresh digital resume called Fresume under the Services tab on the job seeker page. Employers can register on the platform and can confidentially access the resumes of the impacted employees on SCIKEY. Our algorithm will put impacted employees as first preference for any new opening. Employers can also list all their active jobs for new hiring. Finally, we are not restricted to just full-time jobs, but also contract jobs, remote working opportunities and soon releasing even freelance work that can be extended to all such impacted people.
Why is SCIKEY different from other platforms?
The marketplace is supported by a socially enabled AI-powered talent commerce platform that reduces the time and cost of employer-jobseeker matchmaking by upto 70% and is fully managed. Our patented MindMatch algorithm enables behavioural matching as well as skill matching of the candidate for any job on the run that is highly accurate and a huge value add for companies who have only mechanism to match skills so far. Unlike other job portals, employers on SCIKEY Talent Commerce can post any number of jobs and get interested candidates free of charge. Unlike other job boards, SCIKEY uses social ecosystem and combines every source of resume collection including a crowd ecosystem. SCIKEY also takes on the role of a service provider wherever it is needed.
To what extent does SCIKEY use AI?
SCIKEY uses AI in its above matching process. The AI engine matches behaviour and skills of the candidate with the job using our MindMatch algorithm. The SCIKEY MindMatch Algorithm can map a professional's mindset that is based on a set of questions that understand the individual's emotional quotient, ego filters, aspirations and belief levels, habits and the ecosystem disturbances that cause distractions and stress in a professional’s life. This data is further filtered to derive professional behavioral elements of any individual and is termed as Mindset Map.
