6 WAYS - HIRING IN THE MIDST OF CORONAVIRUS

We are continuously hearing news of nearly every industry being negatively impacted by the pandemic, businesses losing out on cash and laying off workers. Approximately, 8 in 10 companies have postponed hiring and laid off staff. Despite this backdrop, there’s a silver lining. Some start-ups are looking at this as an opportunity to hire good talent and are also providing employees with more benefits and resources. Here are six entrepreneurs talking about hiring in the midst of coronavirus.

1. “We took lockdown and its consequences as an opportunity to interact with some extraordinary talents and explore the synergies to join us on our mission to enable Bharat to transform social capital to financial independence through short videos in regional languages. We did not do a single lay off, and continue to strengthen the team with the right fits who share the same passion, ambition and motivation.” VARUN SAXENA, CO-FOUNDER AND CEO BOLO INDYA

2. “Bobble AI takes this as an opportunity to back those extraordinary talents and indulge them into its highly flexible, innovation-driven, and empowering workspace. We are committed to excellence and ensure our newly hired team members graduate risk-free to their full potential, while we take care of everything else that might be bothering them in this fundamentally changed world.” ANKIT PRASAD, FOUNDER, AND CEO, BOBBLE AI
