Vyre

  • Found in: January 2017
  • Founders:  Sudev Das, Devesh Taneja
  • Based out of: Bengaluru
  • USP: It is an early talent discovery platform that uses video, crowdsourced ratings and intelligence to help employers find and engage with job seekers at the beginning of the hiring process. 

Screening candidates for a job is a tedious, and often a time-consuming process — but it is a necessity. Recruiters spend countless hours going through pages upon pages of resumes — which often turn out to be frustratingly identical. Vyre has been created to help make the life of a recruiter — easier and simpler.

It is an early talent discovery platform that uses video, crowdsourced ratings and intelligence to help employers find and engage with job seekers at the beginning of the hiring process. Vyre’s mission is to help candidates break free from the shackles of regimented paper resumes and really express themselves through video profiles thereby highlighting their “real” self to employers.

The 90-second video profile that the candidates upload, can help recruiters screen better than a text resume or phone screening. 

Vyre gives a more authentic and genuine picture of the individual, instead of simply a list of their background experience and skills. It can give a complete 360-degree insight into who the person is, what their core personality is, and whether they can fit into or adjust with a company’s culture or not. 

culturro

  • Founders: Ashish Manchanda, Riti.V.Srivastava 
  • Based out of: Gurugram
  • USP: Culturro helps companies build the right workplace experience to drive towards their desired strategic objectives.

Employee productivity has been an age-old problem for organizations and it remains a problem area despite several cracks at it. Current solutions typically remain at a symptom level and seldom go to the cause level of low employee productivity. At the core of employee productivity sits the organization's culture and the alignment of its employees with the same. Culture has hygiene factors and motivational factors that impact an employee's productivity.

But how do you tangibilize culture or Workplace Experience (WE) in a more holistic manner, and its alignment in the organization? In comes Culturro to help organizations measure the Workplace Experience and its alignment with a company's strategic objectives. 

Culturro's core offering, Agnya, enables organizations to measure their Workplace Experience aligning with employee's professional and psychological needs. Agnya, with its quantification on 10 WE KPIs and 30 WE sub-KPIs across various cuts of organizational demographics, allows the senior HR Leaders to see into the unseen of the company culture. This is coupled with Culturro's other offerings to identify the root cause of culture strengths and weaknesses.

Armed with pertinent insights and the reasons that are causing anomalies, HR leaders can design very pointed interventions and generate maximum possible ROI. The tangible ROI is measured through the change in employee productivity and attrition.
