1. Social Media Handling
I know what you must be thinking; social media is not a skill!
Well, the entire world has become social these days with the help of social media and it is thus critically important to have a good presence on such networks.
Any HR professional who knows how to search social media sites and reach out to the potential new hires, who possess the requisite skill set for a “hard-to-fill” job position, can give a real edge to your organisation.
Having basic knowledge of how a social media tool or platform works will allow the HR function to screen various potential job candidates, give them cold calls, check the history of new recruits, and so on. Additionally, HR professionals must know how and where to use the social networking tools in order to support the HR function and should be aware of the corresponding legal implications as well.
2. Human Resources Information Software
A Human Resources Information Software (HRIS) is a great example of the intersection of IT and HR through software. Having HR professionals in your team who already know how HRIS works could save your business plenty of time and effort.
Such tools enable several of your HR team processes and tasks to occur electronically and thereby gives HR professionals more time to focus on work, such as HR planning and strategizing, which require manual inputs.
Thus, a certification in HRIS could be a must-have tech certification that could help you shortlist your ideal HR candidates.
3. Applicant Tracking Systems
Gone are the days when HR professionals sorted through potential candidates’ resumes by hand!
With the number of job applicants reaching the sky in the overall job market, organisations now receive a truckload of CVs. This is where a team of HR professionals who are well versed in the use of Applicant Tracking Systems (ATSs) can quickly sort out the resumes, especially during major walk-in job drives or referral drives.
Many of the top enterprises do not even spend time to look at most CVs; this is because around 90% of them use ATS to pass the data from the resumes and match them against the database. Such a process helps to shortlist only the ideal candidates for a particular job profile.
