While there are a lot of expectations that recruiters are looking after especially in the year 2023; here’s what top recruiters have to say regarding the hiring process in 2023. These will also throw light onto how recruitment automation will play a major role in the hiring domain while benefitting recruiters who are focusing on large-volume hiring.

DC Priyan, CEO, Star Squared PR
“Building a culture that is honest, friendly, and transparent is fundamental to growth, especially in 2023. Empathy will also play a pivotal role as we look at building a more collaborative workforce in volatile times like Covid and the impending economic scenario.”
Ramit Tyagi, Hiring leader of Global Product Organisation
“I think hiring opportunities are increasing here in the Indian market in the year 2023. Especially with so many opportunities, the talent is flowing back to India. Apart from looking into just the salary opportunities candidates must look into the learning opportunities, the stability, and the culture.”

“While remote hiring has been in trend for the past few years, I think 2023 will find more face-to-face interviews and hence the hybrid model of work being emerged. This will help recruiters judge the candidate’s characteristics, point of view, entrepreneurial orientation, innovative mindset, agility, resilience, and perseverance to work.”

“At least when we are recruiting at Lenskart today, you know, whether it’s an HR professional, a store manager, or a Sales executive they all take a Data Analysis, Data Interpretation, and Excel test. And for that also we use technology. We have aspiring minds. Recruitment Automation becomes a boon here. So I guess it’s really critical in building a high-performing organization.”
Sarang Bobade, Co-founder, DonateKart
“Social sector not only runs on Empathy and Compassion but also requires folks who can drive growth. At DonateKart, what we look for in a candidate is an entrepreneurial spirit to solve social issues and scale the impact. This continues to be our agenda in 2023 hiring.”
