New age HR tech companies from Josh Bersin

Watch what Textio website says and it's quite moving..

Hire and retain a diverse team
What’s stopping you from building a diverse, high-performing team? From job posts to performance reviews, Textio removes the bias that turns your best people away.


 


 Josh Bersin's list of the top 15 HR products you must check!

My favorites after I spent time learning about them are:
1. Textio: All-time favorite
2. Paradox
3. Sana Labs
4. HiBob
5. Eightfold: Their talent acquisition product is their flagship product that has unmatched matching capabilities built-in through AI. I saw they have 14 positions in tech/engineering on LinkedIn, and most of them use the EasyApply button! They have 20 jobs posted on LinkedIn by different recruiters for Bangalore, Washington, Santa Clara, etc.
There is no consistent way of writing JD and providing information.
Director Engineering and Senior Director Engineering Delivery job posts for Bangalore look similar, but, while posted by different recruiters, have very different sets of information and formats.
US-based jobs ask for specific education (BS or MS), while Indian jobs don't ask for it. US jobs mention the range of base pay; India doesn't.
Some job posts mention Eightfold's total funding and valuation numbers, while many don't provide the same information. Indian jobs provide LinkedIn profile links for founders Varun Kacholia and Ashutosh Garg and press release links (unfortunately, LinkedIn Job post doesn't support any hyperlinks and job posting recruiters are not oblivious, right?).
I am not sure; if processes are not consistent, what greater good would AI do? In a lighter vein, AI also loves to work with smarter users :)
I am sure we recruiters will meet their minimum requirement to be consistent, compliant, and disciplined! I see a great future for Eightfold!

What is The Hay Group Total Reward Framework

The Hay Group Total Reward Framework A new way of understanding reward Reward strategies must be anchored in business reality to be effective. Which means linking it to your business strategy – and the needs of your employees as well as your organisation. Our Total Reward Framework helps you optimise reward, no matter how challenging the conditions. The issue Remuneration tends to be one of the worst-managed parts of an organisation’s cost structure. But with 10-70 per cent of total costs wrapped up in it, reward cannot be ignored, particularly in a downturn. To be effective, reward programmes must reflect the needs of the business, now and in the future. Only if they are tied closely to company strategy, business performance and the needs of employees can reward programmes deliver the ROI that is needed in tough times[MK1] . The Hay Group Total Reward Framework takes strategy as a starting point – and it focuses on total reward: every financial measure together with no...

Aon Hewitt Total Rewards Framework

Aon Hewitt Total Rewards Framework The Aon Hewitt model and approach believes in considering Total Rewards as a business tool and very much linked to overall business objectives! Reward as understood is a very complex mechanism and some efforts of correcting the base pay and titling in a hurry by many MNCs in India have done a bigger crime by trying to correct it by market adjustments without looking at the talent map, complexity and expectations out of role and mapping it against the benchmark. Titles in India are a big misnomer and hardly any survey on compensation ever probes and captures and calibrates the tangible outcome based bench marking! If we dive deep, we will find that the key factors of Education, Experience and Quality of Education, Quality and relevance of experience and education are not calculated granular! A diploma holder technical manager gets the salary benchmarked for the top T-school manager with top quality experience in a challenging and break-through...

Tech Recruiting in the AI Era: How LLMs Are Transforming Sourcing and Screening

Recruiting for technology roles has always been a high-stakes game. If sourcing and screening go well, recruiting wins; if not, it’s a black hole. These two functions are the backbone of hiring—everything else is communication. But in the age of Generative AI and Large Language Models (LLMs) , the rules have changed. The Old Way: Conventional Tech Recruiting For decades, recruiters relied on: Boolean searches on job boards and LinkedIn. ATS keyword matching for skills and experience. Hygiene checks like education, years of experience , and past employers. While these methods worked, they were rigid and often failed to capture the nuances of evolving tech roles. Recruiters were constantly playing catch-up with new stacks, frameworks, and delivery models. The Modern Way: AI-Powered Recruiting Enter LLMs and AI-driven platforms —game-changers for sourcing and screening. These tools don’t just match keywords; they understand context , generate structured outputs , and scale personalizati...
