From this week I will publish weekly reports on the development of the project.

Key events of this week:

  • Organizing a business breakfast for HR: Recruitment and Blockchain.
  • Article publication on Forklog (it’s the largest portal about cryptocurrency and blockchain technology in Russia).
  • Moderation of the HR panel at the BAZAAR Tech Convention, on November 18.
  • Team expansion: +2 advisors.

Business breakfast

On November 8, at the Savva Hotel, we held a business breakfast for HR directors and professional recruiters. The main topic of this event was about how the blockchain can help recruiters. The meeting turned out to be interactive with a lot of communication and feedback from HR directors.

Everyone ended up with the conclusion that the main problem in hiring a new employee is the lack of reliable information about the candidate. More detailed report on the business breakfast you can read in this article.

The meeting demonstrated the real interest in Aworker. One of the companies showed interest in cooperation with us after the release of the beta version. Although we did not even talk about it. The company’s director came up after the event and began asking about different options of cooperation. Now it’s in the discussion phase. I can’t reveal the name of the company yet. I will write about this after signing a preliminary agreement.

Publishing an article on Forklog

On Monday Forklog published as the Topic of the Day my article “The future of HR: how the blockchain can change the recruitment process” (in Russian). It’s very good, considering that Forklog is №1 media about cryptocurrencies and blockchain in Russia.

Forklog: «Будущее HR: как блокчейн может изменить подбор персонала»

Moderation of HR panel at BAZAAR Tech Convention

Representatives of Aworker (including myself) will moderate the HR panel at the first forum of innovation and technology within the BAZAAR Tech Convention. This event will be held on November 18 in Moscow at the VEB Center of Blockchain Competence and the NUST MISiS.

Therefore, after the business breakfast, for the rest of the week, Michael (HR partner of Aworker) devoted to harmonizing the program and selecting speakers for the HR panel.

The HR panel will be held for the heads of the largest corporate universities and HR-services. Here we will discuss the issues of how a blockchain can improve the recruitment process and what opportunities this technology gives to the future employees. Starting next week, we begin to actively prepare for this event.
