What HR Tech Trends Will Dominate In 2020 — Steve Boese Version
2019 comes to an end, which means it is time to not only sum up the HR results of the year, but also to make predictions on what would be the main themes of 2020! We would like to focus on an important element of industry — HR Tech, even more so, Steve Boese, a recognized expert in this area, a Human Resource Executive columnist and chair of HR Technology Conference recently wrote an article where he described what HR Tech tendencies will dominate in 2020. Today we share his thoughts and show you that GoRecruit absolutely aligns to the trends of the future!
The first tendency Steve touches on is personalization of HR technologies. As an example, he talks about smartphones — all of them have the same set of applications and settings, but every customer can configure his phone to support his own needs. The expert expects that in 2020 and beyond HR technologies will more often share this paradigm, become more flexible by providing users with personalized solutions. As for GoRecruit, it is already capable of this — if a company has enough personnel data, our service, once integrated, will be able to predict the success of a candidate for a chosen vacancy, taking into account the peculiarities of the enterprise.
In addition, according to Steve Boese, in 2020 we will once again see an emphasis on employee wellbeing, and thus an increase of investments in HR technologies that help to accomplish it. Today, people work more than ever and we have kind of abandoned the idea that work and life can truly be separated. HR specialists on a daily basis spend a lot of time on routine tasks, when instead they could have focused on, for example, comfort, physical and psychological state, motivation and other aspects of employee wellbeing. Here again, GoRecruit offers help — by analyzing social networks and other publicly available sources it takes upon itself routine and frees up time which can be used for assuring employee welfare. By the way, thanks to the service, recruiters are going to have more opportunities for professional development, for instance, they will not need to spend off-duty hours on reading a useful article — this will surely have an effect on their own wellbeing.
Third important trend of 2020 — commonplace usage of HR Tech. Steve says that, for example, voice assistants will provide HR information just as easily as a weather forecast. But if we are talking about GoRecruit, it is a service which is always within arm’s reach and ready to help!
Companies are always interested in knowing about the future trends, because at the very least they can make assumptions on what will be expected of their products. This post would definitely be useful for HR Tech developers, since we described three trends of this sphere in 2020 according to Steve Boese, these are personalization of HR technologies, attention to employee wellbeing and commonplace usage of HR Tech. At the same time, we proved that GoRecruit suits all of the tendencies!
