Charis Nicholas, head of high touch end user video collaboration - South and Southern Africa at Logitech says, “Among its many benefits, video conferencing has become a game-changer for the HR industry. The mobility and flexibility offered by video conferencing gives people more control over their workdays and helps them manage their well-being while also aiding productivity.”
Recruit and retain
Not too long ago, recruitment was a cumbersome and time-consuming process for everyone involved. Employers were limited to finding candidates who lived within travelling distance of their offices or who would be willing to relocate. Equally, prospective employees would have to spend time and money travelling to an interview that may not pan out.
Video conferencing provides a way for HR professionals to connect with potential employees, screen candidates, and conduct interviews with candidates from anywhere in the world.
By using video conferencing, potential employees can integrate interviews into their days with ease. In the current economic climate, this also allows people to save the money they would usually have to spend on transport to get to and from interviews.
Boost collaboration
Video conferencing has made it significantly easier for organisations to communicate with their clients and employees. What’s more, 94% of company’s state that productivity is the main benefit of video conferencing.
As the global competition for talent becomes fiercer, video conferencing has become an important tool in being able to attract and retain said talent.
