Why Singapore companies should consider eHiring

Smartphone penetration in APAC region is expected to hit 51.5% by 2019.

It's gonna be a 'new year, new me' for Singapore companies this year as they start 2017 looking for fresh people to join their manpower. But in this new era of selfies, snapchat, and social media reputation, how can they find the right talent that could be of benefit to them?

According to HireRight, companies should optimise their application process for mobile, as APAC smartphone penetration is expected to hit 51.5% by 2019.

"Hiring experiences should be as digitally friendly as possible -- from your company's website and application process, through to the background screening and the on-boarding experience," the group said in its latest infograph.

HireRight also provided four other tips for Singapore companies to kickstart their year right in terms of finding the right talents.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
