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

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
