Just like any other business unit, HR isn’t immune to the advances in tech, and with the onset of cognitive technology, the future of HR is a truly exciting one
Every few months, I have the amazing opportunity to meet people who significantly impact what I know and believe. I walk up on stage in front of the huge batch of campus hires at our Global Education Center in Mysore, and welcome them to the company that will soon be their second home. It is a great experience to meet the young minds, who are the future of the industry; and what they teach me is equal to or more than what we impart through our rigorous training in base and new technology.
It is this focus on technology, in all forms, that is the core of what we do here at Infosys. We embrace technology in many ways, and leverage it to ensure a seamless experience for our employees, from campus hires to the long-tenured, while at the same time, navigate this change in scale without losing the human core. Our teams use technology to build apps, automate processes, and create systems that manage scale, but we rely equally on the interactions that these future employees have with leaders and HR teams to make the first day of their careers unforgettable.
Just like any other business unit, HR isn’t immune to the advances in tech, and with the onset of cognitive technology, the future of HR is a truly exciting one. AI, lot, VR, etc. are making waves in all fields of science and business, and are slowly seeping into HR too.
