About the Company:

Apollo Pharmacy is a part of Apollo Hospitals - Asia's largest healthcare group. It is India's first and largest branded
pharmacy network, with over 4000 plus outlets in key Locations.

Need: Automating the
recruitment process

The need was to design & develop a digital recruitment
platform, a virtual platform built to make high volume hiring
efficient and cost effective for Apollo Pharmacy.

Making It Easier

We've all been there - filling out that never-ending application. Job Applications can become long and tedious. We found that almost 50% of the candidates had, at some point, abandoned an in-progress job application due to overly complex and time-consuming requirements. We wanted to ease this process for the candidates and ensure that the application process is straightforward and quick to complete.

Faster Application Processing

While managing an application process, it's crucial to structure requirements with applicants' time-sensitivity and own hiring requirements in mind. A better profile screening was needed to increase the hiring efficiency. The communication needed to be fast and clear. The selection process should be quick and informative. With the pandemic in the scene, we needed a solution that allows minimal contact to hire someone.

Intelligent Insights

Traditional recruiting used to rely on luck and intuition more than data, which was time-consuming to amass and analyze. Recruiters and hiring teams could only assume that their hiring methods were effective. Now we wanted to create a data-driven recruiting process. We wanted to see tangible facts and stats to inform the hiring decisions, from selecting candidates to creating hiring plans.

Solution:

Our focus was to implement effective methods to enhance
their recruiting efforts by leveraging existing resources, going
digital and utilizing the right tools.

Solution #1: Refining Job Posting Approach

We streamlined hiring by decreasing the Job posting time. Now the recruiters can post jobs in a matter of clicks. In general, they had 4 job types with well-defined Job Descriptions. We created a vacancy management system that enabled them to manage a batch of over 10000 job vacancies for their 4000+ stores across India. With everything digital, they can now get applications from candidates pan India, rural or urban.

Solution #2: Response Speed.

Ineffective communication with prospects can cause major hiring delays. To reduce response time, we streamlined application screening, which takes up a significant portion of the total recruitment time. We also identified the communication channels that have the fastest and slowest response rates. Frequently, the mobile platform provides the fastest response rate because it is carried and accessed 24/7. Hence, we decided to utilize SMS communication to improve the response rate and email communication and to makes it more professional.

Solution #3: Utilizing referrals

Not only do referrals routinely produce the highest volume and quality of hires, but they also can produce the fastest hires under a well-designed referral program. Hence, we made the referral process seamless on the platform. Now the employees can refer their friends & family in few clicks and enjoy the perks of employee referrals without any hassle. The ex-employees can easily be contacted and rehired. Even the candidate can refer job vacancies to their friends on social media using a straightforward button provided on the platform.

Solution #4: Revving up the interviews

To improve the interview rates and avoid the delays that occur during the interview scheduling and interview processes. We limited the number of interviews per slot, which means the recruiters can only call 4-5 candidates per time slot which improved the interview rates. We increased the interview rate significantly by creating a virtual interview module which enabled the recruiters to take live video interviews eliminating the travel time and waiting period. Identify which managers are particularly slow at interviewing, so that slow managers can be helped.

Result:

Virtual interviewing can dramatically improve outmoded and inefficient screening practices like telephonic or face-to-face interviewing. It allowed recruiters to screen more candidates in less time while still gathering a complete impression of the candidate to identify the best talent. It delivered flexibility to the process for both recruiter and the candidate helping accelerate talent acquisition and provide a more engaging process for all parties involved.
