Case Understanding

In its initial stage, Vector is looking into venturing into the emerging electric vehicles market. Since these electric vehicles assure specific enhancements in the environmental conditions, the company has moved in the right direction, where potential profits and future lies. The government is also aiming at promoting electric vehicles. However, setting up a new company with a handful of employees needs an extreme amount of accuracy. Hiring is very competitive and one of the hardest things. It should be given the correct amount of attention during the inception of the start-up. • As the number of people hired is the limited quality of hiring becomes a predictor of success. • During the growth phase of start-up, tools and analytics become essential for systematic hiring. • Building an attractive brand image in the Job Market. Leveraging the digital platforms to showcase our work culture to attract the right talent in this competitive world. • High workspace and hiring cost as the company will be established in Bangalore. • Spearheading a recruitment process in place for smooth hiring of new employees. • Training the new employees about the product and our business plays a vital role in the overall performance of the start-up. An induction and training calendar must be set up to keep up with this need. • We are clearly defining the role required for our start-up and preparing the needed Job Specifications and Job Descriptions.
