6 Tools and Platforms to Make an HR Team’s Life Easier

An HR team has a lot to do even on a day that does not have them lining up and conducting interviews, meeting with hiring managers to understand their requirements, or putting to work retention strategies that keep their workforce engaged. And without the right list of tools and platforms backing them up, it would indeed be difficult for any HR team to get any work done, let alone create impact.

Reveal

In order to improve hiring, HR teams should be making use of reliable pre-hire assessment tools that can give their companies a definitive edge when it comes to employment recruiting. So, in my opinion, an HR team that isn’t taking advantage of the best pre-employment testing software, like Reveal, is truly missing out.

Human Resources Management System

The HRMS is a one-stop shop for human resource management to store, retrieve and manage human resource data and processes while still remaining compliant to changing tax laws and labor regulations. Rather than having to organize data in physical files, HRMS allows the human resource department to access employee profiles, schedules and attendance lists.

The HR team can always depend on a HRMS to save time when accessing employee data, generating payrolls and planning workforce. HRMS is the HR team’s best friend because it makes it easier to manage employee benefits, efficiently manage overtime and arrange employee training and development.

Google Drive

For me, it’s Google Drive. I’ve used it for everything from creating a new document to uploading files to sharing them with my team members. The best part about Google Drive is that you can access it from anywhere – and it’s totally free!

Amer Hasovic, Content Writer, Love & Lavender

Google Drive is great for sharing files because it’s so easy to use. You can access your files from any device and they’ll be there when you need them. You can also share those files with anyone you like.

Amer Hasovic, Content Writer, Love & Lavender

Google Drive is great for sharing files because it’s so easy to use. You can access your files from any device and they’ll be there when you need them. You can also share those files with anyone you like. It’s perfect for distributing documents or newsletters, as well as collaborating on projects with colleagues and clients. Another thing I like about Google Drive is how much space you get for free 15 GB! That’s more than enough room to store all of your documents and photos (or even videos) in one place.

BambooHR

Having worked at a few different startups, the technology stacks always change from company to company, but one platform that I find tremendous value in everywhere I go is BambooHR.

Brett Ungashick CEO & CHRO, OutSail

It may not be a perfect system for larger, more complex companies, but at the smaller startups I’ve worked in, BambooHR provides a lot of user-friendly functionality at a great price point and backs it up with great support.
