BANGALORE, 04 NOVEMBER, 2020 (GPN): Growthcode Technologies, a Bangalore based startup that provides diverse technical solutions, introduces – The Opportunity Triangle (OPT), a unique human capital actualization platform that is designed to increase employability.
Employability is not just about an individual being able to get a job. Employability refers to one’s ability to gain initial employment, maintain it, and obtain new employment when required. In other words, employability is about being capable of both getting and holding on to fulfilling work. OPT enhances employability by integrating solutions encompassing education, training, recruitment, career management, and workforce management.
Boosting employability has for long remained a tough nut to crack as it is relative to three key factors. Eligibility, accessibility, and availability are what directly and indirectly determine employability and OPT helps address each of these quotients. As Ravi Krishnamurthy, CEO, Growthcode, said, “Unfortunately, only 50% of the educated youth are employable, and only eight of a hundred get jobs. We identified this as a key area where a difference could be made. While academia makes them eligible for employment by imparting knowledge, OPT trains people for industry relevance. However, what makes us stand out is the fact that OPT is a holistic solution addressing all the factors that influence employability.”
In order to improve accessibility, apart from training potential candidates, OPT also works with academic institutions and helps them achieve a higher rate of placement by making their students more eligible. As institutions are very keen to boost their placement record, they willingly take part in non-intrusive industry relevance training programs with events such as virtual campus hirings and online job festivals. Outside of academic institutions, cracking the puzzle of the ‘employment industry’ is the next big hurdle. What OPT does here is to make the most hireable candidates available to the industry and lets them source, assess, and hire candidates effortlessly by just clicking a few buttons. Promising a hit rate that is significantly greater than the industry norm of 8%, OPT lets the industry streamline its workforce management practices.
Lastly, OPT also helps state and central governments achieve higher employment rates by assisting them in their initiatives like ‘Skill India’. In a demographic like ours, a platform like OPT can be instrumental in helping rural youth get opportunities across the country through virtual recruitment and career management solutions. Furthermore, OPT also helps enable remote teacher training and provides schools access to the best teachers and allows students to gain relevant skills, which will eventually pay off. ENDS
Mr. Ravi Krishnamurthy’s Profile
It all began with the fate of 16 newly recruited college freshmen who were told to look for jobs elsewhere just a month after they had got their offer letters as they were not approved by any of the clients’ projects they were hired for. The quandary of the 16 college freshmen, who had only a mere 30 days ago been euphoric in victory and now being shoved into the uncertainty quadrant made us realize the problems in sound hiring and the deep rooted disregard of our nescient system.
“We realized right then that the problem of wrong hiring due to ineffective sourcing was a real issue that needed fixing at a personal level and started working on the reason why the problem was so prevalent and found it rooted in inconsistencies” says Ravi Krishnamurthy, CEO of Growthcode Technology Solutions who has 20 years of experience in people functions. Specialist in Education & Employability, Integrated Workforce Management, Mass Learning and Development. He along with his childhood friends and entrepreneurs Bhupeshh Sharma and Sudarshan Sharma decided that the solution had to be something simple, but large and easily scalable.
They started working on different aspects of having an effective workforce for organizations, plotted it to pre hiring eco-system to hiring process to post-recruitment engagement and worked on each of these stages starting with pre hiring process and worked through the next stages.
Today, Growthcode has developed 4 platforms that combine to help organizations in human capital actualization and individuals in total career management.
The Opportunity Triangle is one of its kind. Organizations can use it for Sourcing, Hiring, Interviewing, On-The-Job Training, Assessment, Induction, Client Interviews and Workforce Management. Individuals can use it for comprehensive and easy career management from getting jobs to growing in their career. The Opportunity Triangle bridges the gap between the Industry with the Academia.
PROLEAR is another app that helps individuals get more skilled. Individuals can use it for skill development while organizations can use it for competency management. It can handle the complete training cycle end to end
PROLEAR Institution is built to help the Academia. Schools and colleges can be hosted on the application to not only enable minimum contact or 100% contactless classes but the entire functioning of teaching activity. From attendance to teaching to assessment and 360-degree evaluation. Internal Assessments, VIVA and other tests and examinations can be conducted
PROLEAR Tutor – With the Covid 19 hitting professional trainers and private tutors hard, PROLEAR Tutor is offered to help them not only continue to get work but reach out to more people seamlessly and offer their content across geographies and timelines.
