In addition to the social cause, we are also deeply involved with our recruiting partners and committed to helping them build a profitable and growing business with us,” Mr. Chauhan said.

“With the growing demand of blue-collar workers, our mission is to make blue-collar recruitment not just a business opportunity but also a freelancing/side income source for individuals to help them increase their earnings and uplift their lifestyle,” said Divya Goel, Channel Head, Vahan Technologies.

He explained to the participants how Vahan’s AI and Machine Learning powered platform has made blue-collar recruitment quick and efficient leading to more profits for recruiters and a job for eligible candidates within a few hours.

Vahan Technologies’s latest technology allows large databases to be filtered in minutes. The tools interface with communication tools like WhatsApp and voice calls and are used for initial contact with prospective workers. The targeted connect is then carried forward to closure by the tele caller. This frees the tele caller of volume calling to prospects and the time saved can be used to make more placements.

Facilitated by the world’s cheapest data and growth in the smartphone market, the blue-collar space and gig working segment is growing rapidly and is expected to become a significant part of the workforce.

Gig working is an international phenomenon with even advanced economies seeing massive growth in workforce numbers in the space. Gig working helps businesses scale quickly and build operational agility, and is indispensable for businesses like e-commerce. The growing gig industry is an excellent opportunity for those in the recruitment business.
