Adecco India Expands Portfolio To Include Assessment Solns

Adecco India, an arm of Adecco SA that provides HR solutions, has forayed into ‘Assessment Solutions’ as part of its corporate strategy to expand its portfolio of value-added services to its 2,000-odd customer base. Leveraging its end-to-end HR solutions model of ‘Assess-Prepare-Deploy’, the company has devised a series of assessment tools that will allow companies to manage time, cost and quality concurrently by ‘developing predictable people management’.

Sudhakar Balakrishnan, CEO, Adecco India, said, “In today’s competitive business scenario, it has become imperative for every organisation to not only attract but also retain talent. Very often, we lose out on key talent by not rightly assessing and thereby, supporting talent. Identifying this key gap, we have devised assessment tools to assess self, new hires, teams, managers, development, successors etc. Our end objective is to help our customers effectively manage talent.”

Possible application avenues of Adecco’s assessment solutions will include pre-hire, selection and on-boarding, individual and team development, workforce compatibility planning, success planning and talent and management development. Balakrishnan says, “A lot of research has gone into this. We have connected with our customers to get a first-hand feel of their pulse and we are sure that they will see a tangible value-add to their quality of talent pool through our assessment tools”.
