RPA FOR HUMAN-CENTRIC HR

[Swae]

I am reaching out to the community with a specific inquiry regarding Robotic Process Automation.

In the last year, I've been heavily involved in using RPA, mainly within Power Automate, to make HR tasks more efficient and effective by automating them. Some of the workflows I've developed include automating the generation and dissemination of weekly reports, automatically generating interview guides from intake meetings, and facilitating candidate feedback loops through Microsoft Teams and Email.

Presently, my focus lies on a new RPA-driven approach to skill-based hiring. This involves the creation of dynamic feedback mechanisms for interviewers, based upon specific competencies. Through predictive analytics, I aim to pinpoint skill gaps for targeted recruitment efforts through these feedback mechanisms. 

Due to this, I would like to tap into the experience within the community. I am excited to learn from your experiences and insights regarding RPA implementation within HR processes. Are there any instances where organizations have successfully digitized their workflows, achieved operational efficiency, and freed valuable time by automating manual tasks?

I would also like to focus on how RPA has allowed more time for your teams to put the Human back in Human Resources.

I am reaching out not only for knowledge-sharing but also for potential collaboration or dialogue. If anyone is willing to share examples, discuss strategies, or explore opportunities for mutual growth, I am more than happy to arrange a meeting whenever you have time. This is primarily for a project I am working on in my organization to persuade and influence HR to use Power Automate. If there are success stories and examples, I can use those in the beginning of my presentation.

Thank you in advance for sharing your examples,

Josue

Hi @Swae,

Nice Questions. 

I have also built some HR related flows as well. 

One thing I think they find really relevant, are Competency Tool (Now this doesn't entirely have to be done with RPA, You can have an hybrid approach with PBI, Powerapps or good old Excel).

The idea of the tool it enables employees to do GAP analysis and management as well to have a general idea on areas they need to improve on. 

Also good old reminders are normally valuable (Reminders like Knowledge sharing sessions, birthday e.t.c)

Another aspect they find highly important are Approvals (Especially in context of Leave Approvals).

Now other processes could also include research work (In the sense of certain informations needs to be extracted from a website and consolidated somewhere) that research work can save them the time in determining the course to allocate for employees. Also the entire recruitment process to a large extent can be automated, Using AI builder, RPA and cloud flows to automate the review of CV's and forms and sending the appropriate details to the user. 

Kindly feel free to like my post and mark as a solution if it meets your requirement. Also sure I would love to connect on Linkedin-Joseph Fadero to discuss further, Thank you

Hi Joseph,

Thank you for the reply! This is very insightful. I would love to have more details on that GAP analysis and management tool and the automation of reviewing CV's. 

Anymore real world examples with numbers in time saving would be extremely beneficial as well. I'll be sure to connect on LinkedIn.

Best,

Swae
