Recognizing the gap in HR Services and Deciding how to address it
Chayan Mukhopadhyay, the CEO and Co-Founder of Qandle. Chayan launched Perkkx, an employee benefit platform when he decided to venture into entrepreneurship. When Chayan approached HRs from different companies to pitch his solution, they spoke candidly about their real pain points – an end-to-end HR software. Perkkx could provide an integrated HR tool that works seamlessly, they asked. Employee benefits were good to have, but a well-functioning tool for HR was what they needed. Chayan then saw the need and determined to fill it.
Chayan and Himanshu (now CEO and CTO) connected by serendipitous connections. Himanshu had experienced similar frustrations with HR tools in his past organizations. Himanshu was a techie throughout his career. They had a conversation about the idea and realized that they were complementary in their skills. Together, they decided to create Qandle.

Automating Automation Benefits Both Employees and Employers

He mentions that Human Resources Management (HRM) is one sector which is in desperate need of automation to move employees and professionals from repetitive and mundane tasks Business to more strategic ones. Pandemic has highlighted the importance of automation and tech implementation within the HR department of organizations, which can greatly benefit both employees and employers.

Remote working was initially a challenge for professionals and HR teams. But it is now the norm. The HR industry is now seeing the benefits of remote working.
