Pandemic brought on many changes, not just in our home life but also in our work life. With remote work being our reality, employee engagement becomes a little tricky.<\/span><\/p>\n

Even though remote work has come as a blessing by giving the flexibility to work from anywhere, the system started to show cracks by diminishing lines between personal and professional life. The endless scheduled meetings are even in the usual off-hours or unavailable because of more personal commitments or just plain home chores.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

But with the pandemic, the HR team became crucial for arranging remote work for all new and old employees and also for ensuring a positive onboarding process<\/a> for new employees. But for that, even they had to rethink and bring in tools like chatbots virtual platforms for enabling remote work for the entire organization and still be able to stay connected.<\/span><\/p>\n
