Why We love doing what we do at Laksh!
1. We love solving that talent need of businesses, our clients – the match making, the
looking at 100s of profiles to find the ONE. A good hire can make the life so much
simpler – its tough to build something as it is. Making a bad hire cost you in terms of
opportunity, energy and time, apart from money!
2. We like helping people find their calling. Most of the times we just chase money or a
title. Amazing things cand happen if you can help them get a balance with mental
peace and a sense of purpose. Doesn’t happen often, but when it happens, its magic!
3. We love to see how people are evolving. “No man ever steps in the same river
twice, for it is not the same river and he is not the same man.” You get to see up
and close how people are evolving. And sometimes, you get to guide the flow
4. Its our calling. We get a kick when we finally close that position that nothing else
really matches.
5. The learning – The industries plain vanilla services to captives to product to
blockchain and now Metaverse and AI – the functions, technologies, skills,
qualifications – they all keep evolving. We keep learning, we keep growing.

I’ve been a recruiter for four and a half years. On the most fundamental level, recruiting is a triad. All recruiting comes down to three basic decisions:
1) Time,2) Cost, and
3) Quality.
Recruiters should learn two words: Resilience and Patience. The process of identifying,attracting, interviewing, selecting, hiring, and onboarding employees is a cyclical one.
We can never be good recruiters if we fail to define resilience as being based on compassion
for ourselves and for others. When we become resilient, we learn to embrace the
beautifully broad spectrum of human needs, wants, dejections, and the entire human
experience.
Personally, I believe recruitment is an art—finding a balance between the sciences of
recruiting and understanding the human condition. We can identify and source candidates.
We can post a job on LinkedIn or send InMails, emails, or text messages to potential
candidates. We can even use traditional strategies like holding a recruiting event with onsite
interviews.
I can even talk about the endless modern recruitment tools. But at the end of the day, how
you make the candidates feel about your company or client will be a determining factor in
whether or not they are interested. I also believe it has a lot to do with communication. In
fact, studies show that what job seekers want most in their hiring journey has to do with
communication.
Hence, I have this unshakeable belief that AI can never take over recruitment!
Communication is one of the most essential recruitment skills because not only are
recruiters the crucial link between candidates and the company, but they also have a variety
of other responsibilities that require well-honed communication skills. We should be able to
read candidates well, engage their active listening skills, convey candidate information to
relevant people, and relay disappointing job rejection news.
At Laksh, we take full advantage of the recruitment tools available to source candidates, but
we go the extra mile to focus on understanding the cultures of the businesses we work with
and the above-mentioned human experience! It’s fulfilling to work for Laksh as it is a place
to learn, unlearn, and master this fine balance of recruitment. Multi-industry exposure and
macro management (bosses who guide, support, and double up as mentors too) has helped
me grow holistically.
At its core, recruiting is a rather simple concept—it encompasses identifying candidates and
hiring them to fill open positions. However, effective recruiting combines a bit of art with
science. On the one hand, it requires implementing repeatable processes that will lead to
reliable results. On the other hand, it requires sophistication to think outside the box in
order to find your ideal candidate, making it one of the most challenging jobs!
