Human beings can credit their progress to many different things, but at the same time, none would deserve that honor as much as our knowhow of improving at a consistent pace. We say this because the stated knowhow has already fetched the world some huge milestones, with technology appearing as a rather unique member of the group. The reason why technology’s credentials are so anomalous is purposed around its skill-set, which was unprecedented enough to realize all the possibilities for us that we couldn’t have imagined otherwise. Nevertheless, a closer look should be able to reveal how the whole runner was also very much inspired by the way we applied those skills across a real world environment. The latter component was, in fact, what gave the creation a spectrum-wide presence and made it the ultimate centerpiece of every horizon. Now, having such a powerful tool run the show did expand our experience in many different directions, but even after reaching so far ahead, this prodigious concept called technology will somehow keep on delivering the right goods. The same has grown to become a lot more evident in recent times, and assuming one new HRM-themed development pans out just like we envision, it will only propel that trend towards greater heights over the near future and beyond.
Fountain, the leading comprehensive platform for hiring and onboarding the frontline workforce, has officially announced the launch of two innovative products in Fountain Onboard and Fountain Compliance. Starting from Fountain Onboard, it brings forward the necessary infrastructure to rethink your traditional onboarding methodology, something made largely achievable by its user-friendly, AI-driven platform. In practice, the stated solution delivers at your disposal personalized task flows, a fully customizable mobile portal, and streamlined onboarding processes at every step of the way. All this, when made to work in tandem, should end up delivering at your disposal accelerated onboarding flows, ensure a seamless day one experience, as well as increase worker retention and engagement levels. Talk about each of these benefits on a slightly deeper level, Fountain Onboard promises to accelerate your onboarding workflows by leveraging real-time insights that are acquired with the help of artificial intelligence. But how do these insights actually help? Well, the answer residents in their knack of customizing the entire onboarding process through a tailored approach for both administrators and new hires, thus enabling all the parties to narrow down their focus on what is relevant for them. Such personalization then eliminates a lot of what was redundant all along so to encourage shorter timeframes and greater efficiency. Next up, we must get into the solution’s objective of building a seamless day one for every new hire. Here, you again call upon AI to automatically achieve design customization, mobile-optimized portals, password-free access, embedded videos, and personalized notifications. By introducing this kind of automation across the stated areas, Fountain Onboard is able to help you big time in aligning the new employee’s experience with your company’s ingrained culture, values, and processes. Then, we have the prospect of realizing better worker retention and engagement. You see, taking into account the priority it gives to relevant procedures and materials in every user’s case, Fountain Onboard eventually gives itself a better chance of earning their attention. This development, expectantly enough, makes it possible for the company to develop a strong connection with the new hire right from the very first day. From what we know, Fountain has already got the product to go through some initial tests, where it successfully displayed a 60% reduction in onboarding time and a 75% increase in administrator efficiency. Not just that, Fountain Onboard also clocked a respectable positive feedback rate of 85%.
“The launch of our new products marks a significant leap forward in the evolution of how companies onboard frontline workers, and builds on the tremendous success of our premier platform technology which helps our customers hire more than 3 million workers each year,” said Sean Behr, CEO of Fountain. “This is the next step in how we support our customers, ensuring those hires are prepared and arrive ready for work on day one. Fountain Onboard and Fountain Compliance are a testament to our commitment to innovation and our mission to empower companies to find the right candidates and create successful, engaged teams.”
Turning our attention towards Fountain Compliance, the solution’s bid to simplify compliance management stems from using AI verification and IDP technology. Basically, it uses a pair of these technologies to stitch together transparent oversight of compliance status, automate document collection and evaluation, and minimize disruptions in workflow. Beyond the holistic idea, though, Fountain Compliance delivers on its value proposition through specific services like W4 processing, I-9 processing & verification, eVerify integration, native e-signature, and tax forms etc. Another detail worth a mention here is the fact that this solution is tailored, right out of the assembly line, to seamlessly fulfill the day-to-day needs experienced by executives who are responsible overseeing compliance and workforce management.
“The launch of Fountain Onboard and Fountain Compliance are game-changers for HR professionals and frontline workers alike,” said Salim Jernite, Director of Product for Worker Experience at Fountain. “By leveraging AI, Fountain creates a seamless and personalized introduction to the workplace, setting the stage for enhanced engagement and rapid integration of new hires.”
Founded in 2014, Fountain has risen up the ranks by instilling speed, and more importantly, accuracy across an otherwise tedious and wasteful process of volume hiring. At present, the company serves a wide assortment of industries, including retail, BFSI, BPO, delivery and logistics, manufacturing, and more. As for its excellence in serving these industries, it can be inferred once you take into account that, till date, Fountain has reached more than 91 million applicants, facilitated over 14 million hires, and established a presence in and around 78 different countries across the globe. Further contextualizing its scale is how Fountain’s customers presently bank upon it to complete more than 1.2 million hires on an annual basis.
