The Crisis

Blue collar companies in India waste billions on hiring failures. They post jobs on IndiaStack/Naukri, get hundreds of low-quality applications, conduct interviews that go nowhere, and hire people who don't show up. The system is broken by design.

The 4 Fundamental Failures

Failure 1: No Intent Screening

Job boards show your posting to everyone. 80% of applicants aren't serious—they're mass-applying. You spend days interviewing people who will never take the job.

Failure 2: No Availability Verification

You hire someone who says they can work 6am shifts. They show up once. You never verified they could actually wake up that early or handle the commute.

Failure 3: No Reliability Assessment

You hire based on resume. You never check: Will they show up? Are they reliable? Has their previous employer fired them for attendance? You discover this after hiring.

Failure 4: No Speed or Cost Optimization

The hiring process takes 6-8 weeks. By then, your ready candidates have taken other jobs. Meanwhile you're paying high per-hire costs and getting poor results anyway.

The Hidden Costs of Broken Hiring

• 25% no-shows = 25% of hiring ROI wasted
• First-week quits = onboarding costs down the drain
• Constant re-hiring = recruiter burnout
• Poor teams = missed delivery targets = lost revenue
• Total hidden cost per hire: $2000-3000
