Here are 7 business activities that may change forever as a result of the coronavirus:
4. Interviewing Candidates
When you’re hiring, it’s currently possible for lots of candidates to come to your office to interview with lots of current employees, from the HR director to the hiring manager and other execs. When candidates land a coveted interview, they’re unlikely to reschedule if they’re feeling sick. Rather than expose the recruiting team to potential illness, companies may rely more on video—both live and asynchronous.
Only time will tell how quickly these changes will become the norm and whether they’ll be temporary or permanent. But for sure, the tagline from the 1960s Bell Telephone ads, “It’s the next best thing to being there,” will become the mantra of leaders who seek to keep their people healthy and productive.
