In an ever-changing economic environment, India’s SME and MSME sector has seen substantial upheaval. In India, there are around 60 million Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) that have shown extraordinary development and growth by providing personalised and innovative solutions.

With this, the dynamic fields of IT, manufacturing, infrastructure, and the service industry have all witnessed a notable surge in the demand for skilled professionals.

WorkIndia, a grey and blue-collar recruitment portal, is seeing an increase in MSMEs employing via technology platforms like them. According to the company, their agile and efficient hiring process has enabled these sectors to swiftly and effectively fulfill their workforce requirements.

From sourcing candidates to finalising placements, the company ensures that SME’s and MSME’s receive the right talent within just one working day, streamlining operations, and boosting productivity. WorkIndia also caters to the hiring needs of over 250 large enterprises, like Swiggy and Zomato.

An interesting aspect is that 30 per cent of their hiring activities are carried out by unconventional establishments such as Kirana stores, where individuals who have little to no experience with smartphones are engaged. Furthermore, even Xerox stores have embraced their services for hiring purposes.

Commenting on the same, Nilesh Dungarwal, Co-Founder and CEO of WorkIndia said, “As SMEs and MSMEs continue to evolve and expand, their workforce needs are evolving as well. We are proud to have contributed to the growth of these sectors in India by revolutionizing the way hiring is conducted. At WorkIndia, we believe that the growth of SMEs and MSMEs is crucial for India’s economic advancement. Our rapid hiring solutions not only address the immediate workforce needs of these businesses but also contribute to the larger narrative of job creation and economic development.”

As these sectors continue to evolve and adapt to changing market dynamics, WorkIndia remains at the forefront, enabling businesses to thrive through strategic and efficient workforce management, with a focus on innovation, rapid hiring, and fostering growth, and serving as a catalyst in the evolution of India’s SME landscape.
