Finding the right recruitment technology:A 2×2 le...
When the whole world is going gaga over ‘anything remotely digital’, almost all of us are getting caught in the madness of trying to evaluate whether we are digital enough, and whether we have the right systems in place. This introspection often ends in either of the two actions — we either go out in the market and start to explore available options for pieces which we find lacking in what we already have, or we look at the last paid invoice of our existing vendor and think we have enough for now and try to make the most of it!

Techniques learned while debugging in Python
Debugging in computer programming is defined as a process which involves a step-by-step approach to isolate problem area(s) and then determine a way to either fix them or come up with a workaround. A very common approach which is adopted by developers when debugging is print statements. Lesser known as the “poor man’s debugging technique”, this is quite useful since you can print everything under the hood to get a deeper dive on the variables while you try and isolate the problematic line or a section of code.

Conversational interfaces: The future of employee ...
Chat-bots and other interfaces are saving employees and HR heads time for more productive activities by providing information and replies to diverse queries or concerns.
A few years ago, business communication was driven by multiple faxes in a day and emails were the only quick mode of exchanging information. This information went through the organisation’s who’s who, while the others were mostly engaged in the daily rut of redundant activities, preventing them from directing their capabilities towards more productive areas.
