A good technology awareness strategy boils down to four simple steps: 1. Determine your needs. 2. Assess the resources available to you. 3. Rank the resources in order of usefulness to you. 4. Make or allow the time to use the resources.
Lets take a closer look at each step.
Step1. Determine your needs. Youll determine your needs from the type of technology you live and work with, your existing knowledge base, and your learning style.
First, regardless of the technology in question, we all need a better handle on the fundamentals, like electricity, magnetism, light, sound, fluid behavior, and other fundamentals as you need them. These are the building blocks. Knowing these basics will help you understand how an electric motor works, why air conditioning cools, and so forth.
Next, youll need to learn more about the specific devices you use. It may seem simplistic at first, but knowing how your cell phone works really can help you.
Step2. Assess the resources available to you. From books to magazines to the Internet to formal training sessions, you can find technology-related information in a variety of sources. In the next section well discuss the major categories you can look into. Explore your options and figure out which resources work for you.
Step3. Rank the resources in order of usefulness to you. The good news is that there are a lot of resources. The bad news is that there are a lot of resources. Now you have to weed them out. Choose those resources that have even a small chance of working for you, and then rank them in terms of the subject matter (some will be more important than others), your learning style, and your lifestyle (do you prefer the Internet to the library?).
Step4. Make the time to use the resources. This is where the rubber meets the road. I promise that it wont be a big burden, but you must do it! Some resources youll read only once and then youll move on. Other resources youll want to keep for future reference. If you truly integrate your technology education into your daily routine, it will only take a few minutes a day.
Yes I think, I'm speaking not as an HR professional but rather who work together with HR to get the best talent as possible in our hiring process. Example, in my previous work our HR usually do some background check on LinkedIn, StackOverflow, Tweeter, etc... of the candidate if the position he/she is applying for is technology related. That way, we can reach to to his/her network and assess if what he/she is saying on his/her CV is true/accurate.
Others, pre-employment briefing and introduction sometimes done online with training materials can just be read, study and reference via corporate portal.
It depends on which software you are using and specially the quality of training you recieve from each company.
there are HR professionals who use Excel or Access and are comfortable using it. there are also companies invested in Peoplesoft, Oracle, SAP, Taleo or other CRM's.
HRMS systems are widely available but it depends on how you train the employee to make use of the software.
we've used different softwares in our company and now in Oracle HR.
