At Newgen we believe in the power of “resourceful humans”. Our people are our primary source of competitive advantage and they help us to drive our growth in a planned and efficient manner. We work towards developing a culture that attracts people with multidimensional experiences and skills. We hire product developers that are trained to think about building products as opposed to implementing IT projects.
Our developers take great pride in building world-class products with cutting edge technologies. Such sense of pride cultivates belongingness and affinity in our teams. As a result many of our developers like to stay with the company for long periods of time improving our retention rates as one of the highest in the industry.
We hire and train high end product developers, as building a product requires proper generalization, flexible design, and disciplined coding. Our training and team environment ensure that they can think through all aspects of the problem being solved by building flexible architectures and writing robust code.
Building products for highly competitive environments require development teams that can properly match that intensity. To ensure that people who join us have the right mix of attitude, values and skill sets compatible with Newgen’s culture, we follow a rigorous hiring procedure.
Our selection procedures involve a thorough psychometric testing, and skill based interviews, which reduce the subjectivity of the process. Using metrics and measurements regularly, like cost per hire, source distribution, staffing efficiency ratio etc. Helps us to maintain our quality of the selection process. Our parameters for selection extend to both hiring from campus, as well as lateral hiring.
In addition to acquisition of talent, we also lay special emphasis on development of talent through knowledge sharing activities, well-defined career path, and career development plans. Apart from this – competitive pay, a well-outlined induction and orientation program, immediate rewards and recognition, open channels of communication, and a participative environment have led to our best resources being with us for a period of 5 yrs and above.
Newgen's employees are responsible for its growth by leaps and bounds year after year. Thus, talent management is an important and critical activity for us. We provide an intellectually stimulating and meaningful work environment, ample opportunities to learn and grow, and a sense of belongingness, which challenges, motivates and inspires each Newgen-ite to achieve beyond potential.
