Infosys employees who are looking to switch their job profiles will now be able to do so using a designated internal platform, called Compass. It would make sure that the employees don’t look outside when they want to switch roles, and instead find one within the company.

Compass, the digital platform rolled out by the technology giant would also allow them to mobilise available opportunities on career growth, learning and networks.

Infosys is trying to digitise all its HR processes, putting an extra focus on technology so that it can enhance the experience of its employees. In the past couple of years, it has introduced a range of such initiatives using available technologies, which help its employees be more productive.

"Those who want a change from their current job profile or posting can now log on to Compass, and view a curated list of opportunities based on their skills and interests. Employees can create a humanised profile to showcase their professional achievements. Video CVs, endorsements, blogs and badges can also be shared," Richard Lobo, SVP and head-HR, Infosys, told ET.

The platform can also be used as a networking website where like-minded people can interact, thus facilitating making use of existing expertise and experiences that the employees possess.
