The advent of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing various sectors, and Human Resource Technology (HRTech) is no exception.

From recruitment to employee engagement and performance management, AI is driving efficiency, accuracy, and strategic decision-making in HR.

In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, the demand for soft skills has surged.
