Key challenges Hubbing LATAM was facing

When the HR team at Hubbing LATAM was formed, there were no systems in place – only Excel spreadsheets and paper-based records. The team faced multiple challenges in trying to scale and formalize HR processes:

icon

Lack of an internal structured system and processes

The company needed to build and manage all HR functions from scratch efficiently but struggled without clear internal frameworks.

icon

Limited internal control over the hard side of the platform

There was insufficient oversight and management of the platform’s operational and technical aspects within the company.

icon

Reliance on external consulting firms for various HR functions

The company depended heavily on outside consultants to perform critical HR tasks, which affected agility and cost-efficiency.

icon

Lack of a streamlined process from basic search to onboarding

The recruitment and onboarding processes were fragmented, lacking a smooth, unified flow from candidate sourcing to employee integration.

Introducing intuitive hiring

With a Kanban-style job funnel, HR gained full visibility and presented an intuitive and clear dashboard. The user-friendly interface displayed all stages of their HR processes, simplifying tracking and decision-making throughout the employee lifecycle.

Creating a communication and notification system

HR communication moved away from endless email chains. Team updates, post-interview feedback, and reminders are now automated within the platform, keeping everyone informed and aligned. Hubbing LATAM's team relied on the PeopleForce platform's automatic notification system. This ensured that all HR stakeholders were able to contribute to timely decision-making.

Supporting leave management and compliance

As leave requests increased ahead of the vacation season, the team used PeopleForce to configure all local leave types, including exam days. Students can now upload certificates directly into the system – everything is stored in one place.

Launching internal feedback surveys

The company implemented daily satisfaction surveys and is preparing broader internal surveys, all within the PeopleForce platform. The only operational survey is the initial satisfaction survey, which employees complete daily upon entering the system.
