Remote Working | Bryq Help Center
How Bryq calculates Remote Working capabilities
Now, more than ever, employees are working full or part-time out of their own homes, with the traditional office space becoming less common. Considering this new normal, Bryq decided to analyze what makes an employee a productive remote worker. As an office building has a completely different dynamic than a home office, it's important to gauge whether your employees can excel in a non-office environment.
Traits and skills including communication, organization, time-management, adaptability, and flexibility are highly important for a remote worker. Bryq has added an Indicator on Remote Working, so you can get a clear and concise explanation of your candidate's remote working capabilities before you hire them.
Remote Working is calculated from the following profile:
-
Communication
-
Problem-Solving Skills
-
Teamworking
-
Self-efficacy
-
Adaptability
-
Decision-making
In the platform, you will be able to see the overall fit score for Remote Working as follows:
