A Study of Talent Acquisition Lifecycle – A Review on Pyxidia Techlab

The research paper explores into the use of digital tools in talent acquisition, focusing on sourcing, screening, and shortlisting applicants. In today's digital age, recruitment has adopted a variety of digital tools, including video job descriptions (JDs) and resumes. These technologies make it possible to examine candidates efficiently, focusing on communication skills, personality, and cultural fit before inviting them to interviews. Keyword utilization speeds up applicant selection based on qualifications and experience. Following the initial screening, AI-driven questionnaires assess candidates' job-related skills and knowledge. This ensures that only the most competent candidates make it to HR and stakeholder interviews. These in-person or virtual interviews test interpersonal skills and problem-solving ability. Following completion, successful applicants go through onboarding, which includes team introductions and resource allocation for effective role performance. Talent acquisition has been altered by digital technologies like as video JDs, resumes, AI questions, and virtual interviews. This saves time and resources while also increasing productivity, employee satisfaction, and organizational success. Keywords— Talent Acquisition, Methodology, Stages, Challenges, E-Recruitment.

Electrohydrodynamic Inkjet Printing of Three-Dimensional Perovskite Nanocrystal Arrays for Full-Color Micro-LED Displays.

Perovskite nanocrystal (PeNC) arrays are showing a promising future in the next generation of micro-light-emitting-diode (micro-LED) displays due to the narrow emission linewidth and adjustable peak wavelength. Electrohydrodynamic (EHD) inkjet printing, with merits of high resolution, uniformity, versatility, and cost-effectiveness, is among the competent candidates for constructing PeNC arrays. However, the fabrication of red light-emitting CsPbBrxI(3-x) nanocrystal arrays for micro-LED displays still faces challenges, such as low brightness and poor stability. This work proposes a design for a red PeNC colloidal ink that is specialized for the EHD inkjet printing of three-dimensional PeNC arrays with enhanced luminescence and stability as well as being adaptable to both rigid and flexible substrates. Made of a mixture of PeNCs, polymer polystyrene (PS), and a nonpolar xylene solvent, the PeNC colloidal ink enables precise control of array sizes and shapes, which facilitates on-demand micropillar construction. Additionally, the inclusion of PS significantly increases the brightness and environmental stability. By adopting this ink, the EHD printer successfully fabricated full-color 3D PeNC arrays with a spatial resolution over 2500 ppi. It shows the potential of the EHD inkjet printing strategy for high-resolution and robust PeNC color conversion layers for micro-LED displays.

Area & power modeling for different tree topologies of parallel prefix adders

Parallel prefix adder (PPA) being an indispensable component of processors needs prompt estimation of design metrics at the initial stage of design cycle. However, the available commercial tools take significant amount of time for the estimation process. The prior availability of area and power models can greatly reduce time-to-market. Symmetrical construction and quick computational ability of PPAs make them competent candidates for adder circuits in complex applications. This paper proposes area and power models for Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) implementation of classic PPAs, targeted to Xilinx Zynq-7000 family. The available literature barely presents parameters estimation and their analysis for PPAs. Therefore, modeling proposed in this paper is a novel work. PPA structures are simulated, synthesized and implemented using commercial tool i.e. VIVADO IDE. Models have been developed using curve fitting and validated against commercial tool. Results show an average estimation error ranging from 0.37% to 1.34% in case of area modeling and 0.23% to 0.59% in case of power modeling which are comparable with state of the art.

Applying for remote jobs? You'd better be competent! Teleworking turns recruiters attention to candidate competence over warmth-related skills

Person Perception Theory suggests that two traits, warmth and competence, govern social judgments of individuals and that warmth has a primacy effect over competence because of its capability to predict people's intentions. Drawing on economic (i.e., rational) decision-making theories, we hypothesized that in organizations, which are by definition concerned with instrumental goals (i.e., maximization of profits and minimization of costs), worker competence is more important than worker warmth and influences hiring decisions about candidates. Moreover, we hypothesized that teleworking turns recruiters' attention to candidate competence (over warmth) to a greater extent than onsite work. Supporting our hypothesis, Study 1, a vignette experiment, showed that people manifest a stronger intention to recruit a candidate who is highly competent (although less warm), while this effect was stronger when the work-setting favored teleworking. Study 2 (preregistered), a field experiment with recruiter participants, further showed that recruiters are more inclined to hire highly competent (although less warm) candidates when the work-setting favors teleworking through the perception of competent candidates as more appropriate for a job. These results provide evidence for a reversal of the primacy effect of warmth at work and illuminate the important role of work-setting (online vs. onsite) in recruiters' hiring decisions.

Real Time Micro Gas Turbines Performance Assessment Tool: Comprehensive Transient Behavior Prediction With Computationally Effective Techniques

Abstract Conventional centralized power generation is increasingly transforming into a more distributed structure. The periodic power production that is created by the renewable production unit generates the need for small-scale heat and power units. One of the promising technologies which can assist flexible power grid is micro gas turbines (mGTs). Such engines are competent candidates for small-scale combined heat and power (CHP). mGTs, as compensators for demand fluctuations, are required to work on transient and part-load conditions, creating new research challenges. A complete characterization of their dynamic behavior through a real-time simulation tool is necessary to establish effective control systems. Moreover, the energy transition requires the conversion of conventional mGTs to more sophisticated high-efficient cycles with the addition of extra components (saturation unit, aftercooler, etc.). Consequently, a modular and computationally fast real-time tool offers an asset in the development of future cycles based on the mGT concept. This paper presents the development of a numerical in-house tool implemented in Python programing language for the performance prediction of the mGT. The fundamental target of our work is to achieve high fidelity of the simulated dynamic responses. The key benefit of this tool is the low complexity component modules. The model is validated with experimental results from the VUB T100 test rig. The code reproduces the experimental data well during steady-state and transient operations as the key cycle parameters present a deviation from the measurements within the range of 1.5%.

Developing methylotrophic microbial platforms for a methanol-based bioindustry.

Methanol, a relatively cheap and renewable single-carbon feedstock, has gained considerable attention as a substrate for the bio-production of commodity chemicals. Conventionally produced from syngas, along with emerging possibilities of generation from methane and CO2, this C1 substrate can serve as a pool for sequestering greenhouse gases while supporting a sustainable bio-economy. Methylotrophic organisms, with the inherent ability to use methanol as the sole carbon and energy source, are competent candidates as platform organisms. Accordingly, methanol bioconversion pathways have been an attractive target for biotechnological and bioengineering interventions in developing microbial cell factories. This review summarizes the recent advances in methanol-based production of various bulk and value-added chemicals exploiting the native and synthetic methylotrophic organisms. Finally, the current challenges and prospects of streamlining these methylotrophic platforms are discussed.

Instructional Leadership Development Practices in Ethiopia: Curriculum Development and Implementation Practices, and Career Development Frameworks

The purpose of this study is twofold: to examine the curriculum structure for instructional leaders’ training and development against the desired competences; and to evaluate the career development framework of instructional leaders. With these ends in view, the study examined the instructional leadership framework, the curriculum document, and the instructional leaders’ recruitment, selection and retention strategies. Unstructured interviews were made with purposely selected thirty-one (31) interviewees until information saturates. Hence, the perspectives of instructional leadership trainers, instructional leaders, zone education department heads, and national level education experts who were selected using a purposive sampling technique were explored through one-on-one interviews. The data analysis and presentation was made based on the major themes identified as purposes of the study. In the light of these, the qualitative data analysis discloses the absence of national instructional leadership framework from which instructional leadership curriculum should have emerged. It was also understood that the loosened curriculum development culture ultimately resulted in the curriculum’s lack of relevance to the desired competences for instructional leadership development. It was further learnt that there existed an absence of context specific recruitment, selection and retention strategies for instructional leaders. It is, therefore, concluded that the instructional leadership development practices of Ethiopia, seemed to have been deviating from expectations. Hence, it is recommended that there is a need to design a national instructional leadership development framework based on which the instructional leadership curriculum development and implementation practices could be managed. The recruitment, selection, and retention strategies should also involve incentive packages that could attract competent candidates to the profession. It is further recommended that there is a need to promote positive mindset exercises for instructional leaders to take their own professional development initiatives.

Conceptual Foundations of Emerging and Mobile Technologies, ICT-Enabled Training, and Traditional Methods for Examinations in the Indian Civil Service

Aiming to comprehend the importance of training civil servants, a feature that has become an integral part of modern personnel management, the author attempts to make a reference to the topic of civil servant training in developing countries as an integral part of the training process. There is no doubt that all governments realize that effective and appropriate training needs to be provided to their civil servants as a matter of maintaining an efficient and contemporary administration as stated in the paper. During the past few years, government functions have grown and expanded rapidly, while the administration itself has become more complex, specialized, and technological in nature. Merit-based recruitment policies and programs in the civil service are aimed at selecting the most qualified and competent candidates for employment in the civil service. In light of the fact that most of the selected candidates possess a degree or diploma, there is no doubt that they are highly qualified and highly educated. In spite of this, an MBA or a university degree does not necessarily qualify them as the best administrators when it comes to their respective fields. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the traditional lecture method and the modern technological method of training for civil service exams. It is also to determine the degree to which these two methods are interrelated. It is pertinent to note that both classes were taught by the same trainer, who ensured that the requirements for both classes were the same. Due to the use of technology in two of the classes, they both provided significant rigor to the training process. Furthermore, both provided participants with valuable information. According to the results of this study, there is a positive correlation between traditional lecture methods and modern technology-based training methods for civil service examinations. Based on the results of the study, this conclusion can be drawn.

Hollow spherical NiFe-MOF derivative and N-doped rGO composites towards the tunable wideband electromagnetic wave absorption: Experimental and theoretical study

N-doped rGO (N-rGO) based nano materials are considered to be competent candidates for absorbing electromagnetic waves (EMWs), owing to the low filler loading and abundant relaxation polarization losses. With a unique multistage porous structure, NiFe@N–C/rGO, derived from the composite of NiFe-MOF anchoring on GO nanosheeets, was successfully constructed by a facile solvothermal method and high-temperature annealing technique. Adjusting the ratio of GO is an effective strategy to optimize the EMWs absorption performance to a large extent. At a filler loading of 20 wt%, when the content of graphene is 30 mg, the corresponding product NiFe@N–C/rGO-30 is found to have a minimum reflection loss (RLmin) of −72.28 dB at 10.82 GHz, and an effective absorption bandwidth (EAB, RL ≤ −10 dB) is 5.25 GHz (12.43–17.68 GHz) under the matching thickness of 2.46 mm, its EAB dramatically reached 7.14 GHz (9.74–16.88 GHz) when the graphene content was increased to 90 mg at 2.04 mm matching thickness, which covers most of the X and Ku radar frequency band. Combined with the analysis of the electronic and surface structures of NiFe@N–C/rGO composites, the formation energy and dipole moment were calculated to reveal the mechanism of EMWs absorption within them. The results show that the N-doped structure is more stable than the vacancy modification, where the pyridinic-N is the source of dipole relaxation polarization under high-frequency electromagnetic field. The combination of experimental and theoretical research reveals the inherent mechanism of EMWs attenuation in as-prepared composites, paving an inspirational route for controllable high performance absorbing materials.

Appearing competent or moral? The role of organizational goals in the evaluation of candidates.

The Big Two theoretical framework suggests that two traits, namely morality and competence, govern social judgments of individuals and that morality shows a primacy effect over competence because it has more diagnostic value. In this study we tested the primacy effect of morality in the workplace by examining how instrumental or relational goals of organizations might influence the importance of morality or competence of candidates during the hiring process. We hypothesized that the primacy effect of morality might hold when organizational goals are relational, but it might get reversed when organizational goals are instrumental. Supporting our hypothesis, in a field study and two experiments (both preregistered) we found that people perceive moral candidates as more appropriate for recruitment when an organization prioritizes relational goals (Studies 1, 2, and 3). In contrast, people perceive competent candidates as more appropriate for recruitment when an organization prioritizes instrumental goals (Studies 1 and 2). Perceived appropriateness of a candidate, in turn, predicts a stronger intention to recruit a candidate (Studies 2 and 3). These results provide evidence for a reversal of the primacy effect of morality in a work setting, and illuminate the important role of organizational goals in social judgments.

How gravitational fluctuations degrade the high-dimensional spatial entanglement

Twisted photons carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) are competent candidates for future interstellar communications. However, the gravitational fluctuations are ubiquitous in spacetime. Thus a fundamental question arises naturally as to how the gravitational fluctuations affect the coherence and the degree of high-dimensional OAM entanglement when twisted photons travel across the textures of curved spacetime. Here, we consider the covariant scalar Helmholtz equations and the Minkowski metric with fluctuations of Gaussian distribution and formulate analytically the equations describing the motion for twisted light in the Laguerre-Gaussian mode space. It is seen that the OAM cannot remain conserved in the presence of gravitational fluctuations. Furthermore, two-photon density matrices are derived for interstellar OAM quantum entanglement distribution, and the degree of entanglement degradation is characterized by purity and negativity. It is revealed that the higher-dimensional OAM entanglement is more susceptible to spacetime fluctuations. We believe that our findings will be of fundamental importance for the future interstellar quantum communications with twisted photons.

Determining ground states of alloys by a symmetry-based classification

Reducing the number of candidate structures is crucial to improve the efficiency of global optimization. Herein, we demonstrate that the generalized Hamiltonian can be described by the atom classification model (ACM) based on symmetry, generating competent candidates for the first-principles calculations to determine ground states of alloy directly. The candidates can be obtained in advance through solving the convex hull step by step, because the correlation functions of ACM can be divided into various subspace according to the defined index $l$. As an important inference, this index can be converted to the number of Wyckoff positions, revealing the dominant effect of geometry symmetry on structural stability. Taking Ni-Pt, Ag-Pd, Os-Ru, Ir-Ru and Mo-Ru as examples, we not only identify the stable structures in previous theoretical and experimental results, but also predict a dozen of configurations with lower formation energies, such as Ag$_{0.5}$Pd$_{0.5}$ ($Fd$-$3m$), Os$_{0.5}$Ru$_{0.5}$ ($Pnma$), Ir$_{1/3}$Ru$_{2/3}$ ($P6_{3}/mmc$), and Mo$_{0.25}$Ru$_{0.75}$ ($Cmcm$).

EVALUACIJA PROCESA REGRUTOVANJA PUTEM DRUŠTVENIH MEDIJA SA FOKUSOM NA LINKEDIN DRUŠTVENU MREŽU

The main question of successful company management is how to find the best associates and how to keep them. New information and communication technologies are changing the way we do business and creating new opportunities for recruiting candidates. The LinkedIn social network has become very popular among job seekers and employers to find competent candidates. The population of millennials, both in the world and in Serbia, stood out in the use of this medium. The primary motives for using LinkedIn media among millennials are professional network development, branding, marketing, increasing visibility among recruiters, and monitoring of interested companies. The most critical issues that may hinder the candidate's employment are false information about qualifications and discriminatory comments about race, gender, or religion presented in the profile. Due to the above, the behavior on the networks should be with measure. The user’s profile and images on social media sites with other websites should show complete consistency. The use of social media in employment is undergoing a transition in terms of norms of behavior, regulations, and laws. Recruitment of candidates through social media in Serbia is still not receiving enough attention, and especially a small number of companies are focusing on the LinkedIn network.
