Elixir Web Solutions Ltd. is in business to cater to interests in the areas Recruitment, Outsourcing and Staffing services.

Elixir understands responsiveness as not just timely delivery but also the ability to customize according to the specialized needs of clients which is why we have incorporated the following:
  • Investment in technology to support their knowledge capital.
  • Specializing in different industry verticals (IT, Telecom, ITES, Financial Services, Insurance, Healthcare and Travel)
  • An extensive online database
  • Intranet to support speedy communication between their networks of associates.

Elixir does recruitments across the board and significant value propositions include

  • Closing on senior level searches within 15 days of getting mandates we recently helped a client one of the largest financial services company close the head of their call center within 14 days of getting the mandate (The papers were sent within one day of the mandate) and another very large IT company hire their director IT within 15 days of getting the mandate,

  • Helping companies expand their business to newer geographies with state wide recruitments in a months time: last month we helped a large insurance company with their mandate to recruit a sales team in 15 cities in Punjab the mandate was given to us on the first of June and the joining happened on the 7th of July.(The entire search to offer process took only 19 days)

  • To enhance the response time on critical junior level positions we provide temporary staffing solution. While writing this release we got a call from a client whose front office person had met with an accident and wanted a replacement. By the time we finished the release the person had already assumed responsibilities at the client's office.

With a commitment of giving you three relevant profiles in three working days Elixir which started in September 2000 on its third birthday already employs in excess of a 100 people and services over 275 clients all across India.

As per Vipul Prakash who is a Partner with Elixir and heads the Search Practice at Elixir “With rising competition and decreasing bottom lines companies no longer have the luxury of having any excess workforce in the organisation. Companies are largely moving into what could be described as Just in Time hiring. This is supported quite well by advancement in Technologies. What we have to do at our end to back up their need is to ensure that we keep tracking every move at the clients and their competition.”

What makes us react so fast to client’s positions? The answer to that lies in

  • Our Structure and Approach
  • Our Internal HR
  • Adaptation of modern Technology
  • Research and Knowledge Management
  • Quality Commitment
  • Our Team

To share some statistics daily we post over 75-80 jobs on line (this is besides our off line advertising and our head hunting efforts) we have over 2500 applications coming in on a Daily basis and our current database is over 276,000 resumes strong. Besides we have access to on line databases that collectively provide us access to over 2 million profiles. To manage this we use very powerful backend software that tracks each profile and records our interactions. What this means is that for most positions we have we have ready profiles, which can be accessed with a single click.

Our Hr Initiatives which include quarterly 360 degree appraisals, monthly events, trainings birthday celebrations a yearly company trip, regular motivation surveys, innovative compensation packages etc add up to ensure that our team stays motivated. At Elixir a Fresh MBA who performs exceptionally could end up heading a team of 10 in as soon as a years time. Our Hiring process is elaborate and ensures that only the best talent is hired.

Our Research and Analysis wing provides teams with relevant data in terms of client tracking, client’s key competition tracking, Industry Tracking, Competition Tracking and benchmarking of our practices with others.

Going forward not only are we looking at expanding geographically but also in terms of providing more value added services to our existing clients. We see ourselves as an end-to-end provider of all our clients consulting needs. To this effect we are already in talks for acquiring a company that is into processing of payrolls.

IT ENABLED SERVICES PRACTICE

IT Enabled Services Practice of Elixir specializes in servicing Talent Search needs of the BPO industry. We take pride in being amongst the largest dedicated sector specific team in the country, exclusively focussing on the requirements from the Entry to the Top level. We have developed ourselves into a 'One Stop Shop', with our vast clientele and huge database, for all kinds of opportunities as well as all kinds of profiles across levels and across locations in the BPO space.

We have been closely partnering with the major BPO players across locations in sourcing for talent across the board. We have extensive exposure in handling the entire breadth of talent requirements in the IT Enabled Serives space right from a Calling agent to the Profit Centre Head.

To give you a brief run through on the services offered by us, through which a lot of our clients have derived excellent results. We specialize in:

Top Level Executive Search

With an exclusive database of top-notch professionals, which grows constantly through head hunting and intensive networking in the industry, we have been able to deliver the best-fit candidates at the Top level. Having been in the Top Level Executive Search for quite some time and with a huge structured database, we have developed a wide network of exceptional talent in the industry. We also conduct exclusive searches for key Leadership positions in the BPO space.

In order to make our efforts more focused and specialized, we have a core team of consultants taking care of mandates at the middle and senior level. This enables us to have a thorough understanding of each requirement from all perspectives and thereby source the best-fit candidates for specific positions.

Bulk Hiring

We have also been involved in a lot of activities for Bulk Hiring at the Agent level. We have been partnering with key players in the BPO sector for these requirements. Through our value added services we enjoy the status of being amongst the preferred partners with our clients.

We have a separate team of dedicated, high-energy consultants servicing the bulk hiring needs of our clients at the entry level. A complete understanding of the specific client requirements, hiring procedure, organizational context, desired candidate attributes equips this team well to deliver quality candidates, in huge numbers within conservative delivery deadlines. In addition, we follow a rigorous process for screening / shortlisting the candidates and thereafter assist them with a complete orientation about the client organization.

Depending upon the magnitude of the requirement, we employ various channels of recruiting. Some of these include:

Campus Interviews We do campus hiring all across.(were instrumental in recruiting a huge number for a fortune 50 company, where around 800 offers were made and around 520 finally joined).

Out station Events Wherein we shortlist candidates and do the entire screening for a few days in outstation locations and the client comes in on the last day and makes offers after the final round.

Newspaper Walkins: We hold newspaper walkins either in our office or at any centralised location in the city and screen the candidates in the first half and build a ready pool for the clients who come in post lunch and give out the offers after the final round.

Partnering with Clients on a retainership basis:This is a comprehensive value added service that we extend to our clients wherein we handle the entire agent level hiring exclusively and coordinate with other consultants and all other channels of hiring. The screening and the administering of the tests and evaluation processes are followed and the selected candidates are sent across to the clients to collect their offer letters. Here the entire hiring for the agent level is outsourced to Elixir. A slight variance to this service is having a full time team from Elixir on the client side handling the entire recruitments at the agent level instead of doing the screening in our facility.

SERVICES PRACTICE

"The service sector is estimated to grow between 7 to 7.5 per cent this year," said the Ascon survey. The service sector contributes to the largest growth towards our economy. There are about 15 people who work in the Services department, which ranges from Insurance to HealthCare and Pharmaceutical to Hospitality to Banking. The challenging part of any talent search team is to know the in depths of the industry and we have to not only know our Industry but our Clients as well. Our satisfied clients can vouch for our multifaceted talents.

The services department has grown from two individuals to a fifteen-member team in a span of one year, and in terms of revenue – we now contribute more than 20% to Elixir, and we expect an addition of about ten new consultants to our practice and hope to contribute more than 40 % to the total revenue collection to Elixir.

The consultants of the Services department are a team of highly charged and motivated people and under the able leadership of Somshukla, they have not only met but overshot their targets by a long way – quarter after quarter.

It takes a lot of faith and trust on the part of an organization to outsource their Human Resource requirements and it takes a lot of effort on the part of our talent search team to maintain that faith and effort to keep pace with our clients needs and requirements. Health care sector is a booming sector in India and our team has moved into its third quarter on 1 st October 03. We have moved from serving local requirements to servicing the requirements all over India.

“ No man is an Island”

this cliché holds true for our team as we are not working as individuals but as one unit. We are not a team of Champions but a Champion team.

OUTSOURCING PRACTICE

MEDIA PRACTICE

'Media' is a creative venture that fulfills the implicit need for entertainment and information. It infuses realism and propagates a theme or an idea through the subtle effect of dramatization. In the technical jargon, the objective of media is to intelligently strategize the needs of the market and portray them in a cost - effective and innovative method so as to reach and influence the masses.

We at E-lixir believe strongly in the power of the 'media' and it is this conviction that led to the inception of 'MEDIA' as a vertical of paramount importance within the organization. The foray, which was started merely five months back by a handful of people, with nothing but dedication and the spirit to succeed, is today indispensable.

Over this short period, we have built a strong team and a considerable databank and have successfully catered to the manpower needs and requirements of some of the major Event Management companies, P R Agencies, as well as Radio and TV channels. Having carved a niche in this upcoming sector, our next endeavor in this journey is to tap the available as also the latent resources in the field of ADVERTISING.

With an aptitude for hard work and the dream to succeed ... we go on ....

The IT Resourcing Team primarily caters to the recruitment and staffing needs amongst the IT Cos. Our proactive team services positions across various skill sets (ERP, Supply Chain, CRM and Software Development), at different experience levels and various locations (Delhi, Bangalore, Mumbai, Singapore, US, UK etc.)

Our dominance across skill sets can be further elucidated through the following:

  • Placed over 50 SAP consultants across the globe in the year 2001-02

  • Effectively closed on Sr. Executive positions like CTO, CEO, SAP Practice Head, Profit Center and Country Heads between 3 prestigious clients.
