Tara Panicker is an equity analyst by profession and an environmentalist by passion. In 2019, she took a year off from work to spend some time in nature.
When she decided to get back into the industry in October 2020, she realised she was entering a completely new world. She wasn’t required to travel anywhere for interviews (thanks to Zoom) and nobody seemed to be interested to know if she had any location preferences or constraints.
She got equally good offers from 3 companies of similar stature. One of them, a leading Asset Management Company, moved the fastest. She submitted her documents over a live video call. She was constantly updated on the status of her background verifications over WhatsApp. Her onboarding was completed in a matter of days. Not once did she need to meet anyone physically or submit physical copies of documents.
The smoothness of her onboarding experience may have tilted her towards this company who happens to be a client of IDfy’s. The Background Verification process was done by IDfy on IDfy’s Zero Touch Onboarding platform.
Tara continues to live on the hills and work from there, working closely with her colleagues spread all over the world.
