Five skills

Dilip Srivastava Vice President-HR OfficeTiger

Excellent communication skills: The single most important skill a candidate should possess is the ability to listen, write, and speak effectively. Successful communication is critical in business. The role of communication has become very significant in dealing with both internal and external customers.

Result orientation: An employee must be committed to the success of the project and of all team members. He must have a vision for the team and move the team closer to the end result. OfficeTiger believes in a performance-driven culture. It recognises valuable contributions of its Tigers through spot recognitions, monthly and annual awards.

Curiosity and aptitude to learn: OfficeTiger is a place for solution seekers and innovators who want to move ahead on merit. Every project is converted into a challenge, which drives away monotony of work. At OfficeTiger, selection of candidates depends on skills such as aptitude, attitude and their learning ability, amongst others.

Self-starter and passionate: If one is committed, ambitious with a will to succeed at any cost—OfficeTiger is the place. It is a challenging place that requires solutions in the most demanding situations—however, it is rooted in a meritocratic culture that allows professionals to learn and grow with an opportunity to reach their lofty ambitions.

Analytical skills and strategic thinking: OfficeTiger’s professionals work minute-to-minute with bankers, lawyers, consultants, accountants and senior executives. Making decisions in an atmosphere of increasing time pressure, uncertainty, and conflicting expert opinions creates challenges. Making such leadership decisions in crisis situations is more demanding. Strategic thinking focuses on reframing issues so that the right problems are addressed, distinguishing systematic patterns from random events, and identifying acceptable risks in alternative decisions.
