“I was very honored to win the CEO with HR Orientation Award. We have been working really hard toward integrating technology into the HR space for a while—and not just for cost savings, but also for improving the overall quality of the hiring process. This award validates the theory that we have put into practice by building Paññã. This is an important milestone that will help guide not just mroads but also all our current and future partners to maximize potential. For me, as a professional, it is inspiring and I cannot wait to see what’s next,” said mroads CEO Manohar Kesireddy.

Their online video interview platform Paññã (Panya) won The Best Use of Technology Award in an HR product, which acknowledges companies that innovate and use technology to bring fresh products and solutions to the HR field. Paññã is a simple-to-use video interview platform designed to help companies find the best talent in the shortest amount of time; they use A.I. (Artificial Intelligence), meaning the platform is intuitive and will adapt in accordance to the job seeker’s answers – either asking more elaborate questions or easier ones.

Congratulations to mroads and Manohar for this achievement!
