YOYO Holdings Pte. Ltd.’s Post

Recently, many talented professionals in Indonesia have been laid off. It’s important to remember that this is not always due to performance. One thing that stands out in Indonesian culture is “gotong royong” (helping each other). A simple like, comment, or share on an “open to work” post can make a big difference in opening up opportunities. This sense of solidarity is something I’ve come to truly appreciate. 🙏 🙌 👏 Inspired by this, I began offering free mentorship through adplist.org and connecting people to my global network. I saw a gap in connecting Indonesian talent with international opportunities, so I decided to build a automation platform to help bridge that. Using my background in computer science, I’ve been learning about AI, and I chose Vertex AI from Google for its ease of use in implementing solutions. If you’re “open to work” or looking to hire Indonesian talent, drop a comment or DM me. I’ll share mentorship session and advice on hiring talent in compliance with Indonesian regulations. Please feel free to give a like or comment for better reach, your support is greatly appreciated! 😊😊 #Hiring #Indonesiantalent #Opentowork #Mentorship

Indonesia is becoming an increasingly viable alternative to the Philippines But (IMHO) still has a way to go to dethrone PH as to the go-to destination for global startups looking to build a remote engineering hub in Southeast Asia. 🇮🇩 Indonesia definitely offers lower living costs (especially outside Jakarta) - making it attractive for companies seeking cost advantages as salaries are slightly lower 🇮🇩 🇵🇭 Both countries also boast strong STEM talent However, the Philippines has the edge when it comes to: 🇵🇭 Stronger Western cultural alignment 🇵🇭 Superior telco infrastructure (although ID is improving rapidly on this) 🇵🇭 More established remote work culture / practices 🇵🇭 Better English proficiency overall 🇵🇭 Shorter notice periods (rarely more than 4 weeks) Looking to learn more about building a remote team in either country? Always happy to share insights. Share a comment below or drop me a DM ------------------------------------------- 🌏 Follow me for more insights on remote hiring across Southeast Asia

Is there any TRUTH that INDO is becoming a hub for TECH TALENT? After some research... This is what I have discovered: Indonesia has become a top destination for tech hiring, attracting global companies with its skilled talent pool. As Southeast Asia's largest digital economy, Indonesia offers unique advantages for tech recruitment. Vast Talent Pool: With over 260 million people, Indonesia boasts a young, tech-savvy population. Thriving Tech Ecosystem: Home to the highest number of unicorns in Southeast Asia, Indonesia's dynamic tech scene fosters innovation and skill development. Cost-Effective Talent: Competitive salaries make Indonesia an attractive option for building tech teams without high costs.

Remote Hiring Opportunities: Companies from tech regions like Singapore, Australia, and the US are tapping into Indonesia’s talent pool. Favorable Working Culture: Indonesia's collectivist values and respectful workplace environment enhance productivity and employee satisfaction. Navigating Employment Terms: Understanding local laws and partnering with local providers like Glints can streamline the hiring process.

😎 I've been able to help Singapore companies save up to 70% sourcing and hiring talent from Indonesia, including: ◾ Backend Engineers ◾ Product Designers ◾ UX Researchers ◾ SEO Specialists ❤️ The past couple of weeks have been incredibly exciting, launching High Five. Along the way, I've met inspiring founders working on super impactful projects, and I've had the pleasure of meeting the most exceptional talent. On LinkedIn, I've shared a lot about my motivations and the "Why?" behind building High Five, but I realized I haven't really shared about what the company actually does. In a nutshell, we offer 3 core services: 🔎 Talent Sourcing Based on your candidate requirements, we'll leverage network and talent pool to curate, screen and recommend top talent. 💼 Employer of Record We'll hire employees on your behalf and handle all the complexities of contracts, taxes, benefits, government declarations and payroll, allowing you to focus on your core business. 💰 Payroll Every month, you'll pay us in USD or SGD to a bank account in Singapore, and we'll disburse salaries to your international employees in their local currency, hassle-free. All of this can happen in less than a week. The best part? You'll have a dedicated account manager who will be your single point of contact - me. I'll personally oversee your account and ensure we get the job done, while providing white-glove, exceptional service every step of the way 🔥.

Looking for work as a new mother with a career gap in Indonesia is not easy 😥 , especially if you want to stay close to your family. In my experience, Jakarta is the only place with abundant job opportunities, while finding work in East Java is very challenging. 💀 This is why I am passionate about working remotely. It allows me to earn an income and stay close to my family. Initially, my goal was simple -> to make money while ensuring my skills were put to good use. It would be a shame to let the abilities I've developed over the years go to waste. I started my journey as a virtual assistant with the mindset of an independent contractor. As an entrepreneur, I can choose my work hours, the duration I work, and even my clients. I need to feel a connection first with my clients to help them lighten their workload and reclaim their time. I support business owners, entrepreneurs, and startups with Social Media Management, Graphic Design, Brand Strategy, and Research. 💻 To all the new mothers out there who struggling with their careers: believe if you are an empowered women. Keep going. There is always light in your dim sky. 🌟 book a get-to-know call on my bio if you need my services. #RemoteWork #VirtualAssistant #Entrepreneur #CareerMoms #WorkLifeBalance #EmpoweredWomen #BusinessSupport #BrandStrategy

A year ago, we decided to expand our team at inFeedo and hire talent in Southeast Asia (SEA). 🌏 This was uncharted territory for us, involving international hiring and building processes and policies from the ground up. Our initial plan was to leverage local recruitment agencies. However, I decided to take on the challenge and explore alternative methods. Here's what worked best: 1️⃣ Networked extensively: I actively connected with sales professionals in the HR Tech space within Jakarta without mentioning our product or pitching the role. My goal was to understand their current roles, challenges, and the overall landscape. 🤝 2️⃣ Leverage referrals: Through these connections, I requested referrals for the best people in their network and established a talent pool for further exploration. This snowball effect allowed me to connect with a broader network, gain valuable insights, and work on talent benchmarking. 🔄 3️⃣ Embrace the community: As a member of The Talent Deck community, I sought guidance from individuals like Alex, who had prior experience in this region. When faced with questions, I turned to the TTD WhatsApp group instead of relying solely on Google - given the firsthand experience. 👥 4️⃣ Streamlining the process: To ensure adherence to Indonesian regulations, we partnered with Deel for Employer of Record (EoR) services when onboarding our SEA team. 📝 5️⃣ Seamless onboarding: Building a strong foundation was crucial. To foster team spirit and collaboration, we flew our initial hires to our Gurgaon office for the first week. 🛫 6️⃣ Centralized knowledge base: We created a comprehensive onboarding document on Notion, serving as a single source of truth (SSOT) for all essential information, policies, and documents required for a smooth onboarding experience. ✍🏻 7️⃣ Embracing remote work: We transitioned to a permanent 100% remote model, offering the option to work from partner co-working spaces. This includes a WeWork partnership in Jakarta, providing our team with a flexible work environment. 🏢 The outcome? We successfully hired two incredible individuals, Heru and Kurnia, within 20 days! This journey has been a valuable learning experience, and I'm excited to see our SEA team continue to grow and thrive! 🎉 Here's a picture from last year's visit of the SEA team to India. :) #inFolk #Globalworkforce #Remotework #Teambuilding

Last weekend, I opined on two topics, which were published in The Jakarta Post, Indonesia's largest English language daily on 31st August 2024. 1. Wrestling with Ai - The future of our work. 2. The Great Workplace Debate - Remote, hybrid or office Having built Moonfolks - Best Place to Work in Asia-Pacific 2024 on the principles of innovation and thought leadership, and being early adopters of #GenAi, my perspective on how GenAi will change the way we work can be exciting for the #creative industry. Where we can actually focus more time on ideation and thinking, get GenAi to do the menial time-consuming tasks, and use the base output to push executional boundaries. The actual impact on how this will change our work is yet to be imagined. On the debate between WFH, WFO or Work Hybrid, I strongly believe the benefits of building a strong culture strongly outweigh any other benefits of all formats. The same principle that led to us being crowned #BestPlaceToWork in #AsiaPacific. There's a reason why we've had separate places for work and life for over 2,000 years. When the two collided, we realized the importance of embracing both spaces equally. Enjoy the read. #Opinion #futureofwork #genai #workandlifebalance Maggie Tiojakin
