In this episode of ValueMatrix.TV, host Puneet Arora sits down with Asrar Mohideen, Associate Director Global TA at Foodhub, a seasoned HR and talent leader with nearly two decades of experience across strategic human resources, talent acquisition, and organizational effectiveness.
Asrar opens up about his journey: starting as the first HR employee in a US-based SAP startup where he built talent acquisition and policies from scratch, moving into consulting for diverse client exposure, then spending over six years at Hinduja Group leading engineering hiring, team-building, and HRBP roles across six countries while deploying talent to Fortune 500 and global automotive clients. He shares his standout moment at Vestas – being the only person from Asia selected to travel to Denmark and centralize the entire recruitment process using SAP SuccessFactors.
Asrar also reflects on the seismic pre- and post-COVID changes in HR: the shift from rigid office hours to flexible WFH models, productivity gains, cost savings, and new global opportunities that let talent in India work for US, Australian, or New Zealand companies without visas. He notes the challenges HR faced in virtual engagement and how teams adapted with creative activities.
This episode delivers practical insights on building high-impact teams, evolving culture, and positioning HR as a true strategic partner to business success. Watch the full conversation now on Value Matrix.TV.
