In this episode of ValueMatrix.TV, host Roydon Cerejo sits down with Sanketh Ramkrishnamurthy, Global Head of People Operations at AutoRABIT, for a candid look at how HR has changed over nearly two decades.
Sanketh walks through the biggest shifts he has seen firsthand. What started as manual data entry in Excel sheets, full of formulas and keyword filters, has become instant dashboards and fingertip insights. Organizations and HR teams can now scale faster than ever.
He explains that hiring has evolved too. It is no longer about simply closing a vacancy. Leaders now look for long-term capability and learnability, asking whether someone can grow beyond today’s tech stack into AI, DevOps, or whatever comes next. During interviews, the focus is on what candidates do proactively, not just what is asked of them.
On AI, Sanketh is clear: it is a powerful tool that handles repetitive tasks like resume screening and scheduling, but it will never replace the human judgment needed to understand people and decide true fit.
If you lead people or build teams, this conversation delivers practical ways to stay ahead while keeping the human side of HR front and center. Watch the full episode now.
