But how do you balance the time it takes to be strategic, creative, proactive and insightful when you have to take care of all the time-consuming but important administrative functions that HR requires?

Whether your company is a large organization that is looking to streamline its HR processes, or a smaller one that can’t afford to have a large, dedicated HR department, there is a range of tools available to make your human resources functions more efficient.

Here are some of the best HR tools you can have in your arsenal:

1. Jobr

Think of this as being like a dating app – but for finding the right candidate to match your company’s corporate culture. Candidates upload their profiles from Facebook and apply for your jobs using the app.

5. DeskAlerts

DeskAlerts is an internal communications solution that can be used to help improve a range of HR functions.
