Keeps watch Answers questions In use at MDS

HR Assistant

At MDS, we call ours MDSFlow.

Keeps HR records current without anyone having to chase people. It spots out-of-date resumes and drafts reminders, tells HR who hasn’t taken time off, and answers everyday HR questions from your own handbook.

Works in Microsoft Teams and in a web browser.
