There are HR consulting companies and there are HR system implementation companies. HR consulting companies don’t talk the technical language and HR system implementation companies don’t talk HR language. Rolling Arrays bridges this gap. Each of its consultants is expert in HR consulting and system implementation, so they understand the HR needs and translate perfectly into HR system. Due to this unique mix of skills, IMDA, Singapore collaborated with Rolling Arrays to help graduates train to become an HR Transformation Consultant who has knowledge and experience in both HR consulting and HR systems. Rolling Arrays has trained around 15 graduates from universities like SMU, NTU, and NUS since 2016.

“The RA consultants were very very patient with us as well as very accommodating and friendly. I really enjoyed this journey with RA, although it was a tough period. I have gone through similar automation and my experiences with implementation consultations were not good, but RA changed my mindset about consultants. I definitely have no hesitation to recommend RA to other companies.”
