1.The expansion of Kasios A close estimation of the company's size was obtained by plotting the number of Distinct Sources in the Data over time. The illustration shows the image of the dashboard used for analysis. Based on this, we can say that Kasios International is growing. From 11,084 employees in May 2015, it increased to 312,239 employees by end of Dec 2017.
2.Hiring and Attrition Patterns at Kasios A static view of the employee count in a company does not give a clear picture of whether the company is growing. A better measure to look at will be talent aquisition and employee attrition. Thus, this dashboard aims to help us analyse the attrition and aquisition patterns in Kasios International.
