SUMMARY EXECUTIVE

Today, in every organization personnel planning as an activity is necessary. It is an
important part of an organization. Human Resource Planning is a vital ingredient
for the success of the organization in the long run. There are certain ways that are
to be followed by every organization, which ensures that it has right number and
kind of people, at the right place and right time, so that organization can achieve
its planned objectives.

The objectives of Human Resource Department are Human Resource Planning.
Recruitment and Selection, Training and Development, Career planning. Transfer
and Promotion, Risk Management, Performance Appraisal and so on. Each
objective needs special attention and proper planning and implementation.

For every organization it is important to have a right person on a right job.
Recruitment and Selection plays a vital role in this situation. Shortage of skills and
the use of new technology are putting considerable pressure on how employers go
about Recruiting and Selecting staff. It is recommended to carry out a strategic
analysis of Recruitment and Selection procedure. Also training need identification
is necessary after selection process.

A formal definition states, "It is the process of finding and attracting capable
applicants for the employment. The process begins when new recruits are sought
and ends when their applicants are selected".

INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION
Recruitment is the process of attracting individuals on a timely basis in sufficient
numbers and with appropriate qualification, to apply for jobs within an
organization. The process of searching prospective employees with
multidimensional skills and experience that suits organization strategies in
fundamental to the growth of the organization, this demands more comprehensive
strategic perspective recruitment. Organizations require the services of large
number of personnel, these personnel occupy the various positions created to the
process of organization. Each position of the organization has certain specific
contributions to achieve the organizational objectives. The recruitment process of
the organizational has to be strong enough to attract and select the potential
candidates with right job specification. The recruitment process begins with human
resource planning and concludes with the selection of required number of
candidates, both HR staff and operating managers have responsibilities in the
process.

"Right person for the right job is the basic principle in recruitment and selection.
Every organisation should give attention to the selection of its manpower,
especially its managers. The operative manpower is equally important and essential
for the orderly working of an enterprise.

Every business organisation/unit needs manpower for carrying different business
activities smoothly and efficiently and for this recruitment and selection of
suitable candidates is essential. Human resource management in an organisation
will not be possible if unsuitable persons are selected and employment in a
business unit.



RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION PROCEDURE

9


RECRUITMENT:
Recruitment in HRM is a systematic process for Hiring Talent. It start from
identifying, attracting, screening, short listing interviewing, selecting and finally
hiring the most potential candidate for filling up the vacant job vacancies in an
organization.
In any business organization, employees are always considered to be their biggest
asset and People Management is the most important function managed by their
HRM Department. The primary job of Human Resource Management (HRM) Team
is to keep building the pool of Human Capital for the organization which can result
into selection of right candidate for right job. Recruitment aims for choosing and
hiring the right the person for the right Job at the right time. The Human Resource
Management Department often considers two major sources of recruitment
namely internal and external source of recruitment. The purpose of recruitment
process is to gather information about the talented and qualified individuals who
might be interested to work for the organization in an effective way.

DEFINITION:
Recruitment is defined as a process of discovering reliable sources of contacting
desirable employees which meets the staffing requirements of the organization.
Through recruitment process the organization can attract the adequate number of
manpower to facilitate the effective selection process and joining of efficient work
force.

Meaning:
Recruitment actually means a way to search the future employees of the
organization and stimulate qualified people to apply for the job. It helps to create a
pool of job seekers and improve the scope of recruitment of better employee.

10

Recruitment activity brings together the people who are qualified and looking for
job and the organizations which are searching for prospect employees. The properly
executed recruitment process leads to joining and selection of suitable manpower
in the organization.

SOURCE OF RECRUITMENT
(A) Internal Source of recruitment
Best employees can be found within the organisation… When a vacancy arises in
the organisation, it may be given to an employee who is already on the payroll.
Internal sources include promotion, transfer and in certain cases demotion. When
a higher post is given to a deserving employee, it motivates all other employees of
the organisation to work hard. The employees can be informed of such a vacancy
by internal advertisement.
The Internal Sources Are Given Below:
1. Transfers:
Transfer involves shifting of persons from present jobs to other similar jobs. These
do not involve any change in rank, responsibility or prestige. The numbers of
persons do not increase with transfers
2. Promotions:
Promotions refer to shifting of persons to positions carrying better prestige, higher
responsibilities and more pay. The higher positions falling vacant may be filled up
from within the organization. A promotion does not increase the number of
persons in the organization.
A person going to get a higher position will vacate his present position. Promotion
will motivate employees to improve their performance so that they can also get
promotion.
3. Present Employees:
The present employees of a concern are informed about likely vacant positions.
The employees recommend their relations or persons intimately known to them.
Management is relieved of looking out prospective candidates.

11

The persons recommended by the employees may be generally suitable for the
jobs because they know the requirements of various positions. The existing
employees take full responsibility of those recommended by them and also ensure
of their proper behaviour and performance.

(B) External Sources:
All organizations have to use external sources for recruitment to higher positions
when existing employees are not suitable. More persons are needed when
expansions are undertaken.
The external sources are discussed below:
1. Advertisement:
It is a method of recruitment frequently used for skilled workers, clerical and
higher staff. Advertisement can be given in newspapers and professional journals.
These advertisements attract applicants in large number of highly variable quality.
Preparing good advertisement is a specialized task. If a company wants to conceal
its name, a ‘blind advertisement’ may be given asking the applicants to apply to
Post Bag or Box Number or to some advertising agency.
2. Employment Exchanges:
Employment exchanges in India are run by the Government. For unskilled, semi-
skilled, skilled, clerical posts etc., it is often used as a source of recruitment. In
certain cases, it has been made obligatory for the business concerns to notify their
vacancies to the employment exchange. In the past, employers used to turn to
these agencies only as a last resort. The job-seekers and job-givers are brought
into contact by the employment exchanges.
3. Schools, Colleges and Universities:
Direct recruitment from educational institutions for certain jobs (i.e. placement)
which require technical or professional qualification has become a common
practice. A close liaison between the company and educational institutions helps
in getting suitable candidates. The students are spotted during the course of their
studies. Junior level executives or managerial trainees may be recruited in this
way.

12

4. Recommendation of Existing Employees:
The present employees know both the company and the candidate being
recommended. Hence some companies encourage their existing employees to
assist them in getting applications from persons who are known to them.
In certain cases, rewards may also be given if candidates recommended by them
are actually selected by the company. If recommendation leads to favouritism, it
will impair the morale of employees.
5. Factory Gates:
Certain workers present themselves at the factory gate every day for employment.
This method of recruitment is very popular in India for unskilled or semi-skilled
labour. The desirable candidates are selected by the first line supervisors. The
major disadvantage of this system is that the person selected may not be suitable
for the vacancy.

6. Casual Callers:
Those personnel who casually come to the company for employment may also be
considered for the vacant post. It is most economical method of recruitment. In
the advanced countries, this method of recruitment is very popular.
7. Central Application File:
A file of past applicants who were not selected earlier may be maintained. In
order to keep the file alive, applications in the files must be checked at
periodical intervals.
8. Labour Unions:
In certain occupations like construction, hotels, maritime industry etc., (i.e.,
industries where there is instability of employment) all recruits usually come from
unions. It is advantageous from the management point of view because it saves
expenses of recruitment. However, in other industries, unions may be asked to
recommend candidates either as a goodwill gesture or as a courtesy towards the
union.

13

9. Labour Contractors:

This method of recruitment is still prevalent in India for hiring unskilled and semi-
skilled workers in brick kiln industry. The contractors keep themselves in touch
with the labour and bring the workers at the places where they are required. They
get commission for the number of persons supplied by them.
10. Former Employees:
In case employees have been laid off or have left the factory at their own, they
may be taken back if they are interested in joining the concern (provided their
record is good).

11. Other Sources:
Apart from these major sources of external recruitment, there are certain other
sources which are exploited by companies from time to time. These include special
lectures delivered by recruiter in different institutions, though apparently these
lectures do not pertain to recruitment directly.
Then there are video films which are sent to various concerns and institutions so
as to show the history and development of the company. These films present the
story of company to various audiences, thus creating interest in them.
Various firms organise trade shows which attract many prospective employees.
Many a time advertisements may be made for a special class of work force (say
married ladies) who worked prior to their marriage.
These ladies can also prove to be very good source of work force. Similarly there is
the labour market consisting of physically handicapped. Visits to other companies
also help in finding new sources of recruitment.

SELECTION
DEFINITION AND MEANING OF SELECTION:
Definition: The Selection is the process of choosing the most suitable candidate
for the vacant position in the organization. In other words, selection means
weeding out unsuitable applicants and selecting those individuals with
prerequisite qualifications and capabilities to fill the jobs in the organization.
Most often, the selection and recruitment are used interchangeably but however
both have different scope. The former is a negative process that rejects as many
unqualified applicants as possible so as to hire the right candidate while the latter
is a positive process that attracts more and more candidates and stimulates them
to apply for the jobs.
PROCESS OF SELECTION:
The process of selection is a negative process as more candidates are rejected
than hired in contrast with positive program of recruitment, which seeks to induce
as many persons as possible to apply for a job in enterprises. Only successful
candidates leap over the hurdles & arrive at the finish line where as unsuccessful
ones do not.
THE FOLLOWING ARE IMPORTANT STEPS IN SELECTION PROCESS:
▪ Reception of application
▪ Preliminary screening interview ▪ Application blank ▪ Psychological tests.
▪ Evaluation interview
▪ Reference check or background investigation.
▪ Physical examination
▪ Placement

1. RECEPTION OF APPLICATION:
First step in selection process is inviting applications from prospective candidates.
A carefully devised application from is itself an affective selection device. The
main purpose of application is that to obtain information in the applicant’s own
handwriting regarding the suitability for employment. Application forms should be
simple & must contain related information. All the revised applications are
acknowledged.
2. PRELIMINARY SCREENING INTERVIEW:

17

A special interviewer or a high calibre receptionist in the employment office
usually conducts the initial screening.
When a large number of applications are available, the preliminary interview is
desirable for both from the company point of view & that of applicant seeking
interview.
The more non-selective, the recruitment program, & the more likely it is that a
preliminary interview will be required. This procedure is quite short & has its
objective of such interview is to screen out undesirable / unqualified candidates
at the very outset. Applicants are often asked why they are applying for a job in
the particular organization, about education, experience, etc. If an applicant is
eliminated in the early part, the company has save the expense & time
processing. Care is taken to ensure that the “weeding out” process dose not lead
to the eliminated of desirable workers.
3. APPLICATION BLANK:
A blank application from is the next important weeding out device in the selection
procedure. The successful candidates in preliminary interviews are supplied the
application blank to collect verifiable basic historical data from the candidate. The
information should be provided in applicant’s own handwriting. The application
blank is sometimes very long & comprehensive & some time brief.
INFORMATION IS GENERALLY CALLED ON THE FOLLOWING ITEMS:
▪ Biographical data ▪ Educational attainment.
▪ Work experiences salary ( demand & other benefits expected)
▪ Personal items( sports, hobbies, extra curricular activities, etc)
▪ Other items (names & addresses of pervious employer / references, etc).
▪ Superfluous questions are avoided.
4. PSYCHOLOGICAL TESTS:
As originations become complex & the number of jobs they offer increases,
managers become receptive to the acceptance of any jobs device. The decisions
are usually arrived with the help of psychological tests, which are more objective
& less biased than others.
5. PLACEMENT:

18

When a candidate passes all tests, interviews & physical examination, etc, he
becomes eligible for appointment. Placement is defined as “the determination of
the job to which an accepted candidate is to be assigned, &his assignment to that
job. It is matching of what the supervisor has reason to think he does with the job
demands & job requirement. It is a matching of what he imposts”.
Placement refers to assigning rank & responsibility to an individual, identifying
him with a particular job. If the person adjusts himself to the job & continues to
perform as per expectations, it might mean that the candidate is properly placed.


EVALUATION OF SELECTION PROCESS:
The board test of the effectiveness of the selection process is the quality of the
personnel hired. An organization must have competent & committed personnel.
The selection process, if properly done, will ensure availability of such employee.
How to evaluate the effectiveness of a selection program? A periodic audit is the
answer. Audit must be conducted by people who independently in the human
resource department
