Introduction to Recruitment and Selection
Finding and keeping the right people is one of the biggest and most important business
challenges this decade. But it’s a challenge organizations really need to get to grips with.
An organization’s real advantages over its competitors lie not so much in its products,
services or technology, but in its people.
So, to achieve goals, an organization needs to pinpoint what people, skills and abilities it
needs now and in the future. It wants the right person for the right job every time it
recruits. On the human resources front, productivity can be improved by ensuring that the
organization attracts the best talent at the lowest possible cost. This objective translates
into the adoption of the best recruitment and selection methods and instituting measures
to retain and develop them.

RECRUITMENT
Recruitment is defined as, “a process to discover the sources of manpower to meet the
requirement of the staffing schedule and to employ effective measures for attracting that
manpower in adequate numbers to facilitate effective selection of an efficient workforce”.
Objectives of Recruitment
To attract people with multi-dimensional skills and experiences that suits the present
and future organizational strategies.
To induct outsiders with a new perspective to lead the company.
To infuse fresh blood at all levels of the organization.
To develop an organizational culture that attracts competent people to the company.
To search for talent globally and not just within the company.
To design entry pay that competes on quality but not on quantum.
To anticipate and find people for positions that does not exist yet.
Sub-System of Recruitment
The recruitment consist of following sub functions:-
Finding out and developing the sources where the required number and kind of
employees will be available.
Developing suitable techniques to attract the desirable candidates.
Employing the techniques to attract candidates.
Stimulating as many candidates as possible and asking them to apply for jobs
irrespective of number of candidates required.
5
Factors Affecting Recruitment
The first activity of recruitment i.e. searching for prospective employees is affected
by many factors like:-
Organizational policy regarding filling up of certain percentage of vacancies by
internal candidates.
Local candidates (sons of soil).
Influence of trade unions.
Government regulations regarding reservations of certain numbers of vacancies
to candidates based on community/region/caste/sex
Influence of recommendations, nepotism etc. As such, the management is not
free to find out or develop the source of desirable candidates and alternatively
it has to diver its energies for developing the sources within the limits of those
factors through it cannot find suitable candidates for the jobs.
Sources of Recruitment
1 . Internal Sources of Recruitment
a) Present Permanent Employees:
Organizations consider the candidates from this source for higher level jobs due to:
1. Availability of most suitable candidates for jobs relatively or equally to the external
source.
2. To meet the trade union demands.
3. To the policy of the organization to motivate the present employees.
b) Present Temporary or Casual Employees.
6
Organizations find this source to fill the vacancies relatively at the lower level in
order to motivate them on the present job.
c) Retrenched or Retired Employees:
. The organization takes the candidates for employment from the retrenched employees
due to obligation, trade union pressure and the like .Sometimes the organizations prefers
to re-employ their retired employees as a token of their loyalty to the organization
d) Dependents of Deceased, Disabled, Retired and Present Employees:
Some organizations have a view to develop the commitment and loyalty of not
only the employee but also his family members and to the dependent of deceased,
disabled and present employees.
2. Internal Methods of Recruitment
a) Job Posting: When a human resource requisition form is received, a memo should be
written to appropriate supervisor stating that a job vacancy exist. A copy of the memo
should be posted on all notice boards by the supervisors so as to ensure that the
employee who might qualify is made aware of the job.
b) Employee Referral Schemes: Employee referral schemes or personal networking for
some firms are the preferred means of recruitment, as they can select employees after
judging their ability to fit into their work culture.
c) Promotions and Transfers:
7
Promotion is a move from employee’s current position into a different
position into a higher salary grade and a transfer is a move to any other job in
another department. A transfer can be to a higher level or the same level.
3.External Sources of Recruitment
a) Campus Recruitment:
Different types of organizations can get inexperienced candidates of different
types from various educational institutions like Colleges and Universities
imparting education in Science, Commerce, Arts, Engineering etc.
(b) Private Employment Agencies/ Consultants:
Private employment agencies perform the recruitment functions on
behalf of a client company by charging fee. Most of the organizations depend on
this source for highly specialized positions and executive positions.
(c) Public Employment Exchange:
The Government has set-up Public Employment Exchange in the country to
provide information about vacancies to the candidates and to help the
organizations in finding out suitable candidates.
4. Casual Applicants: Depending upon the image of the organization, its prompt
response, participants of the organization in the local activities, level of unemployment,
candidates apply casually for jobs through mail or hand over the applications in
Personnel Department.
8
5. Similar Organizations:
Generally, experienced candidates are available in organizations producing similar
products or engaged in similar business. The management can get most suitable
candidates from this source.
6. Trade Unions :
Generally, unemployed or underemployed persons or employees seeking change in
employment put a word to the trade union leaders’ with a view to getting suitable
employment. In view of this fact and in order to satisfy the trade union leaders, managers,
management enquires with the trade unions for suitable candidates.
7. Employment Advertisement:
Advertisements are taken out in newspapers, magazines, specialized journals, etc. by a
large number of companies to enable the employee to reach out to a large target audience.
8. Online Recruitment:
Recruitment websites and software make possible for managers to access information
that is crucial to managing their staff. Such websites have facilities where prospective
candidate can upload their CVs and apply for jobs suited to them. Such sites also make it
possible for recruiters and companies to post their staffing requirements and view profiles
of interested candidates.
9
SELECTION
After identifying the sources of human resources, searching for prospective employees
and stimulating them to apply for jobs in an organization, the next action to be taken by
the management is to perform the function of selecting the right employees at the right
time. The selection procedure is the system of functions and devices adopted in a given
company to ascertain whether the candidates’ specifications are matched with the job
specifications and requirements. The selection procedure cannot be effective until and
unless,
1. Requirement of the job to be filled, have been clearly specified.
2. Employee specifications (physical, mental, social, etc) have been clearly
formulated.
3. Candidate for screening have been attracted.
Significance of Selection Process
Selection of personnel for an organization is a crucial, complex and continuing function.
The ability of an organization to attain its goals effectively and to develop in a dynamic
environment largely depends upon the effectiveness of its selection programs. In a
situation where the right person is not selected, the remaining functions of personnel
management, employee-employer relations will not be effective. If the right person is
selected he/she is a valuable asset to the organization and if faulty selection is made, the
employee will become a liability to the organization. The process of personnel selection
involves collecting information about individuals for the purpose of determining
suitability for employment in a particular job.
10
Methods Used In Selection Process
(a) Interviews:
A selection procedure designed to predict future job performance on the basis of
applicants’ oral inquiries. It is useful in determining if the applicant has requisite
communicative or social skills which may be necessary for the job.
(b)Personality Test:
Personality tests typically measure one or more of five personality dimensions:
extroversion, emotional stability, agreeableness, conscientiousness and openness to
experts.
(c) Cognitive Ability Tests:
These are paper and pencil or individualized assessment measures of an individual’s
general mental ability or intelligence. These tests may be characterized as General
Intelligence Tests and Aptitude Tests.
(d) Work Sample Tests:
They are designed to have high content validity through a close relationship with the job.
observed under similar situations. These tests require the examinee to perform tasks that
are performed on the job.
(e) Assessment Centre:
An Assessment Centre can be defined as,” a variety of testing techniques designed to
allow candidates to demonstrate, under standardized condition , the skills and abilities
that are most essential for success in a given job”. They usually have some sort of in-
basket exercise which contains contents similar to those which are found in the in-basket
for the job which is being tested.
11
PROCESS OF RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION
1. Job Description:
Job descriptions are lists of the general tasks, or functions, and responsibilities of a
position. Typically, they also include to whom the position reports, specifications such as
the qualifications needed by the person in the job, salary range for the position, etc.
2. Employee Specification:
Job description can be the basis for employee specification.
This describes the attributes needed by a person best suited to perform the duties of the
job or to fill the role. It is an indication of attainment, achievement, abilities and aptitudes
needed to enable an individual perform a task to the required standard and to achieve the
desired objectives.
3. Attracting Candidates:
Recruitment is about attracting candidates who are qualified and capable of carrying out
the job, in the context of the employing organization. This is when the potential
candidates are told about the vacancy and encouraged to express their interest in the job.
4. Making Decisions:
The presentation as well as the content of the application influences the recruiter when
making short listing decisions. If good quality information is given to the candidates
before the start of appointment, chances of the appointment being successful are
increased. Hence this helps the recruiter in making judgments about the applicants.
12
5. Initial Screening:
If the recruiting effort has been successful, recruiters will be confronted with a number of
potentials applicants. Based on the job description and job specification, some of the
respondents can be eliminated by sharing the job description information with the
individual.
6. Completion of Applications Form:
Once the initial screening has been completed, applicants are asked to complete the
organization’s application form. In general terms, the application form gives a synopsis
of what applicants have been doing, their skills and their accomplishments.
7. Employment Tests:
An employment test is a means of assessing a job applicant’s characteristics through
paper-and-pencil responses or exercise. Three major types of tests used in the selection
process are ability, personality and performance tests. Ability tests measures mainly
mental, mechanical and clerical abilities or sensory capacities, personality tests are means
of measuring characteristics, such as patterns of thoughts, feelings and behaviors.
Performance tests are means of measuring practical ability on a specific job.
8. Comprehensive Interview:
The applicant may then be interviewed by the personnel department interviewers,
executives within the organization, potential supervisors, or colleagues. The
13
comprehensive interview is designed to probe into areas that cannot be addressed by the
application form or tests.
These areas consist of assessing one’s motivation, ability to work under pressure and
ability to fit in with the organization.
9. Background Investigation:
This steps includes contacting former employers into confirm the candidates work record
and to obtain their appraisal of the performance in the previous job. It also includes
verifying the educational accomplishments shown on the application and contacting
personal references.
10. Physical Examination:
The applicants may have to take a physical examination which is intended to screen out
those individuals who are unable to comply physically with the requirements of the job
and the organization.
11. Final Employment Selection:
Those who perform in the entire above steps are considered or eligible for employment.
The actual hiring decision is made by the Manager in the department that has the position
open.

FMCG Sector
What are Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG)?
Products which have a quick turnover, and relatively low cost are known as Fast Moving
Consumer Goods (FMCG). FMCG products are those that get replaced within a year.
Examples of FMCG generally include a wide range of frequently purchased consumer
products such as toiletries, soap, cosmetics, tooth cleaning products, shaving products
and detergents, as well as other non-durables such as glassware, bulbs, batteries, paper
products, and plastic goods. FMCG may also include pharmaceuticals, consumer
electronics, packaged food products, soft drinks, tissue paper, and chocolate bars.
A subset of FMCGs is Fast Moving Consumer Electronics which include innovative
electronic products such as mobile phones, MP3 players, digital cameras, GPS Systems
and Laptops. These are replaced more frequently than other electronic products.
White goods in FMCG refer to household electronic items such as Refrigerators, TVs,
Music Systems, etc.
In 2005, the Rs. 48,000-crore FMCG segment was one of the fast growing industries in
India. According to the AC Nielsen India study, the industry grew 5.3% in value between
2004 and 2005
15
Indian FMCG Sector
The Indian FMCG sector is the fourth largest in the economy and has a market size of
US$13.1 billion. Well-established distribution networks, as well as intense competition
between the organised and unorganised segments are the characteristics of this sector.
FMCG in India has a strong and competitive MNC presence across the entire value chain.
It has been predicted that the FMCG market will reach to US$ 33.4 billion in 2015 from
US $ billion 11.6 in 2003. The middle class and the rural segments of the Indian
population are the most promising market for FMCG, and give brand makers the
opportunity to convert them to branded products. Most of the product categories like
jams, toothpaste, skin care, shampoos, etc, in India, have low per capita consumption as
well as low penetration level, but the potential for growth is huge.
The Indian Economy is surging ahead by leaps and bounds, keeping pace with rapid
urbanization, increased literacy levels, and rising per capita income.
The big firms are growing bigger and small-time companies are catching up as well.
According to the study conducted by AC Nielsen, 62 of the top 100 brands are owned by
MNCs, and the balance by Indian companies. Fifteen companies own these 62 brands,
and 27 of these are owned by Hindustan Lever. Pepsi is at number three followed by
Thums Up. Britannia takes the fifth place, followed by Colgate (6), Nirma (7), Coca-Cola
(8) and Parle (9). These are figures the soft drink and cigarette companies have always
shied away from revealing. Personal care, cigarettes, and soft drinks are the three biggest
categories in FMCG. Between them, they account for 35 of the top 100 brand

The companies, listed above are the leaders in their respective sectors. The personal care
category has the largest number of brands, i.e., 21, inclusive of Lux, Lifebuoy, Fair and
Lovely, Vicks, and Ponds. There are 11 HLL brands in the 21, aggregating Rs. 3,799
crore or 54% of the personal care category. Cigarettes account for 17% of the top 100
FMCG sales, and just below the personal care category. ITC alone accounts for 60%
volume market share and 70% by value of all filter cigarettes in India. The foods category
in FMCG is gaining popularity with a swing of launches by HLL, ITC, Godrej, and
others. This category has 18 major brands, aggregating Rs. 4,637 crore. Nestle and Amul
slug it out in the powders segment. The food category has also seen innovations like
softies in ice creams, chapattis by HLL, ready to eat rice by HLL and pizzas by both
GCMMF and Godrej Pillsbury. This category seems to have faster development than the
stagnating personal care category. Amul, India's largest foods company, has a good
presence in the food category with its ice-creams, curd, milk, butter, cheese, and so on.
Britannia also ranks in the top 100 FMCG brands, dominates the biscuits category and
has launched a series of products at various prices.
In the household care category (like mosquito repellents), Godrej and Reckitt are two
players. Goodknight from Godrej, is worth above Rs 217 crore, followed by Reckitt's
Mortein at Rs 149 crore. In the shampoo category, HLL's Clinic and Sunsilk make it to
the top 100, although P&G's Head and Shoulders and Pantene are also trying hard to be
positioned on top. Clinic is nearly double the size of Sunsilk.
Dabur is among the top five FMCG companies in India and is a herbal specialist. With a
turnover of Rs. 19 billion (approx. US$ 420 million) in 2005-2006, Dabur has brands like
19
Dabur Amla, Dabur Chyawanprash, Vatika, Hajmola and Real. Asian Paints is enjoying a
formidable presence in the Indian sub-continent, Southeast Asia, Far East, Middle East,
South Pacific, Caribbean, Africa and Europe. Asian Paints is India's largest paint
company, with a turnover of Rs.22.6 billion (around USD 513 million). Forbes Global
magazine, USA, ranked Asian Paints among the 200 Best Small Companies in the World
Cadbury India is the market leader in the chocolate confectionery market with a 70%
market share and is ranked number two in the total food drinks market. Its popular brands
include Cadbury's Dairy Milk, 5 Star, Eclairs, and Gems. The Rs.15.6 billion (USD 380
Million) Marico is a leading Indian group in consumer products and services in the
Global Beauty and Wellness space.
Outlook
There is a huge growth potential for all the FMCG companies as the per capita
consumption of almost all products in the country is amongst the lowest in the world.
Again the demand or prospect could be increased further if these companies can change
the consumer's mindset and offer new generation products. Earlier, Indian consumers
were using non-branded apparel, but today, clothes of different brands are available and
the same consumers are willing to pay more for branded quality clothes. It's the quality,
promotion and innovation of products, which can drive many sectors.
20
Corporate Social Responsibility
FMCG companies have now started taking Corporate Social Responsibility seriously. For
instance, to encounter domestic violence, Ponds has tied up with the United Nations
Development Fund(UNDF) for Women. Surf Excel is funding the education of children.
Most brands link themselves with the social causes, thereby linking consumers with the
brands and gaining goodwill in the market.
21
INTRODUCTION TO UNILEVER
Unilever was formed through the 1930 merger of Dutch margarine company Margarine
Unie and British soap maker Lever Brothers. The combination of the two companies
made good sense--they both used the same raw materials, had similar distribution
channels and participated in large-scale marketing of household products. In the
beginning, Unilever had operations in 40 countries, but soon expanded its reach. The
1950s saw the company focusing on growth by investing in research and new
technologies, while it began expanding through acquisitions in the 1970s and 1980s.
These days, Unilever has diversified its product offerings far beyond margarine and soap.
The company controls a supermarket's worth of brands: Hellmann's mayonnaise, Flora
and Becel spreads and yogurt drinks, Breyers ice creamBoursin cheese, Dove soap,
shampoo, body wash, deodorant and more, Pond's face products, Wish-Bone salad
dressings, Knorr soup mixes, seasonings and sauces, Bertolli sauces, olive oil and frozen
prepared meals, Ragu sauces, Q-tips, Lipton teas, soups and seasonings (Lipton's Yellow
Label is one of the most popular teas in the world) and--phew!--Karo syrup.
