INTRODUCTION
The human resources are the most important assets of an organization. The success or failure of
an organization is largely dependent on the caliber of the people working therein. Without
positive and creative contributions from people, organizations cannot progress and prosper. In
order to achieve the goals or the activities of an organization, therefore, they need to recruit
people with requisite skills, qualifications and experience. While doing so, they have to keep the
present as well as the future requirements of the organization in mind. Recruitment is distinct
from Employment and Selection. Once the required number and kind of human resources are
determined, the management has to find the places where the required human resources re/will is
available and also find the means of attracting them towards the organization before selecting
suitable candidates for jobs. All this process is generally known as recruitment. Some people use
the term Recruitment for employment. These two are not one and the same. Recruitment is
only one of the steps in the entire employment process. Some others use the term recruitment for
selection. These are not the same either. Technically speaking, the function of recruitment
precedes the selection function and it includes only finding, developing the sources of
prospective employees and attracting them to apply for jobs in an organization, whereas the
selection is the process of finding out the most suitable candidate to the job out of the candidates
attracted (i.e., recruited).Formal definition of recruitment would give clear cut idea about the
function of recruitment.

DEFINITION OF RECRUITMENT
Recruitment is defined as, a process to discover the sources of manpower to meet the
requirements of the staffing schedule and to employee effective measures for attracting that
manpower in adequate numbers to facilitate effective selection of an efficient workforce. Edwin
B. Flipped defined recruitment as the process of searching for prospective employees and
stimulating them to apply for jobs in the organization. Recruitment is a linking function-
joining together those with jobs to fill and those seeking jobs. It is a joining process in that it
tries to bring together job seekers and employer with a view to encourage the former to apply for
a job with the latter .In order to attract people for the jobs, the organization must communicate
the position in such a way that job seekers respond. To be cost effective, the recruitment process
should attract qualified applicants and provide enough information for unqualified persons to
self-select themselves out. Thus, the recruitment process begins when new recruits are sought
and ends when their applications are submitted. The result is a pool of applicants from which
new employees are selected.
9
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
10/67
PURPOSES AND IMPORTANCE
The general purpose of recruitment is to provide a pool of potentially qualified job candidates.
Specifically, the purposes are to:
Determine the present and future requirements of the organization in conjunction with its
personnel-planning and job-analysis activities.
Increase the pool of job candidates at minimum cost.
Help increase the success rate of the selection process by reducing the number of visibly,
under qualified or overqualified job applicants.
Help reduce the probability that job applicants, once recruited and selected, will leave theorganization only after a short period of time.
Begin identifying and preparing potential job applicants who will be appropriate
candidates.
Induct outsiders with a new perspective to lead the company.
Infuse fresh blood at all levels of the organization.
Develop an organizational culture that attracts competent people to the company.
Search or head hunt/head pouch people whose skills fit the companys values.
Devise methodologies for assessing psychological traits.
Search for talent globally and not just within the company.
Design entry pay that competes on quality but not on quantum.
Anticipate and find people for positions that do not exist yet
Increase organizational and individual effectiveness in the short termed long term.
Evaluate the effectiveness of various recruiting techniques and sources for all types of job
10

applicants. Recruitment represents the first contact that a company makes with potential
employees. It is through recruitment that many individuals will come to know a
company, and eventually decide whether they wish to work for it. A well-planned and
well-managed recruiting effort will result in high-quality applicants, whereas, a
haphazard and piecemeal effort will result in mediocre ones. High-quality employees
cannot be selected when better candidates do not know of job openings, are not interested
in working for the company and do not apply. The recruitment process should inform
qualified individuals about employment opportunities, create a positive image of the
company, provide enough information about the jobs so that applicants can make
comparisons with their qualifications and interests, and generate enthusiasm among the
best candidates so that they will apply for the vacant positions. The negative
consequences of a poor recruitment process speak volumes about its role in an
organization. The failure to generate an adequate number of reasonably qualified
applicants can prove costly in several ways. It can greatly complicate the selection
process and may result in lowering of selection standards. The poor quality of selection
means extra cost on training and supervision. Furthermore, when recruitment fails to
meet the organizational needs for talent, a typical response is to raise entry-level pay
scales. This can distort traditional wage and salary relationships in the organization,
resulting in avoidable consequences. Thus, the effectiveness of a recruitment process can
play a major role in determining the resources that must be expended on other HR
activities and their ultimate success.
SUB-SYSTEMS OF RECRUITMENT
The recruitment process consists of the following four 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
11
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
12/67
of the number of candidates require.
Employing the techniques to attract candidates.
Stimulating as many candidates as possible and asking them to apply for jobs irrespective
of the number of candidates required. Management has to attract more candidates in order
to increase the selection ratio so that the most suitable candidate can be selected out of
the total candidates available. Recruitment is positive as it aims at increasing the number
of applicants and selection is somewhat negative as it selects the suitable candidates in
which process; the unsuitable candidates are automatically eliminated. Though, the
function of recruitment seems to be easy, a number of factors make performance of
recruitment a complex one.

14/67
a) ADVERTS AND REGISTRATION:
As a rule you come to us in one of two ways. The first is when you see us advertising for a rolethat you think is a bit of you. You like what you see, follow the prompts and find yourself
looking at a registration form.
b) APPLICATION:
so you've seen your dream job or something like it and you've decided to take the plunge and
apply. Fantastic Fill in the details and you'll be attached to the job. Make a note of the close date
on the advert. This will give you an idea of when you can expect a response from us. We try to
screen all applicants within a couple of days of the role closing. Depending on the role it might
take a bit longer (we can get up to 500 applicants for a role!) but you should know where you
stand by about 4 days after the job closes. From here you will get an email outlining whether you
are through the first round of screening or not. Don't worry if it doesn't go well the first time
around, some people take five or six applications before the right role comes up and they get into
wave beverages. Remember, we advertise all of our roles internally as well so you will generally
be up against people already working for us.
c) SHORT LIST:
Youve made the shortlist! Hurrah! What does this mean? Good question. Basically what this
means is that you have been selected from all of the initial applicants as someone that might just
have what we are looking for. Generally, shortlists have about 8-10 candidates. These are the
folk that we (the recruitment team) want to put in front of the hiring manager because they match
some or all of the criteria we need for that particular role. From here the list is cut in half and we
approach or top 3-5 candidates to get them in for an interview.
14
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
15/67
d) FIRST INTERVIEW:
First Interview Nervous? You shouldn't be, we're nice people. The first interview will
generally look at a few aspects. First, we'll touch on what you know about us, and then
we'll discuss the role you are applying for. After this we'll briefly go through your CV
with you and follow that up with more detailed questions around the competencies
required for that specific role. These competencies could be things like Coaching,
Building Trust, Sales Disposition or Adaptability depending on the role you have applied
for. The interview itself should take approximately 45-60 minutes and will likely be
conducted by the hiring manager and a member of the recruitment team.
e) PSYCHOMETRIC TESTNG:
If you get through the interview the chances are that we are going to ask you to undertake
some psychometric testing. Don't worry it's not as onerous as it sounds, there are no
couches involved and we don't think you are crazy. All this is an opportunity for us to
understand how you think, what sort of team member, leader, sales person you might be.
How you interact with others, handle pressure etc. As with all of these stages they are just
a piece of the puzzle. These will be sent out via email and the results will come directly
to the recruitment team.
f) 2ND INTERVIEW:
Next step 2nd interviews, don't worry, not far to go now. These will vary from role to
role but often hiring managers will use these to give you a good look at the role, the team
and the environment etc. This is also an opportunity to meet the next level of
management. Depending on the role you have applied for you might need to run through
a scenario, do some job shadowing or present to an audience. Your recruiter will take you
through all of the detail well ahead of the interview to make sure you feel prepared and
ready to do your best. This is also the stage that you will need to return all of your
completed application forms including health and safety declarations and Ministry of
Justice forms..
15
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
16/67
g) REFERENCE:
This is the bit where we have narrowed things down to one or two candidates for the role
and we need to discuss your employment history with a past or present manager. Nothing
to worry about, we just want to confirm a few things about the way you work. Ideally we
need to talk to your current manager but we understand that you might not want to advise
them at this stage of your plans to move on. We always look to complete two references
so if you want we can leave your current one until we are pretty sure you're the one that
we want. You're going to need to tell them at some point, they'll notice if you're not there
h) OFFER:
Congratulations! Looks like you've got the job or at least we'd like to offer one to you. At
offer stage you'll be contacted by either the recruiter or the hiring manager to discuss the
terms your employment. You'll discuss salary, benefits, start date, all the things you need
to clear up before you start in your new role. Once you've accepted, your details will be
sent through to our People and Performance team to generate your contract and kick off
the HR relationship that'll continue throughout your time with wave beverages.
FACTORS AFFECTING RECRUITMENT
The following are the two important factors affecting Recruitment:-
1) INTERNAL FACTORS
A) Recruiting policy
B) Temporary and part-time employees
C) Recruitment of local citizens
D) Engagement of the company in HRP
E) Companys size
16
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
17/67
F) Cost of recruitment
G) Companys growth and expansion
2) EXTERNAL FACTORS
A) Supply and Demand factors
B) Unemployment Rate
C) Labor-market conditions
D) Political and legal considerations
E) Social factors
F) Economic factors
G) Technological factors
INDUCEMENTS
Organizational inducements are all the positive features and benefits offered by an organization
that serves to attract job applicants to the organization. Three inducements need specific mention
here, they are:-
1) Compensation:
Starting salaries, frequency of pay increases, incentives and fringe benefits can all serve as
inducements to potential employees.
2) Career Opportunities:
These help the present employees to grow personally and professionally and also attract good
people to the organization. The feeling that the company takes care of employee career
aspirations serves as a powerful inducements to potential employees.
17
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
18/67
3) Image or Reputation:
Factors that affect an organizations reputation include its general treatment of employees, the
nature and quality of its products and services and its participation in worthwhile social
endeavors.
CASE EXAMPLE (inducements): INFOSYS: The Software Powerhouse
Infosys Technologies Limited (ITL), one of the countrys best known software exporting house,
treats its employees as partners and co-owners. It provides them challenging assignments, allows
flexible working hours, rewards them solely on the basis of performance and conducts regular
training programmers to upgrade their skills. It has an Employee Stock Option Plan (ESOP) to
share its wealth with employees on the basis of their performance. Even lower level employeesare proud owners of the prized stock worth 25 to 40 lakh rupees, according to Narayan Murthy,
the CEO of ITL. Apart from increasing shareholder value, ESOP has greatly enhanced the image
of the company in the information technology industry where employee attrition rates are very
high. It is small wonder companies like Procter & Gamble, Johnson & Johnson, Citibank have
reposed their faith in SOP as a way of attracting and retaining talent in a highly competitive
environment.
CONSTRAINTS
If a firm has a poor image in the market, many of the prospective candidates may not even apply
for vacancies advertised by the firm. If the job is not attractive, qualified people may not even
apply. Any job that is viewed as boring, hazardous, anxiety producing, low-paying, or lacking in
promotion potential seldom will attract a qualified pool of applicants. Recruiting efforts require
money. Sometimes because of limited resources, organizations may not like to carry on the
recruiting efforts for long periods of time, this can, ultimately, constrain a recruiters effort to
attract the best person for the job. Government policies often come in the way of recruiting
people as per the rules of the company or on the basis of merit/seniority, etc. For example,
reservations to specific groups (such as scheduled castes, scheduled tribes, backward castes,
physically handicapped and disabled persons, ex-servicemen, etc.) have to be observed as per
constitutional provisions while filling up vacancies in government corporations, departmental
18
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
19/67
undertakings, local bodies, quasi-government organizations, etc.
CORPORATE MISSION, OBJECTIVES, STRATEGIESAND TACTICS (MOST)
Corporations have started linking their Mission, Objectives, Strategies and Tactics (MOST) to
the functions of recruitment and selection. The economic liberalizations and consequent
competition through quality and services necessitated the companies to search for and attract
competent human resources. Corporations focusing on new business development will have to
seek entrepreneurial abilities, companies planning to withdraw from diversifications must look
for pragmatists and companies chasing growth alliances should employ people comfortable in
different cultural backgrounds. Above all, companies must hire for the future, anticipating jobs
that may not be in existence yet. Recruitment managers must focus for attitudes and approaches
that fit the corporate goals and culture.
19
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
20/67
RECRUITMENT POLICY
Recruitment policy of any organization is derived from the personnel policy of the same
organization. In other words the former is a part of the latter. However, recruitment policy by
itself should take into consideration the governments reservation policy, policy regarding sons
of soil, etc., personnel policies of other organizations regarding merit, internal sources, social
responsibility in absorbing minority sections, women, etc. Recruitment policy should commit
itself to the organizations personnel policy like enriching the organizations human resources or
servicing the community by absorbing the retrenched or laid-off employees or casual/temporary
employees or dependents of present/former employees etc. The following factors should be
taken into consideration in formulating recruitment policy. They are:-
a. Government policies
b. Personnel policies of other competing organizations
c. Organizations personnel policies
d. Recruitment sources
e. Recruitment needs
f. Recruitment cost
g. Selection criteria and preference
RECRUITMENT- Matching the of the organization & applicants
20
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
21/67
IMPACT OF PERSONNEL POLICIES ON RECRUITMENT POLICIES
Recruitment policies are mostly drawn from personnel policies of the organization. According to
Dale Yoder and Paul D. Stendhal, general personnel policies provide a wide variety of guidelines
to be spelt out in recruitment policy. After formulation of the recruitment policies, the
management has to decide whether to centralize or decentralize the recruitment function.
CENTRALISED V/s DECENTRALISED RECRUITMENT
Recruitment practices vary from one organization to another. Some organizations like
commercial banks resort to centralized recruitment while some organizations like the Indian
Railway resort to decentralized recruitment practices. Personnel department at the central office
performs all the functions of recruitment in case of centralized recruitment and personnel
Departments at unit level/zonal level perform all the functions of recruitment concerning to the
jobs of the respective unit or zone.
MERITS OF CENTRALISED RECRUITMENT
1) Average cost of recruitment per candidate/unit should be relatively less due to economies of
scale.
2) It would have more expertise available to it.
3) It can ensure broad uniformity among human resources of various units/zones in respect of
education, skill, knowledge, talent, etc.
4) It would generally be above malpractices, abuse of powers, favoritism, bias, etc.
5) It would facilitate interchangeability of staff among various units/zones.
6) It enables the line managers of various units and zones to concentration their operational
activities by relieving them from the recruiting functions.
7) It enables the organization to have centralized selection procedure, promotional and transfer
procedure, etc.
21
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
22/67
8) It ensures the most effective and suitable placement to candidates.
9) It enables centralized training programmers which further brings uniformity and minimizes
average cost of staff.
MERITS OF DECENTRALISED RECRUITMENT
1) The unit concerned concentrates only on those sources/places wherein normally gets the
suitable candidates. As such the cost of recruitment would be relatively less.
2) The unit gets most suitable candidates as it is well aware of the requirements of the job
regarding culture, traditional, family background aspects, local factors, social factors, etc.
3) Units can recruit candidates as and when they are required without any delay.
4) The units would enjoy freedom in finding out, developing the sources, in selecting and
employing the techniques to stimulate the candidates.
5) The unit would relatively enjoy advantage about the availability of information, control and
feedback and various functions/processes of recruitment.
Departments at unit level/zonal level perform all the functions of recruitment concerning to the
jobs of the respective unit or zone.
SOURCES OF RECRUITMENT
The sources of recruitment may be broadly divided into two categories: internal sources and
external sources. Both have their own merits and demerits. Lets examine these. Internal
Sources:-Persons who are already working in an organization constitute the internal sources.
Retrenched employees, retired employees, dependents of deceased employees may also
constitute the internal sources. Whenever any vacancy arises, someone from within the
organization is upgraded, transferred, promoted or even demoted. External Sources External
sources lie outside an organization. Here the organization can have the services of :
(a) Employees working in other organizations.
22
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
23/67
(b)Jobs aspirants registered with employment exchanges.
(c) Students from reputed educational institutions.
(d) Candidates referred by unions, friends, relatives and existing employees.
(e) Candidates forwarded by search firms and contractors.
(f) Candidates responding to the advertisements, issued by the organization.
(g) Unsolicited applications/ walk-ins.

especially, in terms of training and operating cost. In course of time, the employee may find the

on the day, but dont worry youll have plenty of time to prepare.
4) PSYCHOMETRIC TESTS:
Psychometric tests are timed exercises that examine your abilities and potential. On
occasions, we may also more specific things about you. If youre asked to complete a
psychometric test, well send you information and advice in advance on how to prepare.
5) ROLE PLAYS/SITUATIONAL EXERSISES:
Designed to assess how you react in certain situation, these help to highlight particular skills
and well youre suited for a position. You may be given facts and figures to review, or a
report to complete; we may also have an assessor acting as a customer or employee to
stimulate a situation that could occur in the work place. Dont worry, youll be given a brief
and ample time to prepare.

THE PROCESS
Selection is usually a series of hurdles or steps. Each one must be successfully cleared before
the applicant proceeds to the next one. The time and emphasis place on each step will
definitely vary from one organization to another and indeed, from job to job within the
same organization.
The sequence of steps may also vary from job to job and organization organization. For
example some organizations may give more importance to testing while others give
more emphasis to interviews and reference checks. Similarly a single brief
selection interview might be enough for applicants for lower level positions, while
applicants for managerial jobs might be interviewed by a number of people.
29

Steps in selecting process
1) Reception
A company is known by the people it employs. In order to attract people with talents, skills and
experience a company has to create a favorable impression on the applicants right from
the stage of reception. Whoever meets the applicant initially should be tactful and able to extend
help in a friendly and courteous way. Employment possibilities must be presented honestly and
clearly. If no jobs are available at that point of time, the applicant may be asked to call back the
personnel department after sometime.
2) Screening Interview
A preliminary interview is generally planned by large organization to cut the cost of selection by
allowing only eligible candidates to go through the further stage in selection. A junior executive
from the personnel department may elicit responses from the applicants on important items
determining the suitability of an applicant for a job such as age, education, experience, pay
expectations, aptitude, location; choice etc. this courtesy interview as it is often called helps the
department screen out obvious misfit. If the department finds the candidate suitable, a prescribed
application form is given to the applicants to fill and submit.
3) Application Blank
Application blank or form is one of the most common methods used to collect information on the
various aspects of the applicants academic, social, demographic, work related background and
references. It is a brief history sheet of employees background, usually containing the following
things:
a. Personal data (address, sex, telephone number)
b. Marital data
c. Educational data
d. Employment Experience
e. Extra-curricular activities
f. References and Recommendations
30
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
31/67
Usefulness of Application Blank or Form
Application blank is highly useful selection tool, in that way it serves three important purposes:
1) It introduces the candidate to the company in a formal way.
2) It helps the company to have a cross-comparison of the applicants; the company can screen
and reject candidates if they fail to meet the eligibility criteria at this stage itself.
3) It can serve as a basis to initiate a dialogue in the interview.
4) Selection Testing
In this section let examine the selections test or the employment test that attempts to asses
intelligence, abilities, personality trait, performance simulation tests including work sampling
and the tests administered at assessment centers followed by discussion about the polygraph test,
graphology and integrity test. a test is a standardized, objective measure of a persons behavior,
performance or attitude. It is standardized because the way the tests is carried out, the
environment in which the test is administered and the way the individual scores are calculated
are uniformly applied. It is objective in that it tries to measure individual differences in a
scientific way giving very little room for individual bias and interpretation. Over the years
employment test have not only gained importance but also a certain amount of inevitability in
employment decisions, since they try to objectively determine how well an applicant meets the
job requirement, most companies do not hesitate to invest their time and money in selection
testing in a big way.
Some of the commonly used employment tests are:
1) Intelligence tests
2) Aptitude tests
3) Personality tests4) Achievement tests
5) Miscellaneous tests such as graphology, polygraph and honesty tests.
31
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
32/67
1) Intelligence Tests: These are mental ability test. They measure the incumbents
learning ability and the ability to understand instructions and make judgments. The basic
objective of such is to pick up employee who is alert and quick at learning things so that
can be offered adequate training to improve their skill for the benefit of the
organization .these tests measure several abilities such as memory, vocabulary, verbal
fluency, numerical ability, perception etc. e.g. Standford-binet test, Benet Simon test, the
Wechsler adult intelligence scale are example of standard intelligence test.
2) Aptitude Test: Aptitude test measure an individuals potential to learn certain skills-
clerical, mechanical, mathematical, etc. These tests indicate whether or not an individual
has the capabilities to learn a given job quickly and efficiently. In order to recruit
efficient office staff, aptitude tests are necessary. An aptitude tests is always administered
in combination with other tests like intelligence and personality tests as it does not
measure on-the-job-motivation
3) Personality Test: Of all test required for selection the personality tests have generated a
lot of heat and controversy. The definition of personality, methods of measuring
personality factors and the relationship between personality factors and actual job criteria
has been the subject of much discussion. Researchers have also questioned whether
applicants answer all the items truthfully or whether they try to respond in a socially
desirable manner. Regardless of these objections, many people still consider personalityas an important component of job success.
4) Achievement Tests: These are designed to measure what the applicant can do on the
job currently, i.e., whether the tested actually knows what he or she claims to know. A
typing test tests shows the typing proficiency, a short hand tests measures the tested
ability to take dictation and transcribe, etc. Such proficiency tests are also known as work
sampling test. Work sampling is a selection tests wherein the job applicants ability to do
a small portion of the job is tested. These tests are of two types; Motor, involving
physical manipulations of things(e.g., trade tests for carpenters, electricians, plumbers) or
Verbal, involving problem situation that are primarily language-oriented or people-
oriented(e.g., situational tests for supervisory jobs).Since work samples are miniature
replicas of the actual job requirements, they are difficult to fake. They offer concrete
32
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
33/67
evidence of the proficiency of an applicant as against his ability to the job. However,
work sample tests are not cost-effective and every candidate has to be tested individually.
It is not easy to develop work samples for each job. Moreover, it is not applicable to all
levels of the organization
5) Simulation Tests: Simulation exercise is a tests which duplicate many of the activities
and problems an employee faces while at work. Such exercises are commonly used while
hiring managers at various levels in an organization. To asses the potential of a candidate
for managerial positions assessment centers are commonly used.
6) Assessment Centre: An assessment centre is an extended work sample. It uses
procedures that incorporate group and individual exercises. These exercises are designed
to stimulate the type of work which the candidate will be expected to do. Initially a small
batch of applicants comes to the assessment centre (a separate room). Their performance
in the situational exercise is observed and evaluated by a team of 6-8 assessors. The
assessors judgment on each exercise is complied and combined to have a summary
rating for each candidate being assessed.
Difference between Work Sample method and Assessment Centre
WORK SAMPLE ASSESSMENT CENTER
Suitable for routine, repetitive jobs
with visible outcomes
Suitable for managerial jobs, the
outcomes are not behaviorally
observable
Takes a few minutes to test the
applicant
Takes days to conduct various
exercises
Evaluated by one supervisor Evaluated by a team of trained
observers
Can be done on location where the
applicant performs a small segment of
the job
Requires a separate facility. The centers
are conducted for a variety of task
segments (that may not be the real job)
that may be included in the real job
33
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
34/67
Usually completed on one applicant at
a time
Usually performed on groups of
applicants at the same time
Evaluation of Assessment Centre Technique:
The assessment centre technique has a number of advantages. The flexibility of form and
content, the use of variety of techniques, standardized way of interpreting behavior and pooled
assessor judgments accounts for its acceptance as a valuable selection tool for managerial jobs. It
is praised for content validity and wide acceptance in corporate circles. By providing a realistic
job preview, the techniques helps an candidate make an appropriate career choice. The
performance ratings are more objective in nature and could be used for promotions and career
development decisions readily. However, the method is expensive to design and administer.
Blind Acceptance of assessment data without considering other information on candidates (past
and current performance) is always not advisable.
7) Graphology Test: Graphology involves using a trained evaluator to examine the lines, loops,
hooks, stokes, curves and flourishes in a persons handwriting to assess the persons personality
and emotional make-up. The recruiting company, may, for example, ask the applicants to
complete the application forms and write about why they want a job. These samples may be
finally sent to graphologist for analysis and the result may be put use while selecting a person.
The use of graphology, however, is dependent on the training and expertise of the person doing
the analysis. In the actual practice, questions of validity and just plain skepticism have limited in
use.
8) Polygraph (Lie-Detector) tests: the polygraph records physical changes in the body as the
tests subject answers a series of questions. It records fluctuations in respiration, blood pressure
and perspiration on a moving roll of graph paper. The polygraph operator forms a judgment as to
whether the subjects response was truthful or deceptive by examining the biological movements
recorded on the paper. Critic, however, questions the appropriateness of the polygraphs in
establishing the truth about an applicants behavior. The fact is that the polygraph records the
34
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
35/67
biological reaction in response to stress and does not record lying or even conditions necessarily
accompanying lying. Is it possible to prove that the responses recorded by the polygraph occur
only because a lie has been told? What about those situations in which a person lies without guilt
(pathological liar) or lies believing the responses to be true? The fact of the matter is that
polygraphs are neither reliable nor valid. Since they invade the privacy of those tested, many
applicants vehemently oppose the use of polygraph as a selection tool.
9) Integrity Test: These are designed to measure employees honestly to predict those who are
more likely to steal from an employer or otherwise act in a manner unacceptable to the
organization. The applicants who take these tests are expected to answer several yes or no
type questions such as:
35
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
36/67
Typical Integrity Questions Yes -No
Often these tests contain questions that repeat themselves in some way and the evaluator then
examines the consistency in responses. Companies that have used integrity tests have reported
success in tracking employees who indulge in theft. However, these tests ultimately suffer
from the same weakness as polygraph and graphology test.
Tests as Selection Tool:
Test are useful selection devices in that they UN over qualifications and talents that cant be
detected otherwise. They can be used to predict how well one would perform if one is hired, why
one behaves the way one does, what situational factors influence employee productivity, etc.
Tests also provide unbiased information that can be put to scientific and statistical analysis.
However; tests suffer from sizeable errors of estimate. Most psychological tests also have one
common weakness, that is, we cant use scales which have a know zero point and equal intervals.
An intelligence test, for example starts at an arbitrary point, where a person may not be able to
answer question properly. This does not mean that the person is totally lacking in intelligence.
36
TYPICAL INTEGRATED QUESTION: yes No
1) Have you ever told a lie?
2) Do you report to your boss if you know of another employee
stealing from the store?
3) Do you carry office stationary back to your home for
occasional use?
4) Do you mark attendance for your colleagues also?
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
37/67
Likewise, a person who is able to answer all the 10questions correctly cannot be called twice as
intelligent as the one who was able to answer only 5. If the test has commenced at some other
point, where there easier questions, their score might have been different. Test also fails to elicit
truthful responses from testers. To compound the problem further, test results are interpreted in a
subjective was by testers and unless these testers do their homework well, the results may not be
reliable.
Standards for Selection Tests
To be useful as predictive and diagnostic selection tools, test must satisfy certain basic
requirements:
Reliability: Test scores should not vary widely under repeated conditions. If a test isadministered to the same individual repeatedly, he should get approximately identical
score. Reliability is the confidence that an indicator will measure the same thing every
time.
Validity: Validity is the extent to which an instrument measures what it intends to
measure. In a typing test validity measures a typists speed and accuracy. To determine
whether it really measures the speed and accuracy of a typist is to demonstrate its
validity. The question if determining the validity of a selection test, thus, has lotto does
with later performance on the job.
Qualified People: Test require a high level of professional skills in their
administration and interpretation. Professional technicians are needed for skilled
judgmental interpretations of test scores.
Preparation: A test should be well prepared. It should be easy to understand and
simple to administer.
Suitability:a test must fit the nature of the group on which it is applied. A written test
comprising difficult words would be fruitless when it is administered on less educated
workers.
37
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
38/67
Usefulness: Exclusive reliance on any single test should be avoided, since the results in
such a case are likely to be criticized. To be useful, it is always better to use a battery of
test.
Standardization: Norms for finalizing test scores should be established. There must be
prescribed methods and procedures for administering the test and for scoring or
interpreting it.
Selection Practices: The following throws light on how the global giants use selection
testing as a basis for picking up the right candidates to fill up the vacancies arising internally:
1. Siemens India: It uses extensive psychometric instruments to evaluate short-listed
candidates. The company uses occupational personality questionnaire to understand the
candidates personal attributes and occupational testing to measure competencies.
2. LG Electronics India: LG Electronics uses 3 psychometric tests to measure a persons
ability as a team player, to check personality types and to find a persons responsiveness and
assertiveness.
3. Arthur Anderson: While evaluating candidates, the company conducts critical behavior
interviewing which evaluates the suitability of the candidate for the position, largely based on hispast experience and credentials
4. PepsiCo India: The Company uses India as a global recruitment resource. To select
professionals for global careers with it, the company uses a competency- based interviewing
technique that looks at the candidates abilities in terms of strategizing, lateral thinking, problem
solving, managing the environment. This part, Pepsi insists that to succeed in a global posting;
these individuals possess strong functional knowledge and come from a cosmopolitan
background.

5) Selection Interview:
Interview is the oral examination of candidates for employment. This is the most essential step in
the selection process. In this step the interviewer matches the information obtained about the
candidates through various means to the job requirements and to the information obtained
through his own observations during the interview. Interview gives the recruiter an opportunity
To size up the candidate personally.
To ask question that are not covered in the tests.
To make judgments on candidates enthusiasm and intelligence.
To assess subjective aspects of the candidate facial expressions, appearance,
nervousness and so forth.
To give facts to the candidates regarding the company, its policies, etc. and promote
goodwill towards the company.
Types of interviews:
Several types of interviews are commonly used depending on the nature and importance of the
position to be filled within an organization. In a
1) NON-DIRECTIVE INTERVIEW
The recruiter asks questions as they come to mind. There is no specific format to be followed.
2)PATTERNED INTERVIEW
The employer follows a pre-determined sequence of questions. Here the interviewee is given a
special form containing questions regarding his technical competence, personality traits,
attitudes, motivation, etching a
3) STRUCTURED OR SITUATIONAL INTERVIEW
There are fixed job related questions that are presented to each applicant. In a
4) PANEL INTERVIEW
Several interviewers question and seek answers from one applicant. The panel members can ask
new and incisive questions based on their expertise and experience and elicit deeper and more
meaningful expertise from candidates. Interviews can also be designed to create a difficult
environment where the applicants confidence level and the ability to stand erect in difficult
situations are put to test. These are referred to as the
39
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
40/67
5) STRESS INTERVIEW
This is basically an interview in which the applicant is made uncomfortable by a series of, often,
rude, annoying or embarrassing questions .In the final category, there is the
6) APPRAISAL INTERVIEWWhere superior and subordinate sit together after the performance appraisal to discuss the
subordinates rating and possible remedial actions.
Steps in interview process:
Interview is an art. It demands a positive frame of mind on part of the interviewers. Interviewers
must be treated properly so as to leave a good impression about the company in their minds. HR
experts have identified certain steps to be followed while conducting interviews:
PREPARATION:
Establishing the objective of the interview Receiving the candidates application and rsum
Keeping tests score ready, along with interview assessment forms Selecting the interview
method to be followed Choosing the panel of experts who would interview the candidates
Identifying proper room for environment
RECEPTION:
The candidate should be properly received and led into the interview room. Start the interview on
time.
INFORMATION EXCHANGE:
State the purpose of the interview, how the qualifications are going to be matched with skills
needed to handle the job. Begin with open ended questions where the candidate gets enough
freedom to express himself. Focus on the applicants education, training, work experience, etc.
Find unexplained gaps in applicants past work or college record and elicit facts that are not
mentioned in the resume.
EVALUATION:
Evaluation is done on basis of answers and justification given by the applicant in the interview.
6) PHYSICAL EXAMINATION:
After the selection decision and before the job offer is made, the candidate is required to undergo
a physical fitness test. A job offer is often contingent upon the candidate being declared fit after
the physical examination. Medical examination: Certain jobs require physical qualities like clear
40
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
41/67
vision, perfect hearing, unusual stamina, tolerance of hard working conditions, clear tone, etc.
Medical examination reveals whether or not a candidate possesses these qualities.
7) REFERENCE CHECKS
Once the interview and medical examination of the candidate is over, the personnel department
will engage in checking references. Candidates are required to give the names of 2 or 3
references in their application forms. These references may be from the individuals who are
familiar with the candidates academic achievements or from the applicants previous employer,
who is well versed with the applicants job performance and sometimes from the co-workers. In
case the reference check is from the previous employer, information in the following areas may
be obtained. They are job title, job description, period of employment, pay and allowances, gross
emoluments, benefits provided, rate of absence, willingness of previous employer to employ thecandidate again, etc. Further, information regarding candidates regularity at work, character,
progress, etc. can be obtained. Often a telephone call is much quicker. The method of mail query
provides detailed information about the candidates performance, character and behavior.
However, a personal visit is superior to the mail or telephone methods and is used where it is
highly essential to get detailed, first hand information which can also be secured by observation.
Reference checks are taken as a matter of routine and treated casually or omitted entirely in
many organizations. But a good reference check, when used sincerely, will fetch useful and
reliable information to the organization taking the final decision, the organization has to intimate
this decision to the successful as well as unsuccessful candidates. The organization sends the
appointment order to the successful candidates either immediately or after sometime depending
upon its time schedule.
8) HIRING DECISION:
The line manager has to make the final decision now. Whether to select or reject a candidate
after soliciting the required information through different techniques discussed earlier. The line
managers has to take adequate care in taking the final decision because of economic behavioral
and social implications of the selection decision. A careless decision of rejecting a candidates
would impair the moral of people and they suspect the selection procedure and the very basic of
selection in a particular organization. A true understanding between the line managers and
41
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
42/67
personal managers should be established so as to facilitate good selection decision; the
organization has to intimate this decision to the successful candidates. The organization sends the
appointment order to successful candidate either immediately or after some time depending upon
its time schedule.
Interviewing Mistakes:
Favors applicants who share his own attitudes.
not be asking right questions and hence not getting relevant responses.
Resort to snap judgments, making a decision as to the applicants suitability in the first
few minutes of the interview. Too often interviewers form on early impression and spend
the balance of interview looking for evidence to support it.
May have been influenced by cultural noise. To get the job, the applicants try to get by
the interviewer. If they reveal wrong things about themselves, they may not get the job,
so they try to give the interviewer responses that are socially acceptable, but not very
revealing. These types of responses are known as cultural noise responses the applicant
believes are socially acceptable rather than facts.
May have allowed him to be unduly influenced by associating a particular personality
trait with a persons origin or cultural background and that kind of
stereotyping/generalizing ultimately determining the score of a candidate. For example,
he may feel that candidate from Bihar may find it difficult to read, write and speak
English language and hence not select them at all.
May conclude that a poorly dressed candidate is not intelligent, attractive females are
good for public dealings, etc. This is known as Halo Effect where a single important
trait of a candidate affects the judgment of the rather. The halo effect is present if an
interviewer allows candidates accomplishments in athletics overshadow other aspects
and leads the interviewer to like the applicant because athletes make good sales people.
Have been influenced more by unfavorable than favorable information about or from the
candidate. Unfavorable information is given roughly twice the weight of favorable
42
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
43/67
information. According to Do Meyer andante, a single negative characteristic may bar an
individual from being accepted, while no amount of positive features will guarantee
candidates acceptance.
Have been under pressure to hire candidates at short notice.
Have been influenced by the behavior of the candidates (how he has answered, his body
language), his or her dress (especially in case of female candidates) and other physical
factors that are not job related.
BARRIERS TO EFFECTIVE SELECTION: The main objective of selection is to
hire people having competence and commitment. This objective is often defeated because of
certain barriers. The impediments which check effectiveness of selection are perception, fairness,validity, reliability, and pressure.
PERCEPTION: Our inability to understand others accurately is probably the most
fundamental barrier to selecting right candidate. Selection demands an individual or a group to
assess and compare the respective competencies of others, with the aim of choosing the right
persons for the jobs. But our views are highly personalized. We all perceive the world
differently. Our limited perceptual ability is obviously a stumbling block to the objective and
rational selection of people.
FAIRNESS:Fairness in selection requires that no individual should be discriminated against
on the basis of religion, region, race or gender. But the low number of women and other less
privileged sections of society in the middle and senior management positions and open
discrimination on the basis of age in job advertisements and in the selection process would
suggest that all the efforts to minimize inequity have not been very effective.
VALIDITY:Validity, as explained earlier, is a test that helps predict job performance of anincumbent. A test that has been validated can differentiate between the employees who can
perform well and those who will not. However, a validated test does not predict job success
accurately. It can only increase possibility of success.
43
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
44/67
RELIABILITY: A reliable method is one which will produce consistent results when
repeated in similar situations. Like a validated test, a reliable test may fall to predict job
performance with precision. PRESSURE: Pressure is brought on the selectors by politicians,
bureaucrats, relatives, friends, and peers to select particular candidate. Candidates selected
because of compulsions are obviously not the right ones. Appointments to public sector
undertakings generally take place under such pressure.
QUESTION:
Who should be hired and why?

REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Recruitment is the discovery of potential applicants for actual or anticipated organizational
vacancies. It is the linking activity bringing people together those with jobs and those without
jobs.
Recruitment is the process to discover the sources of man power to meet the requirement of the
staffing schedule and to employ effective measures for attracting that manpower to meet job
requirement and job satisfactions.
By dale Yoder
Recruitment is both negative and positive activity. It is the process of searching for prospective
employees and stimulating and encouraging them to apply for jobs in an organization. It is
positive as its stimulates people to apply for job selection tends to be negative as it rejects
people who are not suitable.
- By flippo
The supply of skills has generally been seen as central, with the process of its absorption into
employment with in organizations. The silence of policy debates on the topic is mirrored by the
world of research.
For example, in
ROUNER AND MACLEANS (2008) massive overview of technical and vocational education
and training research, the index contains not a single reference to either recruitment or selection
with in the research literature recruitment and selection activity is predominantly deal with in
two fields.
Generally perspective human resource management (HRM) or personnel management
viewpoint (see, for example, TAYLOR AND COLLINS;2000 );and
A very technical psychology literature that focuses on the validity (absolute and relative) of
different forms of recruitment techniques, such as competency modeling interview and various
types of psychometric testing. For example,
46
7/29/2019 Project Recruitment
47/67
Hunter and hunter, 1984;
Barrack and mount, 1991;
Rynes etal, 2000;
Shipman etal, 2000; and
Lievens etal, 2002;
To lesser extent, R & S is also addressed in fields of economics (in term of the labour market), &
education and training (usually in terms of the impact that qualifications have with in the R & S
process). In many instances in so far as it is thought about at all, it is normally treated. As a
relatively simple,
Mechanistic matching process and the problems associated with it as being largely technical in
nature.
It is also worth pointing out that much of the research that is drowns upon in discussing R & S
does not have recruitment as it prime focus, but simply deals with some limited aspect of the
topic.
For example: there is a considerable body of work in the UK that over time has probed
employers happiness and /or satisfaction with the outputs of the education and training system.
For example, reed, 1981; industry in education, 1996; Sims, 1989; and Johnson and
burden, 2003 while a parallel strand has tried to get to grips with employers perceptions of and
responses to different types of qualifications (for some early examples, see reed, 1980;Williams,
1981; Sims 1989; BT, 1993; and for a more recent example, sec roc etal, 2006) and, in some
cases, their usage with in organization R & S activity ( for example, LSC,2008; shury
etal,2008).in the main, however, the focus of this work has generally been quite narrow and has
often failed to locate the use of qualification as part of the R & S process with in any wider frame
work that might link this aspect of r & s with wider issues concerning why and how employers
have specified their skill acquisition needs in the way they have, and how these choices then
impact on and inter-relate with the employment of R & S techniques and source of labors. They
also often fail to pay much regard to how qualification usage relates to employers
conceptualization of the skill that

They are trying to hire. More over, the bulk of both these stands of research are based on survey
data that offers a description of a particular pattern of employer behavior, but can provide only
limited explanation for why it occurs as it does.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Research methodology is way to systematically solve the research problem. Methodology makes
the most important contribution towards enrichment of the study. In a research there arenumerous methods and procedures to be applied but it is the nature of the problem that determine
the level of and type of research methodology.
One of the most important uses of research methodology is that it helps in identifying the
problem, collecting, analyzing the required information data and critical ones. The present study
falls under the domain of analytical research studies.
DATA SOURCES:-
Research is totally based on primary data and secondary data.. The primary data has been
collected by interacting with various people with help of interviews and questionnaires. The
secondary data has been collected through various journals and websites.
This report is based on primary as well as secondary data, however primary data collection was
given more importance since it is based on the recruitment and selection experience of the
company
PRIMARY DATA:-
Primary data is the data which is collected by the researcher directly from his own observation
and experiences. In this project questioner method is adopeted for primary data collection by
interacting with various respondents, asking for their opinion, attitudes and fill questionnaire
from the respondents side.
SECONDARY DATA:-
Secondary data is data collected by someone other than the user. Common sources of secondarydata for social science include censuses, surveys and organizational records. To avoid
duplicating efforts, running up unnecessary costs and tiring the informants, it is recommended
wherever possible to rely on existing information (secondary data) such as: company site and
organization site and some through reference of experts in recruitment and selection.

SAMPLING:-
Sampling is that part of statistical practice concerned with the selection of individual observation
intended to yield some knowledge about a population of concern, especially for the purpose of
statistical inference.
SAMPLING PROCEDURE:-
The sample was selected from the industrial outlets and also collected through personal visits to
persons, by formal and informal talks and through filling up the questionnaire prepared. The data
has been analyzed by using mathematical\ statistical tool.
SAMPLE SIZE:-
Sample size of my project is limited to 56 people only.
