 Executive Summary

The objective of the study is to analyze the actual recruitment process in

BHEL and to evaluate how far this process confirm to the purposes

underlying the operational aspects of the industry. How far the process is

accepted by it? The study on recruitment highlights the need of recruitment in

BHEL.

Human resource is a most valuable asset in the Organization. Profitability of the

Organization depends on its utilization. If their utilization is done properly

Organization will make profit otherwise it will make loss. If a good

dancer appointed as a Chief Executive Officer of a Company, he may not

run the business. So right man should be procured at right place in right

time, otherwise their proper utilization may not be done. To procure right

man at right place in right time, some information regarding job and job

doer is highly essential. These information are obtained through Job

Analysis, Job Descriptions, Job Specifications. BHEL procure manpower in

a very scientific manner . It gets information by use of these important

documents like Job Analysis, Job Descriptions and Job Specifications.

Without these recruitment may be unsuccessful.

In BHEL the recruitment policy spells out the objective and provides a

framework for implementation of the recruitment programme in the form

of procedures. The company involves a commitment to broad principles

such as filling vacancies with best qualified individuals.

The recruitment policy in a company may embrace spell issue such as the

extent of promotion from within, attitudes of enterprise in recruiting old,

handicapped and minor individuals, minority group members, parttime

employees and relatives of present employees.

In a company BHEL, there usually a staff unit attached with personnel or

an industrial relations department designated as employment or recruitment

office. This specialization Of recruitment enables staff personnel to

become highly skilled in recruitment techniques and their evaluation.

However, recruitment remains the line responsibility as far as the

personnel requisition forms are originated by the personnel, who has the

final words in the acceptance or rejection of a particular applicant. Despite

this the staff personnel have adequate freedom in respect of sources of

manpower to be tapped and the procedure to be followed for this purpose.

highlights on achieving a surely where all citizens (employees) can lead a

richer and fuller life. Every organisation, therefore, strikes for greater

productivity, elimination of wastes, lower costs and higher wages, so the

industry needs a stable and energetic labours force that can boast of

production by increased productivity. To achieve these objectives a good

recruitment & selection process is essential. By which industry strikes right

number of persons and right kind of persons at the right time and at

right places through and the planning period without hampering

productivity.

DEFINATION

Recruitment is the process seeking out and attempting to attract individuals in

external labor markets, who are capable of and interested in filling available job

Vacancies .Recruitment is an intermediate activity whose primary function is to

serve as a link between human resource planning on the one hand and selection

on the other.

To Recruit Means To Enlist, Replenish Or Reinforce.

Recruitment begins by specifying the human resource requirements, initiating

activities and actions to identify the possible sources from where they can be

met, communicating the information about the jobs, term and conditions, and

prospectus they offer, and enthusiast people who meet the requirement to

respond to the initiation by applying for the jobs.

AIM
The aim of recruitment is the information obtained from job description and job

specification along with precise staffing standards from the basis for determinig

manpower requirement to attain the organizational objective.

Recruitment Needs Are Of Three Types:

1 Planned, anticipated and unexpected planned need arise from changes, in

organization and retirement policy.

2 Resignations, deaths and accidents and illness give rise to unexpected

needs.

3 Anticipated needs refer to those movements in personnel which an

organization can predict by studying trends in the internal and external

requirements.

Features Of Recruitment:

1 Process or series of activities rather than a single act or event.

2 A linking activity as it brings together those with the jobs(employer) and

those seeking jobs(prospective employees).

INTERNAL SOURCE OF RECRUITMENT

Internal Transfer/Promotion with necessary screening, training and selection

to meet the specified requirement. It would be desirable to utilize the

internal sources before going outside to attract the candidates. The two

categories of internal sources including a review of the present employees

and nomination of the candidates by employees.

Merits and Demerits of Internal Recruitment.

Merits.

Following are the merits of the internal source of recruitment;

1. Increase in Morale

Recruitment through the internal sources, particularly promotion,

increases the morale of the employee. Every body in the organization know that

they can be promoted to a higher post, their morale will be boosted and their

work efficiency will increase.

2. Better Selection

The people working in the enterprise are known by the management and for

selection higher post does not carry any risk as the employees are known.

3. Economical Internal

Internal sources is highly economical because no expenditure is involved in

locating the source of recruitment and no time is wasted in the long process of

selection. More over, these employees do not need extensive training because

they already know about all the works of the enterprise.

4. Labor- turnover is Reduced

When the employees know that they can be promoted to higher posts, they do

not leave the enterprise. As a result of this policy labour turnover is reduced and

the status of the company increases.

5. Better Labour-Management Relation

When the internal source of recruitment is used the employees remains satisfied

which leads to the establishment of better labour-management relationship.

Demerits

The internal source of recruitment of employees suffer from the following

demerits:

1. Check on Young Blood

The defect of the internal source of recruitment is that the young people fully

equipped with the modern technical knowledge remain excluded

from the entry in enterprise. As a result, the old people run the enterprise with the

old ideas and experience.

2.Limited choice.

The internal recruitment of the employees reduces the area of choice. The

reduction in the area of choice means less number of applicants. The choice is to

be made out of people working in the enterprise.

3.Encourages Favoritism.

Internal source encourages favoritism in this system, the superiors usually select

their favorites. Sometimes even a less capable person is selected which harms the

enterprise. In this system , generally the personal impression of the managers

about the employee is given preference for selection.

EXTERNAL SOURCES OF RECRUITMENT

An external source of Recruitment is considered from the combination of

consultant and Advertisement

Merits and Demerits of External Recruitment

Merits.

The external recruitment has the following merits:

1.Entry of young blood.

Recruitment through external source brings in new persons with modern ideas

which can be profitable for the organization.

2.Wide choice.

The use of external source of recruitment increases the number of candidates and

widen the choice. The managers judge the capabilities of the applicants and

select the best ones for appointment.

3.Less Chances of Favouritism.

All the candidates, under this system of recruitment, are new for the managers

and this exclude the possibility of favouratism.

Demerits.
In spite of many merits, the system of recruitment from external sources is not

free from defects. Its chief demerits are:

1.Decrease in Morale of Existing Employees.

By adopting the system of external recruitment the chances of promotion of the

present employees come to an end. Since there is no hope of any promotion the

morale of the employee decreases and they do not perform their work with

dedication.

2.Chances of Wrong Selection.

There are chances of wrong selection due to non-availability of information in

case of external recruitment. If the wrong selection will upset the working

condition of the organization.

3.Costly Source.

The external source of recruitment involves expensive advertisement, long

selection process and training after selection which increases organizational

expenditure.

4.Increase in Labour-turnover.

When the employees know that they cannot be appointed on high posts in the

enterprise, they leave the organization at the first available opportunity, and as a

result an increase in the labour-turnover which lowers the prestige or the

reputation of the enterprise.

5.Detorioration in Labour-Management Relationship.

Making use of the external source of recruitment affects the present employees

and there is an increase in the incidents of strikes and lock-out.

LEGAL & POLITICAL

The recruitment process consist of the following steps:

• Generally begins when the personnel department receives requisitions for

recruitment from any department of the company the personnel

requisitions contains detail about the positions to be filled. number of

persons to be recruited, required from the candidate, terms and conditions

of employment and at the time by which the persons should be available

appointment etc.

• Locating and developing the sources of required number and type of

employees.

• Identifying the prospective employees with required characteristics.

• Communicating the information about the organization, the job and the

terms and conditions of service.

 CONCEPTUAL FRAME WORK OF

RECRUITMENT PROCESS

Human resource Management classically pertains to planning; recruitment,

selection, placement, induction, compensation, maintenance, development,

welfare etc. of Human Resources of any organisation to enable the organization

to meet its objective while also enabling the human resources to attain their

individual goals.

As is evident from the definition of the concept the entire theme revolves

centrally around human resource and its role in enabling simultaneous

satisfaction of individual and organizational goals.

The immediate conclusion that follows from this is that the prime movers of the

organisation are the individuals. The process of bringing employees into the

folds of organisation is termed as recruitment and can be unambiguously treated

as the central pillar for foundation stone of the entire concept of human resource

management.

It is easy to see why recruitment has accorded such a high position out of the

various facets of human resource management. The reason is simply that unless

one has human resource in the organisation whom will the human resource

managers manage or whose energy will they channalise productively and

usefully.

Keeping this idea into mind this Projects is an attempt to study various options

that are available both theoretically as well as practically for an organisation to

launch itself into the task of recruitment.

METHODS AND TECHNIQUES OF

RECRUITMENT

In a company recruitment sources indicates where human resources may be

procured, the recruitment methods and techniques deal with how these resources

should be tapped. As soon as the manpower manager has determined the

personal qualities required on the part of an individual to fill an vacant position

and visualized the possible sources of candidates with these qualities, his next

step relates to making contact with such candidates. There are commonly three

methods of recruitment which company follows:

1.DIRECT METHOD

2. INDIRECT METHOD

3.THIRD PARTY METHOD

The BHEL has the following way which it follows for

recruiting the person

A.PURPOSE

The purpose of the company is to define the procedure of Recruitment &

Selection in the company.

B.SCOPE

The scope of the company is to find the individuals seeking employment

in the company.

C.RESPONSIBILITY

The Responsibility is on the Manager-HRD/Operations Director-EAI

Systems/Operation Director-TPB-India.

D.AUTHORITY

The Authority in the company is commenstrate with responsibility

E.PROCEDURE STEPS

1.MAN POWER RECRUITMENT

• As and when the need arises , the Manpower Requirement Form is

dually filled by the HOD/Group Manager of the concerned department

and forwarded to the HRD Department.

• The HRD Department initiates activity on the recruitment once the

"Manpower Requirement" form is approved by MD.

• All "Manpower Requirement "Forms are maintained by the HRD

Department.

2.IDENTIFYING SOURCES OF RECRUITMENT

On the basis of Manpower Requirement Form a recruitment source is

identified. The source of recruitment could be external or internal.

INTERNAL SOURCE OF RECRUITMENT

• Internal Transfer/Promotion with necessary screening, training and

selection to meet the specified requirement. It would be desirable to

utilize the internal sources before going outside to attract the candidates.
 The two categories of internal sources including a review of the

present employees and nomination of the candidates by employees.

The COMPANY suggests that the effective utilization of internal sources

necessitates an understanding of their skills and information regarding

relationships of jobs. This will provide possibilities for horizontal and

vertical transfers within the enterprise eliminating simultaneous attempts to

lay off employees in one department and recruitment of employees with

similar qualification for another department in the company. Promotions

and Transfers within the plant where an employee is best suitable improves

the morale along with solving recruitment problems.

These measures can be taken effectively if we established job families

through job analysis programmes combining together similar jobs

demanding similar employee characteristics. Again, employee can be

requested to suggest promising candidates. Sometimes in a company the

employees are given prizes for recommending a candidate who has been

recruited. The usefulness of this system in the form of loyalty and its

wide practice, it has been pointed that it gives rise to cliques posing

difficulty to management.

Therefore, in this company before utilizing the system attempts should be

made to determine through research whether or not employees thus

recruited are effective on particular jobs. Usually, internal sources can be

used effectively if the number of vacancies are not very large, adequate,

employee records are maintained, jobs do not demand originality lacking in the

internal sources, and employees have prepared themselves for promotion.

EXTERNA L SOURCE S OF RECRUITMENT

An external source of Recruitment is considered from the combination of

the following options:

CONSULTANT

Consultant are given the requirement specifying qualifications, experience

and all other necessary details. In consultant we considers the employment

agencies, educational and technical institute, casual, labor and mail

applicants, trade unions and other sources. Our company have developed

markedly in large cities in the form of consultancy services.

Usually this company facilitate recruitment of technical and professional

personnel. Because of their specialization, they effectively assess the needs

of their clients and aptitude and skills of the specialized personnel. They

do not merely bring an employer and an employee together but

computerize lists of available talents, utilizing testing to classify and used

advance techniques of vocational guidance for effective placement

purposes.

Educational and technical institutes also forms an effective source of

manpower supply. There is an increasing emphasis on recruiting students

from different management institutes and universities' commerce and

management departments by recruiters for positions in sales, accounting,

finance, personnel and production. These students are recruited as

management trainees and then placed in special company training

programmes. They are not recruited for particular positions but for

development as future supervisors and executive.

Indeed , this source provides a constant flow of new personnel with

leadership personalities. Vocational schools and industrial training institutes

provides specialized employees, apprentices, and trainees for semiskilled

and skilled jobs. Persons trained in these schools and institutes can be

placed on operative and similar jobs with a minimum of in plant training.

However, recruitment of these candidates must be based on realistic and

differential standards established through research reducing turnover and

enhancing productivity.

The enterprise depends to some extent upon casual labour or "applicant at

the gate" and mail applicants. The candidates may appear personally at

the company's employment office or send their applications for possible

vacancies. According to company the quality and quantity of such

candidates depend on the image of the company in community.

Prompt response to these applicants proves very useful for the company.

The company find that this source is uncertain, and applicants reveal a

wide range of abilities necessitating a careful screening. Despite these

limitations, it forms a highly inexpensive source as the candidates

themselves come to the gate of the company. It also provides measures for

a good public relations and accordingly , the candidates visiting the

company must be received cordially.

Trade unions are playing an increasingly important role in labour supply.

In several trades, they supply skilled labour in sufficient numbers. They

also determine the order in which employees are to be recruited in the

organization. In industries where they do not take active part in

recruitment, they make it a point the employees laid off are given

preference in recruitment.

ADVERTISEMENT

• All recruitment advertisements are placed centrally by the HRD

Department.

• The advertisement is drafted by HRD Department in consultation with

the concerned Department.

• All related documents of Advertisements released are maintained in the

"Advertisement" file.

In addition to the above sources, several organizations develop sources

through voluntary organizations such as clubs, attracts employees of

competitors looking for a change or good prospectus for employment,

utilize women, older workers and physically handicapped for specific

positions where they are best suitable, and use the "situation wanted"

advertisement in newspapers.

From the chart it can be understood that most of the employees are inspired by the

can also see that matters much followed reputation of the company and salary package

which comprised 11% and 16% respectively. Job prospect plays a minor role in the minds

of a candidate who had already joined the company. Location of the company (which

comprised 5% of the sample size) where majority of the employees are qualified with

I tried to find out the most reliable type of interview according the employee.

They expressed different view. According to the sample employees.

I found that behavioral interview is most reliable and this view was supported by

36% of the sample employees. Similar support was begged by the situational
interview, while 26% structured interview and only 7% favoured stress interview.

Corresponding to this data I have drawn a pie chart above: -

In BHEL all the applications received in each branch/function (HR or Finance)

will be separately arranged in descending order of merit i.e. based on a

percentage of aggregate marks of all the years/ semesters of professional

course and only the required number (according to the ratios mentioned)

starting from the top will be called for written test in each discipline of

Engineering/Function (HR or Finance). In case of a tie at cut-off marks, all the

candidates scoring cut-off marks will be called for written test. The Written

Test papers will be objective type in nature and will be in Hindi & English.

Based on merit and requirement, the short-listed candidates will have to

appear for Psychometric Test and/or Behavioral Assessment Interview followed

by Personal Interview. Candidates will be invited for Psychometric Test and/or

Behavioral Assessment Interview followed by personal interview, in order of

merit on the basis of Written Test performance. In case of a tie at cut-off

marks, all the candidates scoring cut-off marks will be called for interview.

The candidates are advised to ensure while applying that they fulfill the

eligibility criteria and other requirements mentioned in this advertisement and

that the particulars furnished by them are correct in all respects. In case it

is detected at any stage of recruitment process that the candidate does not

fulfill the eligibility criteria and/or does not comply with other requirements of

this advertisement and/ or he/she has furnished any incorrect/ false information

or has suppressed any material fact(s), his/her candidature is liable to be

rejected. If any of the above shortcomings is/are detected, even after

appointment, his/her services are liable to be terminated without any no.

Advertisement Walk-ins Variable Search Firms

The employees at BHEL expressed their varied views about the best way,

according to them, to recruit people. The employees in BHEL bear an opinion

(about 40% of the sample) that advertisement is the best way to recruit people.

While to 25% of the sample employees feel that walk-ins is best way while 20%

feel that variable ways are the best. Others feel that recruiting people from search

firms in a best way. Corresponding to this data I have drawn a pie chart above:

The aim of advertising is to make people aware that a vacancy exists and to

persuade them to apply for the position. Advertising helps to define exactly the

need of the company, and what separates it from its competitors. Often the people

you want to attract are not openly looking for a new job, so you need to think of

ways to sell the attributes of the company, e.g. what makes It unique, its culture,

values, philosophy and so on.

Good advertising highlights the assets of the position and appeals to the career

needs and concerns of the desired applicants. It is worth making your

advertisement effective and attractive, as there is a high correlation between

advertisements with accurate and complete information and recruitment success.

My survey clearly concludes that response of the company to any query made by the

employees was absolutely good since 94% of my survey favors to this. 6% ratio of

unsatisfied can also be further reduced if communication system is further improved.

Corresponding to this data I have drawn a pie chart

I hereby submit my suggestion that every query by any employee should be seriously

considered and it should be dealt in depth and if at any particular time of query if proper

reply/material is not available, even than the answer must be given at a later stage after

getting full information from the source available .

HOW CANDIDATES ARE RECRUITED IN THE

From the chart it is quiet clear that the company adopts various processes for recruiting

the right candidate. Actual recruitment procedure followed by the company is by

conducting written examination followed by interview which comprised 85% of my

sample survey of 36 employees. But still some candidates are also chosen through written

exam, GD& interview comprising only 6% and others comprising only 3%. These

‘others’ include the reference of the existing employees within the organization itself.

Eligible candidates will be invited for objective type written test at their own

expense. In Other words all the applications received in each branch/function (HR

or Finance) will be separately arranged in descending order of merit i.e. based on a

percentage of aggregate marks of all the years/ semesters of professional course

and only the required number (according to the ratios mentioned) starting from the

top will be called for written test in each discipline of Engineering/Function (HR or

Finance). In case of a tie at cut-off marks, all the candidates scoring cut-off marks

will be called for written test. The Written Test papers will be objective type in

nature and will be in Hindi & English.

WRITTEN TEST CENTRES

The Written Test will be conducted at following 12 centers:

1. Bhopal 2. Chennai 3. Delhi 4. Hyderabad 5. Kolkata 6. Mumbai 7. Silchar

8. Varanasi 9.Bangalore 10.Tiruchy 11.Haridwar12.Nagpur Candidates have to

shown in the following chart: -

From the chart above it crystal clear that the candidates get exactly the same job as

specified. So from the company’s perspective it is a good sign for the overall growth &

development. Still some employees who comprised only 2.33% of my sample study.

is excellent.

Corresponding to this data I have drawn a pie chart

From the chart it is crystal clear that the attitude & working of H.R. Manager is whole

heartedly accepted to all the employees of the company. This will definitely boost the

morale of the employees, which ultimately will increase efficiency, & working of the

employees resulting in better growth of the company. Thus by every means company is

profitable. Moreover such behavior of H.R. Manager can become the ideal of their

colleagues & subordinates.

According to the sample ,the primary source of recruiting people is Managerial.

However, Testing & Recruiters Themselves source are the second most favored source of

Recruiting people. Whenever the process of Recruitment is to be carried out. Managerial

source of Recruiting people should be heavily considered.

Advertisement in publications and recruitment booklets and information sheets for

applicants were found to be the most frequently and the least frequently used method of

managerial recruitment.

Newspaper advertisement was found to be the most preferred technique, while

advertisement in the technical and professional journals was the least preferred technique

for managerial recruitment in BHEL.

The above chart depicts that the Application Blank of the company was up to the marks

is very thoroughly covered and it also acts as a ready reckner for the company. All the

information is gathered and define each and every thing very clearly about candidate who

are applying for the job .

FINDINGS
1. Under recruitment Procedures Requisition System is incorrect because the

replacement does not require fresh approval, unless it is in place of termination.

2. The data banks are not properly maintained.

3. The dead bio-data are never being destroyed.

4. Proper induction is not given to all the employees. It reserves to only a few levels.

5. Salary comparison is not justifies. Old employees are demoralized by getting less

surely then new employee.

6. Salary fixation has a halo effect .

7. Recruitment procedure is not fully computerized.

8. Manpower’s are recruited from private placement consultancy, who are demanding

high amount of fees, where as HRD Department is not fully utilised to recruit

manpower by advertisement.

9. Before recruitment cost benefit analysis is not done properly. It causes manpower

surplus which makes loss in the industry.

10. Manpower is recruited from reliable source however efficiency does not recognise.
RECOMMENDATION

1.Fresh requisition requires approval and not replacement.

2.The dead CVs should be destroyed.

3.Each level of employee should be formally inducted and introduced to the

Departmental Head. If not all levels, at least Asst. Manager and above category of

employees.

4.Salary comparison should be seriously done to retain the old employees.

5.Proper salary structure to be structured to attract people and make it tax effective.

6.Cost benefit analysis should be alone before creating a position or recruitment of

manpower.

7.External source should be given equal importance with internal source. By which new

brain will be inducted in the company with skill, talent, efficiency etc.

8.Manpower planning should be followed before recruiting.

9.Proper enquiry should be done regarding previous employment of a candidate before

recruitment to avoid industrial disputes.

OPINION SURVEY:

Certain schemes yield more fruitful results in certain conditions and with some specific

objectives. Needless to say that management practices differ from organisation to

organisation. But the fact is that success does not follow automatically, the people who

implement the system that matters just as the authority without acceptance have no

meaning. Recruitment process without trust of employees and organisation has no value

however the objective may be ,so an attempt is made to study the attitude of those who

are participating in recruitment process before giving any suggesting and concluding

remarks. For this purpose research has taken opinion of 15 executives and 12

worker/employee of different departments/sections of the organisation. The questionnaire

prepared and circulated may them is reproduced below indicating their responses to each

question.

manpower?

A) By employing casual worker

b) By employing extra hours 90% Nil 10%

c) By lay off / retrenchment 90% Nil 10%

Nil 90% 10%

From the response indicated above it appears that the prevailing recruitment policy has

definite impact on the organisation. Most of the executives showed positive response to

different questionnaires by virtue of manpower planning they used proposed deletion of

manpower planning they used proposed deletion or addition of man in the organisation
for a planning period. The excess or shortage are being adjusted and hence misutilisation

is mere chance. The executives did not respond to the lay off and retrenchment for

reduction in available human resources. Form the questionnaires it appears that the

managerial staff are only interested for filling of the vacancies of higher post from out of

the internal sources. This attitude will seize the professional approach of the organisation

and may not able to induct fresh brain. From the answers of most of the managers it is

observed that they want entry of new managers should be avoided and fresh recruitment

shall be limited up to only staff cadre and not above that. From the answers of most of the

executives it appears that cost benefit analysis is not properly followed by the

organization and job rotation also not followed properly in the organization which make

an employee all rounder in all respects. By which, in the absence of an employee the

work will not discontinue.

From the response to the above questionnaires it is clearly indicated that most of the

workmen are dissatisfied about the existing recruitment policy. They are not given

chance for their development. Their skill efficincies are not recognized by the company
 CONCLUSION

Studying the recruitment procedures of BHEL., analysing the respondents answers,

opinion survey and data analysis it came to conclusion that BHEL is a growing Company.

It has a separate personnel department which is entrusted with the task of carrying out its

various roles efficiently. The business of BHEL is carried on in a very scientific manner.

In the saturation point of business it need not waste the time to diversify into the another

business. Management understands the business game very well. At the time of

difficulty it takes necessary action to solve the problem. Now the personnel department of

BHEL is in infancy stage. It always try to modernize the department. It strongly believes

in manpower position of the organization because it knows in the absence of ‘M’ for man

all ‘Ms’ like money, material, machines, methods and motivation are failure. It always

tries to develop the human resources. In the absence of right man, material, money,

machines all things will not be properly utilized. So it always recruits manpower in a

scientific manner.

The Applicant Databank is A Central Repository of Applicant related information.

The Recruitment Process has different options- Direct and Through Requisition

Direct : The Candidate required for a vacant position in the organization is

Searched from the applicant Data Bank and given offer.

Through Requisitions : The Requisition Process(an official written demand) comprises

of Manpower Requisitions from the organization.

After Approval of the Requisitions the Applicants are short listed from the Applicant Data

Blank based on the position, Experience, skill set, Qualification as required from the

Requisition.

The Short Listed Applicants are then called for an evaluation process that is based on pre-

defined steps for the respective positions.

After clearing the evaluation process an offer letter is given to the selected applicants.

If the Applicant is rejected or on Hold during Evaluation process, the Applicant goes

back to the Applicant Data Bank with appropriate status.

In today's rapidly changing business environment, organizations have to respond

quickly to requirements for people. Hence, it is important to have a well-defined

recruitment policy in place, which can be executed effectively to get the best fits

for the vacant positions. Selecting the wrong candidate or rejecting the right

candidate could turn out to be costly mistakes for the organization. Selection is

one area where the interference of external factors is minimal. Hence the HR

department can use its discretion in framing its selection policy and using various

selection tools for the best results. These case lets discuss the importance of having

an effective recruitment and selection policy.

They discuss the importance of a good recruitment and selection process that

starts with gathering complete information about the applicant from his application

form and ends with inducting the candidate into the organization.
