 INTRODUCTION

Industry Overview- Telecom Industry

India is currently the worlds second-largest telecommunications market

and has registered strong growth in the past decade and half. The Indian

mobile economy is growing rapidly and will contribute substantially to

Indias gross domestic product (GDP), according to report prepared by

Global System for Mobile Association (GSMA) in collaboration with the

Boston Consulting Group (BCG).

The liberal and reformist policies of the Government of India have been

instrumental along with strong consumer demand in the rapid growth in

the Indian telecom sector.

3
The government has enabled easy market access to telecom equipment

and a fair and proactive regulatory framework that has ensured availability

of telecom services to consumer at affordable prices. The deregulation of

foreign direct investment (FDI) norms has made the sector one of the

fastest growing and a top five employment opportunity generator in the

country.

Industry Analysis:

Indian Telecom Industry has revolutionized over past decades. Since 1850

electric telegraph started for the first time in India between Calcutta

(Kolkata) and Diamond Harbor (Southern Suburbs of Kolkata). Then from

1920 telecom sector was drastically changed from cable wired telegraph to

wireless telegraph, radio telegraph, radio telephone, trunk dialing (system

allowed users to dial calls with operator assistance). After a decade this

scenario changed to digital microwave, optical fiber, satellite earth station,

and all major cities and town were linked to telephone. Earlier in 1975 DoT

(Department of Telecom) was responsible for telephone services in India. In

1990s telecom was opened for private sector as well and then in 1995 TRAI

(Telephone Regulatory Authority of India) was setup which reduced

government intervention in case of tariffs and policy making. In 2000

4
government corporatized DoT and renamed it as BSNL (Bharat Sanchar

Nigam Limited). After this for next 10 years many private telecom operators

came

in Indian telecom sector- Telenor, Docomo, Vodafone, Sistema, Sing Tel,

etc. invested in Indian as mobile operators. If we look for wireless

communication in 1995, pager was looked as device offering much mobility

in communication, were Motorola was the big player with approx. 80%

market share and other companies- Usha Martin Telecom, Mobilink,

Pagelink,etc.

Telecom subscriber base expands substantially-

India is currently the second-largest telecommunication market and

has the third highest number of internet users in the world.

Between FY 07-16 Indias telephone subscriber base expanded at a

Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 19.5 per cent to 1,022.61

million and tele-density to 80.98

In September 2015, total telephone subscription stood at 1,022.61

million, while tele-density was at 80.98 percent.

Wireless segment dominates the market-

Indias telephone subscriber base reached 1,022.61 million in

September, 2015

The wireless segment 97.46 % of total telephone subscriptions

dominates the market, while the wire-line segment accounts for the

rest.

Urban regions account for 58.58 % of telecom subscriptions, while

rural areas constitute the remaining.

7
Market Size

Driven by strong adoption of data consumption on handheld devices, the

total mobile services market revenue in India is expected to touch US$ 37

billion in 2017, registering a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 5.2

% between 2014 and 2017, according to research firm IDC.

According to a study by GSMA, smartphones are expected to account for

two out of every three mobile connections globally by 2020 making India

the fourth largest smartphone market. The broadband services user-base in

India is expected to grow to 250 million connections by 2017, according to

GSMA. International Data Corporation (IDC) predicts India to overtake US

as the second-largest smartphone market globally by 2017 and to maintain

high growth rate over the next few years as people switch to smartphones

and gradually upgrade to 4G.

8
In spite of only 5 % increase in mobile connections in 2015, overall

expenditure on mobile services in India is expected to increase to US $ 21.4

billion in 2015, led by 15 % growth in data services expenditure, as per

research firm Gartner. The Indian telecom sector is expected to generate

four million direct and indirect jobs over the next five years according to

estimates by Randstad India. The employment opportunities are expected

to be created due to combination of governments efforts to increase

penetration in rural areas and the rapid increase in smartphone sales and

rising internet usage.

Digitalization in India

By: IANS | Published: December 11, 2015 4:49 PM

The Indian economy, which is currently 50 percent digitized, is expected to

reach 100 percent by 2020, a top official said on Thursday,

The digital transformation is being fueled by rapid innovation in the

technology space, said National Cyber Security Coordinator GulshanRai at

the 3rd edition of the National CIO Summit organized by Confederation of

Indian Industry.

9
On the flip side, this transformation makes any country vulnerable to cyber

threats, he said. India ranks amongst the five top most countries for

malware penetration and security breaches.

Mobility, social networking, customer centricity and optimization of supply

chain are four key forces driving the digital transformation, said KPMG

director ArnabMitra.

Organizations need to build capabilities to walk through this

transformation, he said, adding successful digital transformation depend on

degree of simplicity from adoption perspective, the risks identified and a

proper mitigation plan needs to be in place.

Government Initiatives in Telecom Industry

The government has fast-tracked reforms in the telecom sector and

continues to be proactive in providing room for growth for telecom

companies. Some of the other major initiatives taken by the government

are as follows:

The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) has directed the

telecom companies or mobile operators to compensate the

10
 consumers in the event of dropped calls with a view to reduce the

increasing number of dropped calls.

With a view to encourage consolidation in the telecom sector, the

Government of India has approved the rules for spectrum trading

that will allow telecom companies to buy and sell rights to unused

spectrum among themselves. The Union Cabinet chaired by the

Prime Minister, Mr NarendraModi, gave its approval to the

guidelines on spectrum sharing, aimed to improve spectral efficiency

and quality of service, based on the recommendations of the

Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI).

The Central Governments several initiatives to promote

manufacturing in the country, such as Make in India campaign

appears to have had a positive impact on mobile handsets

manufacturing in the country. Companies like Samsung, Micromax

and Spice had been assembling handsets in the country already.

Xiaomi and Motorola, along with Lenovo have also started assembly

of smartphones in India. Firms like HTC, Asus and Gionee too have

shown interest in setting up a manufacturing base in the country.

The Government of India plans to roll out free high-speed WiFi in

2,500 cities and towns across the country over the next three years.

11
The program entails an investment of up to Rs 7,000 crore (US$ 1.06

billion) and will be implemented by state-owned Bharat Sanchar

Nigam Ltd (BSNL).

RECRUITMENT AND

SELECTION

32
 RECRUITMENT

All organizations are basically human organizations. They need people to

carry out the organizational mission, goals and objectives. Every

organization needs to recruit people .The recruitment policy should,

therefore, address itself to the key question; what are the

personnel/human resource requirement of the organization in terms of

number, skills, levels etc to meet present and future needs of production

and technical and other changes planned or anticipated in the next years.

Recruitment is the process of searching for prospective

employees and stimulating them to apply for jobs in the organization .To

recruit means to enlist, replenish or reinforce. It refers to the process of

bringing together prospective employees and employer with a view to

stimulate and encourage the former to apply for a job with the latter. The

primary purpose of recruitment and selection is to achieve one desired aim

i.e. picking the right person for the right jobs.

The recruitment process begins when an employee is to be transferred

or promoted to another post, notice of resignation or dismissal is given or

retirement is planned. The five keyways to develop top quality people:

Recruitment-getting the right people in the right job

33
 Developing people-through training & development.

Monitoring-to ensures long-term development and performance.

Developing Managers-ensuring that these key people are delivering

what the organization requires.

Managing for performance- techniques that ensure top quality

performance.

Factors Affecting Recruitment: -

In recruiting new employees management must consider the nature of

labor market, what sort of potential labor are available and how do look for

works.

The factor affecting can be summed up under the following heads:

Labor Market Boundaries:- The knowledge of the boundaries help

management in estimating the available supply of qualified

personnel form, which it might recruit. A labor market consists of a

geographical area in which the forces of demand and supply interact

and thus affect the price of labor.

34
 Available Skills:- Companies must locate the areas where they can

find employees who fit the jobs according to their skills.

Economic Condition: Economic conditions also affect recruitment.

Unemployment worker may swamp a new plan located in a

depressed labor market whereas a firm trying to establish it or to

expand in an area where a few qualified workers are out of wok has

quite a different recruitment problem.

Attractiveness of the Company: The attractiveness of the company

in terms of higher wages, clean work, better fringe benefits and rapid

promotions serves as influencing factor in recruitment.

Recruitment begins by specifying the human resource recruitment,

initiating activities and action to identify the possible sources form where

they can be met, communicating the information about the jobs, terms and

conditions and prospects they offer, and enthuse the people who meet the

recruitment to respond to the invitation by applying for jobs. Thereafter the

selection process begins. The process is as follows:

a) Decide on how many people you really need:

If everything is being done to improve performance and still there is a

gap between what the current performance is and the goals set, then

the best way is to recruit more people.

b) Analyzing the job:

Analyzing the job is the process of assembling and studying information

relating to all aspects of a particular post. Analysis is done to find

possible details about:

Purpose: Identify the aims and objectives of job and what the

employee is expected to achieve within department and company.

37
 Position: The job title, its position in the hierarchy and for whom it is

responsible ought to be recorded. A sample organization chart may

be useful for this purpose.

Main Duties: A list of key tasks may be written out; standards that

need to be reached and maintained must also be maintained.

Methods of recording, assessing and recording the key tasks must be

determined.

The work Environment: Study the physical and social environment in

which the work is out because the work environment influences the

quantity and quality of work.

c) Drafting a job description:

After job analysis is done, job description is made. Job description

describes the job. The job description decides upon the exact

knowledge, skill and experience needed to do the job.

Job description must be drafted around these heading:

Job title

Responsible to

Responsible for

Purpose of job

38
 Duties

Responsibility

Signature and date

d) Drawing of employee specification:

Employee specification is also known as job, person or personnel

specification. It lists the skills; knowledge and experiences required

doing the job successfully. Studying the description makes it. An

employee specification will help in deciding where to advertise what to

include in job advertisement to attach the right person. It is based upon:

Physical make-up

Attainment

Specific aptitude

Interest

Disposition

Circumstances

e) Evaluation future needs

For Evaluation future needs manpower is drafting. A manpower plan

evolves studying the make-up of present work force, assessing

39
 forthcoming changes and calculating future workforce, which is

required. Manpower planning helps in devising long-term recruitment

plans.

2.1

2.2 f) Finding sources of recruitment:

The human resource requirement can be met from internal or external

sources.

40
2.2.1.1.1.1.1.1.1 SOURCES OF RECRUITMENT

2.2.1.1.1.1.1.1.2 Internal Sources

These refer to persons already employed in the organization. Promoting persons

from lower levels may fill up vacancies at higher levels. Shortage of manpower in

one branch \ factory may be met by transferring surplus staff from another

branch \ factory. Promotion means shifting of an employee to higher post caring

greater salary, status and responsibility. On the other hand transfer refer to the

shifting an employee with salary, status and responsibility. Some time ex-

employee of the organization may be re-employed.

2.2.2 Advantages of Internal Sources:

1. Filling vacancies for higher job by promoting employees from with in the

organization helps to motivate and improved the morale of the employees.

This induces loyalty among them.

2. Internal requirement has to minimize labor turnover and absenteeism.

People wait for promotion and the work force is more satisfied.

3. Candidates working in organization do not require induction training. They

are already familiar with organization and with the people working in it.

41
2.2.3 Disadvantages of Internal Sources:

1. There may be inbreeding, as fresh talent from outside is not obtained.

Internal candidates may not be given a new outlook and fresh ideas to

business.

2. Unsuitable candidates may not be promoted to positions of higher

responsibility because the choice is limited.

3. The employees may become lethargic if they are sure of time bound

promotion. There may be infighting among those who aspires for

promotion with in the organization.

4. Internal recruitment cannot be complete method in itself. The enterprise

has to resort to external recruitment at some stage because all vacancies

cannot be filled from with in organization.

2.2.3.1.1 External Sources

It refers to recruitment of employees from outside the organization. External

sources provide wide choice of the required number of the employees having the

desired qualification. It also provides the people with new ideas and specialized

skills required to cope with new challenge and to ensure growth of the

organization. Internal competitors have to compete with the outsiders. However,

existing employees resent the policy of filling higher-level vacancies from

42
outsiders. Moreover it is time consuming and expensive to recruit peoples from

outside. Recruitment from the outside may create frustration among the existing

employees that aspires for promotions. There is no guarantee that the

organizations will attract sufficient number of suitable candidates.

2.2.4 Advantages of External Sources:

1. The entry of fresh talent in to the organization is encouraged. New

employees bring new ideas to the organization.

2. External sources provide wider sources of personnel to choose from.

3. Requisite type of personnel having the required qualifications, training

and skill are available from the external sources.

2.2.5 Disadvantages of External Sources:

1. The enterprise can make the best selection since selection is made from

among a large number of applicants.

2. There is a greater decoration in employer- employee relationship, resulting

in industrial strikes, unrest, and lockouts.

3. The personnels selected from outside may suffer from the danger of

adjustment to the new work environment.

43
METHODS OF RECRUITMENT

All methods of recruitment can be put into three categories:

a) Direct method

b) Indirect method

c) Third-party method

a) Direct Method:

These include the campus interview and keeping a live register of job seekers.

Usually under this method, information about jobs and profile of persons

available for jobs is exchanged and preliminary screening is done. The short

listed candidates are then subjected to the remainder of the selection process.

Some organization maintains live registers or record of applicants and refers to

them as and when the need arises.

2.2.5.1.1.1 b) Indirect Method:

They cover advertising in newspapers, on the radio, in trade and professional

journals, technical journals and brochures.

When qualified and experienced persons are not available through other

sources, advertising in newspapers and professional and technical journals in

44
 made. Whereas all types of advertisements can be made in newspapers and

magazines, only particular types of posts should be advertised in the

professional and technical journals.

A well thought-out and planned advertisement for appointments reduces the

possibility of unqualified people applying. If the advertisement is clear and to

the point, candidates can assess their abilities and suitability for the position

and only those who possess the requisite qualifications will apply.

c) Third Party Method:

Various agencies are used for recruitment under these methods. These include

commercial and private employment agencies, state agencies, and placement

offices of schools, colleges and professional associations, recruiting firms,

management consulting firms, indoctrination seminars for college professors,

friends and relatives.

2.2.5.1.1.2 Employment Agencies:

They are specializing in specific occupation like general office help, salesman,

technical workers, accountants, computer staff, engineers and executives and

suitable persons available for a job. Because of their specialization, they can

interpret the needs of their clients and seek out particular types of persons.

45
State or Public Employment Agencies:

They also knew as Employment or Labor Exchanges, are the main agencies for

public employment. They also provide a wide range of services, like

counseling, assistance in getting jobs, information about the labor market,

labor and wage rates, etc.

Executive Research Agencies:

They maintain a complete information records about employed executives and

recommend persons of high caliber for managerial, marketing and production

engineers posts. These agencies are looked upon as head hunters, raiders,

and pirates.

Trade Unions:

The employers to supply whatever additional employees may be needed often

call on Trade Unions. Unions may be asked for recommendations largely as a

matter of courtesy and an evidence of goodwill and cooperation.

Professional Societies:

46
 They may provide leads and clues in providing promising candidates for

engineering, technical and management positions. Some of these maintain

mail order placement services.

SELECTION

Selection is the process of carefully screening the candidates to choose the most

suitable person for the job vacancies to be filled. Under it qualifications, training,

experience, and background of applicant are evaluated in the light of job

requirement. It divides the candidates into two categories namely,

a) Those who are employed

b) Those who are to be rejected.

A formal definition of selection is as following:

It is the process of differentiating between applicants in order to identify (and

hire) those with a greater likelihood of success in a job.

47
 Selection process assumes and rightly so, that there are more number of

candidate actually selected candidates are made available through recruitment

process.

BARRIERS TO EFFECTIVE SELECTION

The main objectives of selection are 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.

Fairness: Fairness is selection requires that no individual should be discriminated

against on the basis of religion, region, race or gender. But the low numbers of

women and other less-privileged sections of the society in 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.

48
Reliability: A reliable method is one that will produce consistent results when

repeated in similar situations. Like a validated test, a reliable test may fail to

predict job performance with precision.

Pressure: Pressure is brought on the selectors by politicians, bureaucrats,

relatives, friends and peers to select particular candidates. Candidates selected

because of compulsions are obviously not the rights ones. Appointments to public

sector undertakings generally take place under such pressures.

SELECTION PROCEDEURE

The selection procedure is concerned with securing relevant information about an

applicant. This information is secured in a number of steps and stages. The

objective of selection process is to determine whether an applicant needs the

qualification for a specific job and to choose the applicant who is most likely to

perform in that job.

The hiring procedures not a single acts but it is essentially a series of methods

or steps or stages by which additional information is secured about the applicant.

At each stage, facts may come to light, which lead to the rejection of the

49
applicant. A procedure may be considered to a series of successive hurdles or

barriers, which an applicant must cross.

These are indented as screens and they are designed to eliminate an

unqualified applicant at any point in this process. That technique is known as the

successive hurdle technique. Not all selection process includes all these hurdles.

The complexity of process usually increases with the level and responsibility of

the position to be fulfilled.

A well-organized selection procedure should be designed to select

sustainable candidates for various jobs. Each step in the selection process should

help in getting more and more information about the candidate. There is no idle

selection procedure appropriate for all cases.

2.2.5.1.1.2.1 Steps in the selection process:

Preliminary Screening

Application Blank

Employment Tests

Selection Interview

Medical or Physical Examination

Checking Reference

50
 Final Approval

Preliminary Screening:

This is essentially to check whether the candidate fulfills the minimum

qualification. The preliminary interview is generally quite brief. Its aim is to

eliminate the unsuitable candidate. The job seekers are received at the reception

counter of the company. The receptionists or other official interviews the

candidates to determine whether he is worthwhile or the candidate to fill up the

application blank. Candidates processing the minimum qualification and having

some chances of being selected are given the prescribed application form known

as application blank.

Application Blank:

The candidates are required to give full information about their age, qualification,

experience, family background, aptitude and interests act in the application blank.

The application blank provides a written record about the candidate. The

application form should be designed to obtain all relevant information about the

candidates. All applications received from the candidates are carefully scrutinized.

After the scrutiny more suitable candidates among the applicants are short-listed

for written tests and others are rejected.

51
Employment Tests:

Candidates are asked to appear for written or other tests. Tests have

become popular screening devices. These tests are based on the

assumption that human traits and work behaviors can be predicted by

sampling, however tests are not fully reliable and they also involve time

and money. Test is more useful in identifying and eliminating unsuitable

candidates therefore should be used only as supplements rather than an

independent technique of selection. The main types of tests are

Intelligence tests

Aptitude Test

Interest Test

Personality Test

Dexterity Test

Selection Interview:

It involves a face-to-face conversation between the employer and the candidate;

the selector asks a job related and general questions. The way in which a

candidate responds to the question is evaluated. The objectives of the interview

are as following:

52
 To find out the candidates overall suitability for the job.

To cross-check the information obtained through application blank and

tests, and

To give an accurate picture of the job and the company.

Interview is the most widely used step in employee selection. However, interview

suffers from several drawbacks:

Firstly, it is a time consuming and expensive device. Secondly, it can test only the

personality of the candidate and not his skill for the job. Thirdly, the interviewer

may not be an expert and may fill to extract all relevant information from the

candidate. Fourthly, the personal judgment or bias of the interviewer may make

the result of the interviews inaccurate.

Interview should be properly conducted in a proper physical environment. The

interview room should be free from noise and interruptions. The environment

should be confident and quite. People generally talk freely and frankly when there

is privacy and comfort. Therefore, candidates should be put at ease. The

interviewer should pay full attention to what the candidates have to say.

53
Medical or Physical Examination:

Candidates who are found suitable after interview are called for physical

examination. A Panel of doctors to insure that they are healthy and physically fit

for the job does a medical check-up of such candidates. A proper medical

examination will also ensure that the candidates selected do not suffer from any

serious desirous which may create problems in future.

Checking Reference:

Generally, every candidate if required to state in the application form, the name

and address of at least two responsible persons who know him. The reference

may not give their Frank opinion unless promises made that in all information will

be kept strictly confidential. Moreover the information given by them may be

biased in the form of candidate.

Final Approval:

The candidates who are found suitable after the medical check-up and

background investigation are formally appointed by issuing appointment letter to

them. They are asked to join duty by the specified date. No selection procedure is

foolproof and the best way judge a person is by observing him working on the job.

54
Candidate who gives satisfactory during the probationary period are made

permanent.

SUCCESSIVE HURDLES IN THE SELECTION PROCESS

55
56
2.2.5.1.2 Suggested Selection Criteria for Students

It is imperative to not only recruit those students who do well academically but

also those who possess a winning attitude but may not have done as well

academically. The following selection criteria can be used as a guide:

a. Academics Focus on students who have consistently done exceptionally

well

b. Extra and Co curricular activities Focus on Leadership, Initiative

c. Personality and Attitude Focus on Communication, Presentation and

Teamwork

At the end of the selection process, the Campus Recruitment Team will compile a

list of selected candidates and handover the same to the Placement Officer. An

announcement can also be made to inform students at the same time.

57
Offer Letters:

Offer Letters will be sent to the selected candidates within 7 days of the selection

process at the Campus. Candidates have to indicate his/her acceptance by signing

and returning the copy of the letter to HR not more than15 days after receipt of

the letter. Where required blank offer letters will be carried to the Campus and

given at the time of placement itself.

A. Trainee Scheme (A)

Once selected, all trainees will be provided with an HR brochure that lists the

details of the trainee scheme as outlined below:

Travel: Management Trainees will be provided with AC class Train Fare from

home to the company. Conveyance expenses such as travel (taxi) from the

Railway station to the place of posting etc. will be provided.

Accommodation: Trainees will be provided with shared accommodation (for

bachelors/spinsters). Guest House (twin sharing) will be provided for one month

for outstation candidates. Any accommodation required after this period will be

deducted from the trainees stipend.

58
TYPICAL REASONS FOR EMPLOYEE TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT

Training and development can be initiated for a variety of reasons for an

employee or group of employees, e.g.

1.) When a performance appraisal indicates performance improvement is needed

2) To "benchmark" the status of improvement so far in a performance

improvement effort

3) As part of an overall professional development program

4) As part of succession planning to help an employee be eligible for a

planned change in role in the organization

5) To "pilot", or test, the operation of a new performance management system

6) To train about a specific topic (see below)

59
2.2.6 TYPICAL TOPICS OF EMPLOYEE TRAINING

1. Communications: The increasing diversity of today's workforce brings a wide

variety of languages and customs.

2. Computer skills: Computer skills are becoming a necessity for conducting

administrative and office tasks.

3. Customer service: Increased competition in today's global marketplace makes

it critical that employees understand and meet the needs of customers.

4. Diversity: Diversity training usually includes explanation about how people

have different perspectives and views, and includes techniques to value diversity.

5. Ethics: Today's society has increasing expectations about corporate social

responsibility.

Also, today's diverse workforce brings a wide variety of values and morals to the

workplace.

6. Human relations: The increased stresses of today's workplace can include

misunderstandings and conflict. Training can people to get along in the

workplace.

7. Quality initiatives: Initiatives such as Total Quality Management, Quality

Circles, benchmarking, etc., require basic training about quality concepts,

guidelines and standards for quality, etc.

60
8. Safety: Safety training is critical where working with heavy equipment ,

hazardous chemicals, repetitive activities, etc., but can also be useful with

practical advice for avoiding assaults, etc.

9. Sexual harassment: Sexual harassment training usually includes careful

description of the organization's policies about sexual harassment, especially

about what are inappropriate behaviors.

GENERAL BENEFITS FROM EMPLOYEE TRAINING AND DEVELPOMENT

There are numerous sources of on-line information about training and

development. Several of these sites (they're listed later on in this library) suggest

reasons for supervisors to conduct training among employees. These reasons

include:

1. Increased job satisfaction and morale among employees

2. Increased employee motivation

3. Increased efficiencies in processes, resulting in financial gain

4. Increased capacity to adopt new technologies and methods

5. Increased innovation in strategies and products

6. Reduced employee turnover

61
7. Enhanced company image, e.g., conducting ethics training (not a good reason

for ethics training!)

8. Risk management, e.g., training about sexual harassment, diversity training

Every time I see a recruitment ad or manual that makes a reference to "on the job

training," I cringe. Would this be one of those situations where there is effectively

"no training?" Designing a program for employee training and development is not

a trivial process that can be left to chance. It is not enough to "hope" that

employees will get trained "on the job."

But, before I make a case for effective employee training and development, let us

examine the reasons for developing employees.

You will be perceived as a premium employer as employees' skill sets will

be enhanced while they are with you.

Superior employee training and development will ensure that serious

succession related issues do not creep up.

The organization will be able to constantly adapt to changes in technology,

regulation, and the business environment in general.

The list can go on and on. But, since I have made an effective case for

organizations to take interest in employee training and development, let us look

62
at some of the don't dos:

Employee training and employee development are not goals in themselves.

There is the risk of the HR function developing a divergent set of objectives

from the objective set of the organization.

Budgeting for employee training and development is a very tricky process.

On the one hand, I have noticed enthusiastic organizations which, in a fit,

allocate as much as 40% of personnel budgets on training. On the other, I

have seen employee training and development budgets being the first

victim of budget cuts. The ideal situation would be to budget moderately,

making sure that the development program can be sustained.

Gee-whiz and buzz word training can be fun (especially for the trainer), but

does not result in employee development. Care must be taken to ensure

that the trainer and the training program designer are the best that money

/ time / effort can buy.

Keeping some of these ideas in mind, the human resource manager can help

senior management chart out the organizational strategy for personnel planning.

Management training programs can be very beneficial for your business and your

employees. Ongoing education is a key ingredient to any firm's ability to grow,

63
both as a business and in terms of a competitive advantage.

If the employees are nurtured and provided with opportunities once on-board, it

will not only lead to a greater retention rate, but also growth potential in your

industry.

AREAS OF TRAINING

Areas of training can be classified into the following categories:

1. Training in company policies and procedures (induction training)

2. Training in particular skills

3. Training in human relations

4. Training in problem solving

5. Managerial and supervisory training

6. Apprentice training

 DATA ANALYSIS

AND INTERPRETATION

66
 This chapter aims obtain the objective of the study by critically analysing the qualitative
data through thoroughly examining the interviewees responses and beliefs. This has been
achieved through evaluating the most relevant responses by the participants. The data has been
analysed and discussed by comparing the comments made by the respondents with the literature
review keeping in mind the research objective of the study. Thus, the rationale of this analysis is
based on the personal answers provided by the respondents.

An appropriately designed questionnaire was used to collect the primary data for the study. The
data for 100 respondents was organized systematically in tables and graphs and then was
subjected to analysis using appropriate statistical tools. The results of the analysis are presented
in the following section in order to assess the customer perception towards online shopping on
Reliance jio.com in India.

Here for analysing, we are considering two factors. That is:

Demographical factors
Behavioural factors

This means a good communicaton about Reliance jio is going on through friends and families,
which proves that word of mouth strategy by them is the most successful means of making
people aware about their products. Success can only be gained through delighted customers who
act as advocates for their products and there is a wide scope of other digital advertisement
techniques like search engine marketing, email- marketing, providing links and blog
SUGGESTIONS inorder to make more customers.

46% of respondents are rated excellent for cash on delivery service, while for 30 days
replacement policy 55% rated good and 23% rated excellent. For EMI options 48% rated good
and 21% rated excellent, and for free shipping 35% rated excellent.

While analysing the data, customers have more interest in two services of Reliance jio: That is,
30 days replacement policy and EMI options.

Since Reliance jio is providing 30 days replacement policy for all the products in the platform.
And this combined mix service increased the customer trust.

In case of EMI options, Reliance jio is the only site which accepts all credit cards and thus it
provides a better payment options to the customers.

Cash on delivery is a compactable service that provided to the customers and they are much
satisfied on that service also. Even some rated less for this service, may be because of less
customised experience on cash on delivery.

In case of free shipping, Reliance jio provide this service for total purchase of rupees 300 and
above only. So it may affect some of the customers who purchase less price products frequently.

Analysis and Interpretation:

In this survey, 30% of customers didnt face any of those problems that mentioned, while 37%
of customers faced out of stock issue. This is one of serious issue faced by most of customers.
Since discounts and features are the one feature that most of the customers looking for and
when a good product with high discount is displayed in Reliance jio platform, customers
brought it as soon as they could. Thus the products will be out of stocked.

Reliance jio started notifying the customers about the product when the stock got available.

Payment issues and replacement issues are less in number (total 12%) since different payment
options like EMI options, card payments, Cash on delivery, Wallet payments etc are
provided by Reliance jio and customers are satisfied with those.

In case of replacement also only less issues are happened, thus shows most of them are satisfied
with that service.

Delay in delivery happens because of shipping and courier service issues. It is a problem with
supply chain. Mostly it happens in the end part of the supply and in rural areas where courier
services are less active.

Faulty product issue also happened to 8% of the customers and one of the policies to overcome
this issue is 30 days replacement policy of Reliance jio.

 FINDINGS,

RECOMMENDATIONS AND

LIMITATIONS

85
 FINDINGS, RECOMMENDATIONS AND LIMITATIONS

Criticality of the Task:

The significance of this task (training feedback) is primarily to understand whether

employees are satisfied with the training programs conducted in the organization

by the training and development team.

Basically the focus was on to fetch the feedback of DSS (Digital Sales Specialists)

as theyre the frontier of the organization in the market and deals with the

customers to make sales as much as possible for the organization. So proper

induction program and training sessions have to be conducted timely, so that

there may left no gap between training program concepts and the DSS, as they

must be properly introduced and trained about any existing or upcoming product,

service or scheme and that the methods adopted to train them is best.

Limitations of the Study:

Various limitations occurred in performing this task are-

The employees found it difficult to answer questions properly because of

their busy work schedule.

Total time allowed by the company to do the project was limited.

86
 In view of the limited time available for the study, only training process

could be studied.

All the information required was not available by the company for

confidential norms and standards.

The sample size is small to reflect the opinion of all reliance jio.

The answer given by the respondents have to be believed and have to be

taken for granted as truly reflecting their perception.

Conclusion:

Analyses of all the facts and figures, observation and experience during the

training period delivered to DSS gives a very positive impression on training

sessions imparted by the Learning (training) and Development Team and the

organization. Substantial number employees are content with the way the

training is conducted still there are few either non attentive, confused otherwise.

As majority of the employees were of opinion, that objectives behind conducting

any training session, theyre totally satisfied. In case of type of training being

conducted majority felt that traditional classroom learning and e- learning (Jio

University courses) are beneficial and convenient for them. And employees also

rated training team 4 or 5 on the scale of 5, where 1- very poor and 5- excellent.

87
It can be concluded that Learning and Development team is taking their role on

positive side and making employees ready for their respective role. Overall

employees are satisfied and motivated for the organization.

88
 RECOMMENDATIONS

Brief Description of Recommendations:

Following are some of the possible recommendations-

Hiring on the basis of not only skills but also attitude.

Timely assessment of DSS training needs.

Implementation of pre and post training evaluation.

Motivating DSS for their work and the company.

Proper training reliance jio should be prepared continuously that may help

in identify who are trained and who are left.

Details of each Recommendation:

Hiring of employees should be not done only on the basis of skills and

talent but also the attitude they carry and show should be one of the

important parameter for selection. This is directly linked to effectiveness of

training, as if employees carry positive attitude then training for them can

be more effective.

Training needs should be assessed on regularly basis by observing the

performance of the employees and also through feedback.

89
 Training records should be properly prepared, preserved and updated time

to time, so that dump can be created of those employees who are absent

from sessions.

Currently no evaluation is taking place so as to get feedback on training

been taken of DSS. This will help the trainersto know DSSs pre and post

training performance. This will benefit trainers as well as trainees in future.

As motivation is low in some of DSS which is affecting their performance in

their respective stores. So it is important that trainers must look at the
