RECRUITMENT
AND
SELECTION
5
INTRODUCTION
Having determined the human resources requirements the recruitment and hiring process'
begins. Recruitment is the process of searching for prospective employees and
stimulating them to apply for the jobs in the organization. Recruitment is a linkage
activity bringing together those with jobs and those seeking jobs.
"Recruitment is the process to discover the sources of manpower to meet the
requirements of the staffing schedule and to employ effective measures for attracting that
manpower in adequate number to facilitate effective relation of an efficient workforce",
Dale Yoder.
Flippo has also expressed similar views about recruitment. In his words "it is a process of
searching for prospective employees and stimulating and encouraging them to apply for
the jobs in the organization. It is often termed positive in that it stimulates people to apply
for jobs to increase the hiring ratio, i.e. the number of applicants for a job".
According to Dalton E. Me Farland, "The term recruitment applies to the process of
attracting potential employees to the company".
When we think of recruitment, our mind says read news paper but each and every
organization may not be applying the same method of giving advertisement in news paper
for recruitment. This company has its own recruitment policy. It uses both external and
internal methods of recruitment. Recruitment is the process of searching for prospective
employees and stimulating them to apply for jobs in the organization. When most people
apply for jobs then there will be a scope for recruiting better persons.
SOURCES OF RECRUITMENT
6
In general the sources of recruitment of employees can be classified in to two type’s i.e.
A) Internal Sources
B) External Sources
SOURCES OF RECRUITMENT
Transfer Advertisement
Promotion Employment Exchange
Employee Referrals Unsolicited Applicants
Former Employees Professional Org.
Previous Applicants Data Banks
Absorption of Trainees Similar Org.
Casual Callers
Labours Contractors
Campus Recruitment
Trade Unions
A. INTERNAL SOURCES
Fill a job opening from within the organization has the advantages of stimulating
preparation for possible transfer or promotion, increasing the general level of morale and
providing more information about job to candidates through analysis of work histories
7
within the organization. Such a system is more compatible with adopting the
organization, to the needs of individuals, for the employer. It should result in better
matching employee and job in addition to meeting requirements for equal opportunity for
advancement of all employees. Internal applications are often restricted to certain
employees with the following guidelines:-
(i) Good or better on most recent performance review.
(ii) Dependable attendance record.
(iii) Not under probationary sanction
(iv) Having been in present position for one year.
There are number of internal sources which are as follows:
a) Present Employees:
Promotion and transfer from among the present employees can be a good source of
recruitment.
(i) Promotion: - It refers to shifting of persons to positions, carrying better prestige,
higher responsibilities and more salaries.
(ii) Transfer: - It involves shifting of persons from present jobs to other similar
places. These don't involve any change in rank, responsibility, prestige, status and
pay of the employee.
b) Employee Referrals:
In an organization with a large number of employees this approach can provide a
large pool of potential organizational members. Most employees know from their own
experience about the requirements of the job and what sort of persons the company is
looking for. Often employees have friends to meet these requirements.
c) Former Employees:
Some retired employees may be willing to come back to work which is a good internal
source of recruitment.
d) Previous Applicants:
Those who have previously applied for jobs can be contacted by mail or by phone.
This is a quick and inexpensive way to filling an unexpected vacancy.
e)Absorption of Trainees:
The Trainees are the persons who are provided training in specialized trade in the
8
B. EXTERNAL SOURCES:
a) Advertisement: - This is the best method of recruiting persons for higher and
experienced jobs. The advertisements are given in local or national press, trade or
professional journals. The requirements are given in the advertisement management
gets a wider range of candidates for selection.
b) Exchange: - unemployed persons get themselves registered with the exchanges
run by the government. The vacancies may be notified with the exchanges whenever
there is a need.
c) Unsolicited Applicants: - persons in search of employment may contact
employers through telephone, by post or in person. Generally employers with good
reputation get unsolicited applications.
d) Professional Organization:-Professional organizations maintain complete Bio-
data of their members and supply it to companies on demand.
e) Data Banks:- The recruitment firms can prepare data bank about various
persons in different fields. They can collect information from educational institute,
employment exchanges, professional organizations etc.
f) Similar Organizations:- The organizations producing similar products or
having the same line of business act as an important source of recruitment.
g) Casual Callers:- Management may appoint persons who casually call on
them for meeting short term demands. These persons are appointed for short
periods only.
h) Labour Contractors:- When workers are required for short period it is quite
common to engage contractors for the supply of labour.
i) Campus Recruitment:- Colleges, Universities, Research labs are also fertile
grounds for recruitment.

SELECTION
The process of selection leads to employment of persons having the ability and skill to
perform the jobs, which have fallen vacant in the organization. The appointment of
suitable persons on various jobs is very essential. In order to achieve this purpose, a well
organized selection procedure involves many steps and each step more and more
information is obtained about the candidates. Selection is a negative process of weeding
out misfits from the eligible candidates. It is a process of matching as far as possible the
job specification. It is to verify and determined the degree to which a candidate fits in the
framework of the job specification.
The selection procedure is not a single act 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 may lead to the rejection of the applicants.
SIGNIFICANCE OF SELECTION
Selection has become a critical process these days it requires a heavy investment of
money to get right type of people. Induction and training costs are also high. If the right
types of persons are not chosen, it will lead to a huge loss of the employer in terms
according to the requirements of the job, they will show higher efficiency and
productivity. This will enable the organization to achieve its objectives effectively.
10
SELECTION PROCEDURE
There cannot be a rigid procedure of selection suitable for all types of organizations.
Procedure and the sequence of steps varies from organization to organization. Every
organization will design a selection procedure which suits its requirements. Selection
procedure may be compared to a series of barriers which an applicant is required to cross
before final selection is made. The following steps are generally followed in a selection
process:
1. Receipt and Scrutiny of Applications
2. Preliminary Interview
3. Blank Application Form
4. Tests
5. Interviews
6. Checking References
7. Preliminary and Final Selection
8. Medical Examination
9. Placement and Orientation
1) Receipt and Scrutiny of Applications:- The first step in the process of selection
is receipt and scrutiny of applications. The personnel department provides
information about vacant posts and receives applications from the candidates. The
scrutiny of applications is done and those who do not fulfill the basic
requirements are not called for preliminary interviews. Only those candidates are
called for further process of selection, which are found to be meeting with job
standards and requirements of the organizations.
etc. The applicants selected at preliminary interview are given blank application
forms for submitting detailed information.
3) Blank Application Form:-Standard application forms are drawn up for all jobs
and supplied to the candidates. This provides information with regard to
applicant's name, Address, martial status, education, works experience etc. It
enables the personnel department to draw tentative inferences about applicant's
suitability for the employment. An attempt is made to elicit maximum
information in application blank.
4) Tests:-Individuals differ in almost all aspects one can think of. They differ with
respect to physical characteristics, capacity, level of mental ability, their likes and
dislikes and also with respect to personality traits. The patron of physical, mental
and personal variables gives rise to thousand and one combinations and the
particular patterns makes the individual suitable for several classes of activities,
jobs or fields of work. Matching of individual's physical mental and temperament
pattern with the requirements of job is a difficult task. But where this matching
takes place the result is happiness for the individual and prosperity for the
organization and the society so before deciding upon the job or jobs suitable for a
particular individual, one should know the level of his ability and knowledge, the
pattern of his interest and aptitudes in detail. To know this a variety of tests may
be used to get result at different times. Psychologists have devised a number of
tests, which are frequently used.
Some of these tests are as follows:
1. Intelligence Tests
2. Aptitude Tests
3. Trade or Proficiency Tests
4. Interest Tests
5. Personality Tests
5) Interviews:- Though application blank & tests give enough information about the
12
candidate, yet they don't provide the complete information required of the
applicant. Interview enables the interviewer to judge certain qualities like
manners, appearance, grasp of things of the prospective candidate. "An interview
is a purposeful exchange of ideas, the answering of questions and communication
between two or more persons" Scott.
Types of interviews:
1. Patterned or Structured Interviewed
2. Unstructured or Non- directed Interview
3. Preliminary or Background Information Interview
4. Stress Interview
5. Group interview
9) Placement:- The selected candidates, after going through the regress procedure
may be given copies of rules, regulations, procedures followed in the
organization. He should be given detailed description of the job to be assigned to
him. He should be introduced to his superior and subordinates. He should be
made aware of location of canteen, toilets, dispensary and recreation room etc.
Proper orientation of an employee will help him to adjust comfortably in the new
environment
PERSONNEL POLICY
A personnel policy provides guidelines for a variety of employment relation such
recruitment, Selection, training, promotion etc. A large number of problems are solved at
lower level in the light of policy.
A policy can be defined as the predetermined course of action established as the
guide towards accepted goals and objectives. Policies are the means to achieve the goals
of the enterprise.

PROCEDURE OF
RECRUITMENT &
SELECTION IN
MAHARANI OF
INDIA (GARMENT
DIVISION)
RECRUITMENT PROCEDURE
PLACEMENT
After the lengthy and hectic process of recruitment and selection it becomes the duty of
the management to see that the right person is placed at the right job.
Proper placement of the workers reduces labour turnover, accident rates and absenteeism
and helps to improve the morale. Once an employee is selected, he has to be properly
absorbed in the organization and such an employee gets the knowledge regarding the job
to be performed, his duties, responsibilities and authority through his immediate superior.
INDUCTION
Induction is a welcoming process in which the basic idea of the existing employees is to
make the newcomer feel at home and to generate a feeling that he has been placed at right
job, the job is meaningful and has a significant role in the total organization.
In Maharani of India the new employee is first of all provided with necessary
information. He is introduced to all the staff members and especially to immediate senior
and juniors. He is also informed about the important parts of the organization.
TRAINING
After the induction process is over, the next important step is that of training. Training
helps an employee to come up with some specialized knowledge related to his job. It is
systematic process to increase the knowledge, abilities, aptitudes and skills of the workers
to perform their jobs. In Maharani of India both on the job and off the job training is
provided to the new employees.
Selection in the Company means a "matching of a man to a job." Selection process
involves choosing of individual who posses the necessary skill, abilities to fulfill the
specific job. During survey, it has been observed that normally selection of an employee
is made possible only by a passing through following steps as shown in diagram given
below
18
i) Achievement Test: - The knowledge acquired by a candidate before applying for job is
ascertained by these tests. An applicant is asked to perform a particular job in the
factory.
ii) Dexterity Test: - These tests are designed to find out how efficiently and swiftly an
applicant uses his hands, finger, eyes other parts of the body.
B) Aptitude Tests:- Such tests measure the skill and ability, which a person may develop
later on. These measure the talent, ability of a candidate to learn a new job skill. The
aptitude for learning and bent of mind is accessed in these tests.
i. Intelligence Tests: - These tests measure the overall intellectual activity or I.Q. of
the applicant. Candidates word fluency, memory, reasoning are also determined
with these tests. These tests are generally conducted for selecting persons for
executive jobs.
ii. Personality Tests: - Personality tests are designed to know about the non -
intellectual aspects of the candidate. His mixing with people, temperament, liking
and disliking, motivation, confidence etc. are observed with the help of these
tests. Personality tests are also used for selecting persons for middle and higher
positions.
iii. Movement Tests: - These measure the speed and precision of movement in an
applicant. These tests are applied for persons under taking technical jobs.
iv. Interest Tests: - These tests are aimed to find out the type and nature of work in
which an applicant is interested. The efficiency and job satisfaction will be
more if the jobs are according to tastes of the persons.
ii) Non Directive or Free interview: - This type of interview is also applied. This type of
interviews unstructured and is not planned in advance. In this the candidate is asked
to express its views on general topics. Interview is not directed as to questions but the
candidate expresses his views on upbringing interests, motivation etc.
iii) Depth or Action interview: - This is a semi structured interview. In Maharani of
India the candidates are asked on the subjects studied by him or her. The candidates
are also asked questions about his previous experience, aptitude, hobbies. The replies
of candidates are used to assess the potentiality of the candidates and their suitability
for the job.
iv) Selectors interview: - Different interviewers put questions on separate topics. For
example, first interviewer may ask question about educational qualification, second
may put question on previous' experience while the third .may ask general knowledge
question and so on. The candidate is assessed on the basis of combined rating by the
selection board of the company.
v) Stress interview: - In Maharani of India for the selection of top managerial level the
stress interview is also conducted in the selection process. This is done to assess how
a candidate reacts in a difficult situation.
The interviewer assumes a hostile attitude towards the candidate. The candidate is
asked one question after other in quick succession; again questions may be put on his
answers.
6. Checking References:- In Maharani of India the candidates are asked to name two
or three persons who know about his experience skill, ability etc. but that person
should not be related to him.
21
7. Final Selection:- The Personnel Manager cannot finalize the list of the selected
candidates. In Maharani of India the Personnel Manager sends the list of the selective
candidates to the line manager for formal approval. After getting the formal approval
from the line manager, the letter of appointment is issued to the candidate by the
company.

Research Design
My research is exploratory research. It is exploratory because its explore the facts. In
Maharani of India we exploit the procedure of recruitment and selection.
Sample Size
The number of employees in Maharani of India was about 550 in all units. It was quite
difficult to approach each and every worker. Therefore I followed a sample method in
observing the workers and that was by sampling method.
To simplify my work, I selected the workers at random sample of 50 workers from
different departments keeping in view the number of workers in each department.
30
Primary Data: - I went to the shop floor and conducted the interviews of the workers
and employees. Through the interviews, I am able to know about the recruitment and
selection policies, recruitment and selection procedures and their different methods. For
this purpose, an appropriate structured questionnaire and interviews and designed.
Discussions were also made with senior executives to seek relevant knowledge.
Most of the workers were non - co-operative, they thought that the survey was being
done by the company and because of unsatisfactory conditions they were not
answering properly of the question.
The period of study was limited, that is just six weeks. It is very difficult to have in
depth on the project work due to the limited period of time.
In spite all of these difficulties; I was able to collect the first hand information regarding
the recruitment and selection procedure followed in Maharani of India.

46
have left the job for any reason what so ever, in order to avoid unnecessary
provision of training/ induction programming to casual workers.
In the Maharani of India recruitment and selection process goes simultaneously
for the selection of unskilled and skilled workers. Since no particular qualification
is required for these two types of labour class generally applicants are called at
once and are interviewed directly, which is not healthy sign of management.
From the respondents feed back, it can be judged that around 30% of respondents
were not aware about the recruitment and selection policies because of the lack of
proper communication of these policies up to operative level.
Level of participation needs to be encouraged and improved.
Some of the workers in department are not good they delay the works and this can
create the problem for low class workers.
In Maharani of India HRD department is not highly skilled, only a few a HRD
members having the management degree.
I have observed that in many cases the newly recruited workers get training and
skill from Maharani of India, but are tempted to shift to some other similar
organization that offers them better remuneration. Thus, time and energy spent on
their training is wasted. A scheme should be evolved to ensure that such workers
who get training and acquire skill from Maharani of India should be bound to
work for a particular period.
SUGGESTIONS
It is suggested that recruitment and selection function should be organized in such
a scientific manner so as to avoid cost on recruitment.
It is suggested that co. should not put the friends and relatives of present
workforce together on the same machine or specific job in order to avoid the
formation of group unions etc. which can create the problem for management
later on.

CHAPTER-7
CONCLUSION
49
CONCLUSION
In the end of my project I conclude that recruitment and selection is very huge process
and it very difficult to recruit a right person for a particular job. I have seen that an HR
manager has many challenges in an organization. They have to solve the disputes among
50
all the employees and workers and they are the responsible for select a right person to a
right place. Recruitment start when need arising of a person in the organization and it
accomplish when a person select and place to particular job.
