Hiring of services and personnel.

Possibilities.

1. Outsourcing. An external company conducts the recruitment

and selection of personnel and the contracting of them. Then
workers from this pool are sent to other companies to do
specific jobs. In the case of training, some outsourcing
companies specialize on this kind of personnel (trainers,
training, organizers and technical support personnel)

2. Direct recruitment, selection and contracting of personnel.

Here, we use recruitment sources (internal and external),
selection procedures /tools (interviews, testing, application
form, resume, medical /physical exam, socioeconomic study/
assessment)

Projection for the future.

Example: we have a training and development company that has

been continuosly growing up. We need to predict how many
instructors are needed for 2011. We have a history of 12 years
employment. What can we do?

We can use some statistics as follows.

Year. Number of instructors.

2010 32
2009 30
2008 27
2007 23
2006 22
2005 18
2004 17
2003 17
2002 16
2001 14
2000 12
1999 12
1998 10

Despues se hace una grafica de puntos, donde se puede ver como han
incrementado los numerous de instructors con los años. Metodos de ajuste:

Method 1: adjust to a line by hand and extrapolate for year 2011

Method 2: adjust by using “means square method”
