INTRODUCTION
Management is not a new concept to us. Since the times of Ramayana and Mahabharata, we have
witnessed its presence. However, earlier management was defined as a person’s quality. This
doesn’t ’t surprise us considering the fact that earlier the sons had to follow in their fathers’
footsteps and had to do what their fathers did. The ability of efficient management was considered
as a hereditary gift. However, as the world kept evolving, various authors, philosophers and
theorists put in a viewpoint that management can be learnt as well.
Today, management studies are considered a necessity for the development of small and big
organizations and for the growth of great economies.
There has been a constant realization by the industries that the current manages are not
competent enough to meet the industry requirements as graduates today are more into bookish
knowledge.
Thus, the education system shifted towards acknowledging the need for practical on-field learning
so the study patterns were altered. The new educational pattern in BBA involves the student to
undergo an on the field training in an organization under the close supervision of a superior in the
organization.
This training will help him develop a perspective of wholesome management of business activities
and see how they are interrelated. Thus, a student will have on the field knowledge so when he
enters the industry, he will provide efficient and skilled management.
SYNOPSIS
This project was undertaken during my internship at Concentrix for a period of 2 months. I worked
on the topic “Human Resource Recruitment” Of Concentrix.
The project is focused upon what is the outsourcing and BPO industries and in what all field they
deal in. Concentrix, which is also a BPO recruits fresh talent for various other companies.
This project is a reflection of what I learnt throughout my internship With Concentrix. It involves
the candidate recruitment I did, varying from the local Bangalore cover to the outstation segment
of Bangalore, which will help Concentrix with its recruitment in the major location of India.
Concentrix deals in recruitment of fresh talent as well as customer interaction and follow back.
Recruitment was done for various companies and through various means. This is why I chose
Concentrix as I was given the opportunity to interact with customers of all levels and sectors. It
provided me with challenges and helped me learn Human Resource behavior.
This project is an attempt to understand how a BPO works and recruits’ people from all over the
globe. It is not possible to include all the points as Human Resource is a vast subject. I will focus upon
the major factors involved. Through this project, I am showcasing what I learnt from my internship.

THE OUTSOURCING INDUSTRY
OUTSOURCING
Outsourcing is an agreement in which one company hires another company to be responsible for
a planned or existing activity that is or could be done internally, and sometimes involves
transferring employees and assets from one firm to another.
Outsourcing is also the practice of handing over control of public services to private enterprises,
even if on a short-term limited basis.
Outsourcing includes both foreign and domestic contracting, and sometimes includes offshoring
(relocating a business function to a distant country) or nearshoring (transferring a business
process to a nearby country).
BUSINESS PROCESS OUTSOURCING
The term Business Process Outsourcing or BPO as it is popularly known, refers to outsourcing in
all fields. A BPO service provider usually administers and manages a particular business process
for another company. BPOs either use new technology or apply an existing technology in a new
way to improve a particular business process. India is currently the number one destination for
business process outsourcing, as most companies in the US and UK outsource IT-related business
processes to Indian service providers.
Amex, British Airways and GE started the outsourcing trend in the early 1990s. The aim was to
reduce costs and to minimize efforts spent on non-core activities.
It is the delegation of one or more of IT intensive business processes to an external provider, which
in turn owns, manages, and administers the selected processes based on defined and measurable
performance criteria. BPO as per the work performed can be classified as VOICE BASED, which
includes customer related services such as technical support, marketing etc. and NON-VOICE,
which includes internal business operations. And as per the location involved it can be classified
as:
➢ ON-SHORE: BPO that is contracted inside a company’s country
➢ NEAR-SHORE: BPO that is contracted to a company’s neighbouring country.
➢ OFF-SHORE: BPO that is contracted outside a company’s country.
OBJECTIVES OF BPO:
Traditionally, the main objective of companies outsourcing their business processes to India was
the want of low cost. But now-a-days, companies that offshore their business processes to India
are no longer looking at cost reduction alone.
They typically want to achieve:
1)Process improvement and efficiency - faster turnaround and greater productivity
2) Cost savings.
3) Improved quality - less errors/rework
4) Building/strengthening presence in a new market/foreign country.
5) Increased focus on core competencies - e.g. developing new products or services
6) Building business value and strategic differentiation.

HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT
Human resource management (HRM or HR) is the strategic approach to the effective
management of people in a company or organization such that they help their business gain a
competitive advantage. It is designed to maximize employee performance in service of an
employer's strategic objectives.
Human resource management is primarily concerned with the management of people within
organizations, focusing on policies and systems. HR departments are responsible for overseeing
employee-benefits design, employee recruitment, training and development, performance
appraisal, and reward management, such as managing pay and benefit systems. HR also concerns
itself with organizational change and industrial relations, or the balancing of organizational
practices with requirements arising from collective bargaining and governmental laws.
The overall purpose of human resources (HR) is to ensure that the organization is able to achieve
success through people. HR professionals manage the human capital of an organization and focus
on implementing policies and processes. They can specialize in finding, recruiting, training, and
developing employees, as well as maintaining employee relations or benefits. Training and
development professionals ensure that employees are trained and have continuous development.
This is done through training programs, performance evaluations, and reward programs.
Employee relations deals with the concerns of employees when policies are broken, such as cases
involving harassment or discrimination.
Human Resource Management has four basic functions: staffing, training and development,
motivation, and maintenance. Staffing is the recruitment and selection of potential employees,
done through interviewing, applications, networking, etc. There are two main factors to staffing:
attracting talented recruits and hiring resources. HR Managers must create detailed recruitment
Strategic and have a plan of action to put forward when recruiting. Next, managers can put
strategies into place through hiring resources, by extending out to find the best possible recruits
for the team. Recruiting is very competitive since every company wants the best candidates. Using
tactics such as mass media can grab the attention of prospective recruits.
Human resource management involves developing and administering programs that are designed
to increase the effectiveness of an organization or business. It includes the entire spectrum of
creating, managing, and cultivating the employer-employee relationship.
For most organizations, agencies, and businesses, the human resources department is responsible
for:
• Managing job recruitment, selection, and promotion
• Developing and overseeing employee benefits and wellness programs
• Developing, promoting, and enforcing personnel policies
• Promoting employee career development and job training
• Providing orientation programs for new hires
• Providing guidance regarding disciplinary actions
• Serving as a primary contact for work-site injuries or accidents
Human resource management is about:
Addressing current employee concerns: Unlike company managers who oversee the day-to-day
work of employees, HR departments deal with employee concerns such as benefits, pay,
employee investments, pension plans, and training. Their work may also include settling conflicts
between employees or between employees and their managers.
Acquiring new employees: The human resource management team recruits potential employees,
oversees the hiring process (background checks, drug testing, etc.), and provides new employee
orientation.
Managing the employee separation process: The HR management team must complete a specific
set of tasks if an employee quits, is fired, or is laid off. Paperwork must be completed to ensure
that the process was completed legally. Severance pay may be offered or negotiated, benefits
must be settled, and access to company resources must be severed via the collection of keys,
badges, computers, or sensitive materials from the employee.
Improving morale: Effective HR teams encourage company employees to do their best, which
contributes to the overall success of the company. Their work often involves rewarding employees
for good performance and creating a positive work environment.
The Agenda of Today’s Human Resource Management Team
Today’s HR management team must focus their efforts on five, critical areas, according to the
Forbes article:
Define and align organizational purpose: A company’s employees must be able to clearly
articulate why the company exists in order to achieve a purpose-driven, sustainable, high-
performing organization. Employees must also understand how their efforts connect, or align,
with the organization’s purpose.
Recruit the best talent by creating, marketing, and selling an Employee Value Proposition (EVP):
False marketing and misconceptions about an organization are some of the main reasons why the
employer-employee relationship fails. Therefore, companies must create, market, and sell an EVP
that is true and accurate as to not mislead potential employees.
Focus on employee strengths: Companies must make every effort to understand what candidates
and employees do best and put them into roles where they can play to their strengths as much
as possible.
Create organizational alignment: Achievements must align with the organization’s objectives so
as to build a successful and sustainable organization.
Accurately measure the same things: All internal departments and employees must be measuring
the same things as to achieve a definitive organizational result and to ensure that everyone knows
exactly where the organization is at all times.
RECRUITMENT
Recruitment refers to the overall process of attracting, shortlisting, selecting and appointing suitable
candidates for jobs (either permanent or temporary) within an organization. Recruitment can also
refer to processes involved in choosing individuals for unpaid roles.
Recruitment process is a process of identifying the jobs vacancy, analysing the job requirements,
reviewing applications, screening, shortlisting and selecting the right candidate.
To increase the efficiency of hiring, it is recommended that the HR team of an organization follows
the five best practices (as shown in the following image). These five practices ensure successful
recruitment without any interruptions. In addition, these practices also ensure consistency and
compliance in the recruitment process.
Recruitment Planning
Recruitment planning is the first step of the recruitment process, where the vacant positions are
analysed and described. It includes job specifications and its nature, experience, qualifications and
skills required for the job, etc.
A structured recruitment plan is mandatory to attract potential candidates from a pool of
candidates. The potential candidates should be qualified, experienced with a capability to take the
responsibilities required to achieve the objectives of the organization.
Recruitment Strategy
Recruitment strategy is the second step of the recruitment process, where a strategy is prepared
for hiring the resources. After completing the preparation of job descriptions and job specifications,
the next step is to decide which strategy to adopt for recruiting the potential candidates for the
organization.
While preparing a recruitment strategy, the HR team considers the following points −
• Make or buy employees
• Types of recruitment
• Geographical area
• Recruitment sources
Searching the Right Candidates
Searching is the process of recruitment where the resources are sourced depending upon the
requirement of the job. After the recruitment strategy is done, the searching of candidates will be
initialized. This process consists of two steps −
• Source activation − Once the line manager verifies and permits the existence of the vacancy, the
search for candidates starts.
• Selling − Here, the organization selects the media through which the communication of vacancies
reaches the prospective candidates.
Searching involves attracting the job seekers to the vacancies. The sources are broadly divided
into two categories: Internal Sources and External Sources.
Screening / Shortlisting
Screening starts after completion of the process of sourcing the candidates. Screening is the
process of filtering the applications of the candidates for further selection process.
Screening is an integral part of recruitment process that helps in removing unqualified or irrelevant
candidates, which were received through sourcing. The screening process of recruitment consists
of three steps −
Reviewing of Resumes and Cover Letters
Conducting Telephonic or Video Interview
Identifying the top candidates
Evaluation and Control
Evaluation and control are the last stage in the process of recruitment. In this process, the
effectiveness and the validity of the process and methods are assessed. Recruitment is a costly
process; hence it is important that the performance of the recruitment process is thoroughly
evaluated.

MY WORK AT CONCENTRIX
I did my summer internship in Concentrix for two months i.e. for May and June 2019. The work
experience was great. We gained knowledge of so many things such as how an employee has to
behave in the office and behaviour of candidates whom we used to recruit for the organisation.

what exactly recruitment is and made us familiar with our job profile and our position in the
company i.e., HR EXECUTIVE. To assign us the locations on which we have to work, he took a test
of ours through which he was willing to know our personality and our behaviour. He asked us to
write 10 positive points which we feel we have in ourselves and 10 negative points and also how
much we have understood about our job profile. Our entire day went in this and we were
accompanied by Varun sir the whole day.
DAY 3:
On the third day we met our mentors and team manager. On that day we were allotted with our
locations under different mentors. Company is situated in 13 locations and I was assigned
Bangalore location which is the second most populated location after NCR(Gurgaon) which was
under Mr. Bala Subramanian. I was assigned to see the footfall that means how many candidates
are coming on that specific day and what will be their interview process as per their skills. Half
of our day passed with them and afterword’s we were asked to sit with our mentors and to know
the requirements and work of our specify location. I was briefed by my mentor regarding what
all processes are there and what are its requirements as per the candidate’s skills and what will
be their package.
DAY 4:
From this day we started our main working and I was assigned Bangalore location which was the
second most populated location after NCR(Gurgaon) region. Every location has their own
requirements and if that location is full with the candidates and there is no vacancy for that
specific year then it comes under non hiring zone.
My mentor told me the requirements for every different location and segregated the process
which is followed their:
There are 2 processes in Bangalore which are:
(a) Voice Process
(b) Non-Voice Process
(a) Voice: In voice process the customer care agent have to answer all the questions and
queries of the client through calls. They should have good communication skills and at the
same time good command on their English language and typing speed have to be
maintained.
In this process there is a requirement of international score i.e., in between 3-5 on scale.
(b) Non-Voice: In non-voice process the customer care agent have to answer all the questions
and queries of the client through chats and mails. There is no need of them to talk to the
customers on call that is the reason candidates have to be fast with their typing speed.
In this process there is a requirement of domestic score i.e., in between 2.5 to 2.7 on
scale.

What all levels a candidate has to go through to join the company:
We were HR Executives and the basic screening was done by us. We used to call the candidates
and ask them about their interests in joining the organization and if they agree then we use to
inform them about all the terms and conditions which will be applied to them and the working
conditions in order to make sure they are very well aware about everything.
After this we used to ask them some certain questions, statements, and gave them one or two
topics on which they were asked to speak for a minute or two. On the basis of this we used to
check whether the candidate is fit for which process, either voice or non-voice.
If the candidate is fit for voice profile then we used to conduct their all rounds of assessment on
to the audio and video call. But before we conduct the voice round, we need to make sure that
the candidate doesn’t have Mother Tongue Influence (MTI) which means they have to be clear
with their speech. Whereas if the candidate is fit for non-voice profile, we ask them to come to
their preferred location for the further rounds of assessment.
Before we conduct any further rounds, we used to make sure that the candidate agrees to all the
terms and conditions because if they deny to do the work on the later basis then, that used to
create problem for us because the entire recruitment process suffers hard.
Thus, ensuring security on the candidate’s side was a must as their security meant a complete
joining for the profile and our security was to give them right information as per their job profile.
Below are the statements that were given to candidates for the Voice and Accent Rounds: -

CONCLUSION
During my internship of two months with Concentrix, I learned how to recruit candidates for a BPO
organization and how they get employed in it. I learnt how to deal with different human behaviors
and their perception towards the company. Asking them for joining the organization, doing basic
screening and finally recruiting them for the organization was indeed a complicated job. The
hardest part of my job profile was to make the fresh candidates understand how to attend the
voice and accent rounds in order to get selection for the final interviews.
Recruitment of right candidate for the right place and for the right job profile was my main working
in the organization. Handling a location like Bangalore which was the second most populated
location after Gurgaon wasn’t an easy job as convincing candidates to join the job and for relocating
was difficult. As HR Executive I briefly understood how a human behaves in various situation and
how they agree to join the organization.
Today’s dynamic environment places some expectations upon the HR professional to meet the
changing environment and contingencies these expectations are enlisted as following:
• Understand problems assigned
• Stay competent and professional through study and research
• Maintain high standards of personal honesty and integrity
• Consider the personal interests, welfare, and dignity of all employees affected by
recommendations and actions
• Ensure organizations maintain high regard for public interest and personal interests and
dignity of employees
I also learnt the use of Internet in the Human resource recruitment in order to communicate
with the candidates and to create our image as well. Use of social media and applications
cannot be ignored today.
Lastly, the moto that I learned from my experience at Concentrix is that,
Firstly, Recruit for attitude and train for skill, then Win Customers and build your brand.

  • 7. INTRODUCTION Management is not a new concept to us. Since the times of Ramayana and Mahabharata, we have witnessed its presence. However, earlier management was defined as a person’s quality. This doesn’t ’t surprise us considering the fact that earlier the sons had to follow in their fathers’ footsteps and had to do what their fathers did. The ability of efficient management was considered as a hereditary gift. However, as the world kept evolving, various authors, philosophers and theorists put in a viewpoint that management can be learnt as well. Today, management studies are considered a necessity for the development of small and big organizations and for the growth of great economies. There has been a constant realization by the industries that the current manages are not competent enough to meet the industry requirements as graduates today are more into bookish knowledge. Thus, the education system shifted towards acknowledging the need for practical on-field learning so the study patterns were altered. The new educational pattern in BBA involves the student to undergo an on the field training in an organization under the close supervision of a superior in the organization. This training will help him develop a perspective of wholesome management of business activities and see how they are interrelated. Thus, a student will have on the field knowledge so when he enters the industry, he will provide efficient and skilled management.
  • 8. SYNOPSIS This project was undertaken during my internship at Concentrix for a period of 2 months. I worked on the topic “Human Resource Recruitment” Of Concentrix. The project is focused upon what is the outsourcing and BPO industries and in what all field they deal in. Concentrix, which is also a BPO recruits fresh talent for various other companies. This project is a reflection of what I learnt throughout my internship With Concentrix. It involves the candidate recruitment I did, varying from the local Bangalore cover to the outstation segment of Bangalore, which will help Concentrix with its recruitment in the major location of India. Concentrix deals in recruitment of fresh talent as well as customer interaction and follow back. Recruitment was done for various companies and through various means. This is why I chose Concentrix as I was given the opportunity to interact with customers of all levels and sectors. It provided me with challenges and helped me learn Human Resource behavior. This project is an attempt to understand how a BPO works and recruits’ people from all over the globe. It is not possible to include all the points as Human Resource is a vast subject. I will focus upon the major factors involved. Through this project, I am showcasing what I learnt from my internship.

  • 10. THE OUTSOURCING INDUSTRY OUTSOURCING Outsourcing is an agreement in which one company hires another company to be responsible for a planned or existing activity that is or could be done internally, and sometimes involves transferring employees and assets from one firm to another. Outsourcing is also the practice of handing over control of public services to private enterprises, even if on a short-term limited basis. Outsourcing includes both foreign and domestic contracting, and sometimes includes offshoring (relocating a business function to a distant country) or nearshoring (transferring a business process to a nearby country). BUSINESS PROCESS OUTSOURCING The term Business Process Outsourcing or BPO as it is popularly known, refers to outsourcing in all fields. A BPO service provider usually administers and manages a particular business process for another company. BPOs either use new technology or apply an existing technology in a new way to improve a particular business process. India is currently the number one destination for business process outsourcing, as most companies in the US and UK outsource IT-related business processes to Indian service providers. Amex, British Airways and GE started the outsourcing trend in the early 1990s. The aim was to reduce costs and to minimize efforts spent on non-core activities. It is the delegation of one or more of IT intensive business processes to an external provider, which in turn owns, manages, and administers the selected processes based on defined and measurable performance criteria. BPO as per the work performed can be classified as VOICE BASED, which includes customer related services such as technical support, marketing etc. and NON-VOICE, which includes internal business operations. And as per the location involved it can be classified as: ➢ ON-SHORE: BPO that is contracted inside a company’s country ➢ NEAR-SHORE: BPO that is contracted to a company’s neighbouring country. ➢ OFF-SHORE: BPO that is contracted outside a company’s country.
  • 11. OBJECTIVES OF BPO: Traditionally, the main objective of companies outsourcing their business processes to India was the want of low cost. But now-a-days, companies that offshore their business processes to India are no longer looking at cost reduction alone. They typically want to achieve: 1)Process improvement and efficiency - faster turnaround and greater productivity 2) Cost savings. 3) Improved quality - less errors/rework 4) Building/strengthening presence in a new market/foreign country. 5) Increased focus on core competencies - e.g. developing new products or services 6) Building business value and strategic differentiation.

  • 19. HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT Human resource management (HRM or HR) is the strategic approach to the effective management of people in a company or organization such that they help their business gain a competitive advantage. It is designed to maximize employee performance in service of an employer's strategic objectives. Human resource management is primarily concerned with the management of people within organizations, focusing on policies and systems. HR departments are responsible for overseeing employee-benefits design, employee recruitment, training and development, performance appraisal, and reward management, such as managing pay and benefit systems. HR also concerns itself with organizational change and industrial relations, or the balancing of organizational practices with requirements arising from collective bargaining and governmental laws. The overall purpose of human resources (HR) is to ensure that the organization is able to achieve success through people. HR professionals manage the human capital of an organization and focus on implementing policies and processes. They can specialize in finding, recruiting, training, and developing employees, as well as maintaining employee relations or benefits. Training and development professionals ensure that employees are trained and have continuous development. This is done through training programs, performance evaluations, and reward programs. Employee relations deals with the concerns of employees when policies are broken, such as cases involving harassment or discrimination. Human Resource Management has four basic functions: staffing, training and development, motivation, and maintenance. Staffing is the recruitment and selection of potential employees, done through interviewing, applications, networking, etc. There are two main factors to staffing: attracting talented recruits and hiring resources. HR Managers must create detailed recruitment
  • 20. Strategic and have a plan of action to put forward when recruiting. Next, managers can put strategies into place through hiring resources, by extending out to find the best possible recruits for the team. Recruiting is very competitive since every company wants the best candidates. Using tactics such as mass media can grab the attention of prospective recruits. Human resource management involves developing and administering programs that are designed to increase the effectiveness of an organization or business. It includes the entire spectrum of creating, managing, and cultivating the employer-employee relationship. For most organizations, agencies, and businesses, the human resources department is responsible for: • Managing job recruitment, selection, and promotion • Developing and overseeing employee benefits and wellness programs • Developing, promoting, and enforcing personnel policies • Promoting employee career development and job training • Providing orientation programs for new hires • Providing guidance regarding disciplinary actions • Serving as a primary contact for work-site injuries or accidents Human resource management is about: Addressing current employee concerns: Unlike company managers who oversee the day-to-day work of employees, HR departments deal with employee concerns such as benefits, pay, employee investments, pension plans, and training. Their work may also include settling conflicts between employees or between employees and their managers. Acquiring new employees: The human resource management team recruits potential employees, oversees the hiring process (background checks, drug testing, etc.), and provides new employee orientation. Managing the employee separation process: The HR management team must complete a specific set of tasks if an employee quits, is fired, or is laid off. Paperwork must be completed to ensure that the process was completed legally. Severance pay may be offered or negotiated, benefits must be settled, and access to company resources must be severed via the collection of keys, badges, computers, or sensitive materials from the employee. Improving morale: Effective HR teams encourage company employees to do their best, which contributes to the overall success of the company. Their work often involves rewarding employees for good performance and creating a positive work environment.
  • 21. The Agenda of Today’s Human Resource Management Team Today’s HR management team must focus their efforts on five, critical areas, according to the Forbes article: Define and align organizational purpose: A company’s employees must be able to clearly articulate why the company exists in order to achieve a purpose-driven, sustainable, high- performing organization. Employees must also understand how their efforts connect, or align, with the organization’s purpose. Recruit the best talent by creating, marketing, and selling an Employee Value Proposition (EVP): False marketing and misconceptions about an organization are some of the main reasons why the employer-employee relationship fails. Therefore, companies must create, market, and sell an EVP that is true and accurate as to not mislead potential employees. Focus on employee strengths: Companies must make every effort to understand what candidates and employees do best and put them into roles where they can play to their strengths as much as possible. Create organizational alignment: Achievements must align with the organization’s objectives so as to build a successful and sustainable organization. Accurately measure the same things: All internal departments and employees must be measuring the same things as to achieve a definitive organizational result and to ensure that everyone knows exactly where the organization is at all times.
  • 22. RECRUITMENT Recruitment refers to the overall process of attracting, shortlisting, selecting and appointing suitable candidates for jobs (either permanent or temporary) within an organization. Recruitment can also refer to processes involved in choosing individuals for unpaid roles. Recruitment process is a process of identifying the jobs vacancy, analysing the job requirements, reviewing applications, screening, shortlisting and selecting the right candidate. To increase the efficiency of hiring, it is recommended that the HR team of an organization follows the five best practices (as shown in the following image). These five practices ensure successful recruitment without any interruptions. In addition, these practices also ensure consistency and compliance in the recruitment process. Recruitment Planning Recruitment planning is the first step of the recruitment process, where the vacant positions are analysed and described. It includes job specifications and its nature, experience, qualifications and skills required for the job, etc. A structured recruitment plan is mandatory to attract potential candidates from a pool of candidates. The potential candidates should be qualified, experienced with a capability to take the responsibilities required to achieve the objectives of the organization.
  • 23. Recruitment Strategy Recruitment strategy is the second step of the recruitment process, where a strategy is prepared for hiring the resources. After completing the preparation of job descriptions and job specifications, the next step is to decide which strategy to adopt for recruiting the potential candidates for the organization. While preparing a recruitment strategy, the HR team considers the following points − • Make or buy employees • Types of recruitment • Geographical area • Recruitment sources Searching the Right Candidates Searching is the process of recruitment where the resources are sourced depending upon the requirement of the job. After the recruitment strategy is done, the searching of candidates will be initialized. This process consists of two steps − • Source activation − Once the line manager verifies and permits the existence of the vacancy, the search for candidates starts. • Selling − Here, the organization selects the media through which the communication of vacancies reaches the prospective candidates. Searching involves attracting the job seekers to the vacancies. The sources are broadly divided into two categories: Internal Sources and External Sources. Screening / Shortlisting Screening starts after completion of the process of sourcing the candidates. Screening is the process of filtering the applications of the candidates for further selection process. Screening is an integral part of recruitment process that helps in removing unqualified or irrelevant candidates, which were received through sourcing. The screening process of recruitment consists of three steps − Reviewing of Resumes and Cover Letters Conducting Telephonic or Video Interview Identifying the top candidates Evaluation and Control Evaluation and control are the last stage in the process of recruitment. In this process, the effectiveness and the validity of the process and methods are assessed. Recruitment is a costly process; hence it is important that the performance of the recruitment process is thoroughly evaluated.

  • 32. What all levels a candidate has to go through to join the company: We were HR Executives and the basic screening was done by us. We used to call the candidates and ask them about their interests in joining the organization and if they agree then we use to inform them about all the terms and conditions which will be applied to them and the working conditions in order to make sure they are very well aware about everything. After this we used to ask them some certain questions, statements, and gave them one or two topics on which they were asked to speak for a minute or two. On the basis of this we used to check whether the candidate is fit for which process, either voice or non-voice. If the candidate is fit for voice profile then we used to conduct their all rounds of assessment on to the audio and video call. But before we conduct the voice round, we need to make sure that the candidate doesn’t have Mother Tongue Influence (MTI) which means they have to be clear with their speech. Whereas if the candidate is fit for non-voice profile, we ask them to come to their preferred location for the further rounds of assessment. Before we conduct any further rounds, we used to make sure that the candidate agrees to all the terms and conditions because if they deny to do the work on the later basis then, that used to create problem for us because the entire recruitment process suffers hard. Thus, ensuring security on the candidate’s side was a must as their security meant a complete joining for the profile and our security was to give them right information as per their job profile. Below are the statements that were given to candidates for the Voice and Accent Rounds: - Dear Candidate Congratulations on getting shortlisted for Concentrix. As shared during the campus drive the Final interview will consist of 2 parts: Mentioned as below: 1. English Assessment (Telephonic round) 2. HR round (Telephonic round).

  • 36. CONCLUSION During my internship of two months with Concentrix, I learned how to recruit candidates for a BPO organization and how they get employed in it. I learnt how to deal with different human behaviors and their perception towards the company. Asking them for joining the organization, doing basic screening and finally recruiting them for the organization was indeed a complicated job. The hardest part of my job profile was to make the fresh candidates understand how to attend the voice and accent rounds in order to get selection for the final interviews. Recruitment of right candidate for the right place and for the right job profile was my main working in the organization. Handling a location like Bangalore which was the second most populated location after Gurgaon wasn’t an easy job as convincing candidates to join the job and for relocating was difficult. As HR Executive I briefly understood how a human behaves in various situation and how they agree to join the organization. Today’s dynamic environment places some expectations upon the HR professional to meet the changing environment and contingencies these expectations are enlisted as following: • Understand problems assigned • Stay competent and professional through study and research • Maintain high standards of personal honesty and integrity • Consider the personal interests, welfare, and dignity of all employees affected by recommendations and actions • Ensure organizations maintain high regard for public interest and personal interests and dignity of employees I also learnt the use of Internet in the Human resource recruitment in order to communicate with the candidates and to create our image as well. Use of social media and applications cannot be ignored today. Lastly, the moto that I learned from my experience at Concentrix is that, Firstly, Recruit for attitude and train for skill, then Win Customers and build your brand.
