Mba project on recruitment and selection processAnil Kumar Singh
Abstract: In this research paper, a study hs been made on the recruitment and selection processes between the two different sectors, i.e; Manufacturing sector and Services sector. The study indicates various techniques used by the two companies, that is, Kudos Chemical Limited, that is a manufacturing company and Virasat-e-Khalsa which belongs to the services sector. The study made under observation comprises of the services and guidance of a recruitment agency called Jobachievers, that is functioning from its office at Chandigarh, to provide job opportunities to the dserving candidates, in mostly areas in Punjab.
Index Terms: Recruitment, Selection
1) INTRODUCTION
The two companies undertaken in the project study comprises of a manufacturing firm named KUDOS CHEMICAL LIMITED and a servicing unit named VIRASAT-E-KHALSA. The former is having a chemical base and is in the business of manufacturing “caffeine”.
The latter is a service unit, having the structure of a theme museum, in which the culture of Punjab has been depicted in a versatile manner. Both of the companies need an adequate base of employees, who can carry out the various functions int the firms. Due to the different nature of the working aspects of these two firms, the recruitment and the selection process of both the firms are entirely different.
The only area in which the recruitment process of these two firms concides is that both the firms seeks out the help of recruitment agencies to find the appropriate and deserving candidates for their firms. The project report, hereby, includes my work at such a recruitment agency named “JOBACHIEVERS” under which I studied the recruitment and selection processes of various firms and prepared my project report on the comparison between the recruitment and selection process of a manufacturing firm and a service firm.
The process of recruitment begins with the sending of the “Job description” by the company. The job description is comprising of the following requirements:
1) Position vacant
This very first point, clarifies to the recruiter, for which required position, the candidate is needed. The recruiter then make use of the data that is available to him, or creates new data of the candidates. Since I undergone the training in a job consultancy, there was pre-recorded data already available. Thus, the recruiter can contact the person and can make him attend the scheduled interview for the required post.
2) Examining the Job description
The Job description provided by the company tells the recruiter, the complete insight of the position vacant and also provides the knowledge of what the company is seeking in the required candidate. Understanding the complete JD (Job description) only can help the recruiter to move to the next step. If the recruiter fails to understand the need of the company from the JD provided, then all of the steps undertaken by the recruiter would turn out to be a failure.
It is significant research in the current scenario to investigate into the successful efforts in Recruitment and Promotion.
For complete tools and techniques of innovative Recruitment the reader may like to read Dr. Sibram nisonko's book in Amazon.com/kindle eBooks.
Most employers recognize the fact that their staff is their greatest asset, and the right
Recruitment and induction processes are vital in ensuring that the new employee Becomes
Effective in the shortest time. The success of an organisation depends on having the r light
Number of staff, with the right skills and abilities. Organisations may have a dedicated
Personnel/human resource function overseeing this process, or they may devolve these
Responsibilities to line managers and supervisors. Many people may be involved, and all
Should be aware of the principles of good practice. Even it is essential to involve other s in
The task of recruitment and induction.

Executive Summary
The Human Resource Department is the most important asset of an organization. The success
and failure of an organization largely depends on the caliber of the employees working in.
without a positive and creative contribution from the employee, an organization can’t not
progress and prosper.
In order to achieve the goals of an organization, therefore, we need to recruit people with
requisite skills, qualification and experience. While, doing so we have to keep the present as well
as the future requirement of the organization in mind. Recruitment is defined as ‘a process to
discover the sources of manpower to meet the requirement of staffing schedule and to employ
effective measures for attracting that manpower in adequate numbers to facilitate effective
selection of an efficient workforce. In order to attract people, an organization communicates the
positions in such a way that job seekers respond. To be cost effective, the recruitment process
should attract qualified applicants.
Recruiters work on resumes by actively soliciting qualified individuals for positions. A
recruiter’s job includes reviewing candidates’ job experiences, negotiating salaries and placing
candidates in agreeable employment positions. Recruiters typically receive a fee from hiring
employers.
My research project deals with SOURCING & RECRUITEMENT as carried out by VPS
Consultants which is an consultant HR firm. During the execution of project and research I have
studied and evaluated the souring and recruitment process which was practiced in the
organization. This exposure gave me opportunity to have an insight to their practical application.
I was working under the guidance of HR and was assisting her with the work.
It was a great experience for me to learn and get a real experience of working in a corporate
environment.

Introduction
Human resources is used to describe both the people who work for a company or organization
and the department responsible for managing resources related to employees. The term human
resources was first coined in the 1960s when the value of labor relations began to garner
attention and when notions such as motivation, organizational behavior, and selection
assessments began to take shape. Human resource management is a contemporary, umbrella term
used to describe the management and development of employees in an organization. Also called
personnel or talent management (although these terms are a bit antiquated), human resource
management involves overseeing all things related to managing an organization’s human capital.
Human resource management is therefore focused on a number of major areas, including:
Recruiting and staffing
Compensation and benefits
Training and learning
Labor and employee relations
Organization development
Recruitment is the first step in procurement function. The importance of manpower planning in
every business is increasing due to increase in global competitiveness and increase in labor
market flexibility. Recruitment function is one of the important parts of an organization’s Human
Resource Planning. It serves fulfilling organizations’ need by enabling it to have a set of
competitive, motivated, flexible and more adoptable Human Resources which can ensure
continued operation for fulfillment of organizations’ objective. Competent Human Resources at
the right positions are crucial for the organization and constitute core competency. The
organization reaps strategic advantage out of it. Recruitment helps in creating a pool of
prospective employees for the organizations, so that the right candidates for the right jobs can be
selected from this pool. So it becomes important to understand the process of recruitment.

SWOT Analysis
SWOT analysis is a strategic planning method used to evaluate the Strengths, Weaknesses,
Opportunities and Threats involved in a project in a business venture. It involves specifying the
objectives of the business venture or project, and identifying the internal and external factors that
are favorable and unfavorable to achieve those objectives. A SWOT analysis helps elucidate
strategic advantages. Strengths are attributes of the person or company helpful in achieving the
objective(s), while weaknesses are attributes of a person or company, harmful in achieving the
objective(s).Opportunities are the external conditions, helpful in achieving the objective(s) and
threats are external conditions which could do damage in the objective(s).
For the purpose of SWOT analysis, following methodology was adopted:
A self structured questionnaire was prepared and industry persons were asked to fill it up.
The questionnaire comprised a number of statements related to Strengths, weaknesses,
opportunities and threats, which were identified On the basis of literature review and
informal discussion with the firms Executives.
The respondents were asked to rate these statements on the basis of 5 point liker scale.
The highest rank Five was to be given to the most favored statement and the lowest rank
one was to be attributed to the least preferred statement.
The statistical tool used for the purpose of SWOT analysis was Weighted Mean, Standard
Deviation; and software used was Microsoft Excel.

respondents and then every statement was ranked according to Weighted Mean in order

Introduction to topic
Sourcing and Recruitment
Sourcing is the process of finding resumes within the recruitment process. Recruiters, both third
party and corporate, need to find qualified candidates for their open job orders, oftentimes with
very unique or niche work experience. Sourcing refers to the initial part of recruiting (actually
finding the candidates through a variety of methods.) Some recruiters perform the sourcing
function through to placement; other recruiting professionals specialize in only one aspect of the
recruitment cycle. Professional recruiters who specialize only in the initial procurement of names
and candidates are called sourcers. Many larger companies and specialist staffing firms employ
teams of sourcing professionals that concentrate only on the initial procurement of candidates.
The sourcers then “hand off” the candidates to a different department of team of recruiters which
handle qualification, interview, and placement.
Different ways of Sourcing
22. 22
Sourcing candidates through a recruiting database
Of course, many hiring authorities and recruiters (both in-house and third-part) maintain their
own recruiting database of candidates. When these hiring authorities and recruiters have a job
order, they often automatically check their own database first as a way of sourcing candidates.
Of course, the better your recruiting applicant tracking system is, the more quickly you’ll find
the candidates you need.
Sourcing candidates through social media
LinkedIn has become all the rage during the last several years, as countless companies and
recruiters have added it to their talent sourcing strategy. They “camp out” within the social media
platform on an almost daily, hoping to source high-quality candidates and then recruit them.
While it’s true that they also use other social media platforms for sourcing, LinkedIn is most
definitely the most effective and most popular method of sourcing candidates through social
media.
Sourcing candidates through online job postings
It seems almost everybody does this, right? Well, while just about every company does it, not all
recruiters do. There is still a contingent of search consultants that refuse to add job posting
boards and job board integration to their candidate sourcing methods. One reason is that online
23. 23
job postings usually attract active job seekers but aren’t great passive recruiting strategies. The
latter are usually top performers at their current employer, are busy and compensated well, and
aren’t even looking at online job postings.
So do job boards really work? The effectiveness of this candidate sourcing method depends on
who you ask. In addition to searching candidates that have applied to job board postings, try
a Google resume search. Many people, especially in the tech space, will have their own websites
that frequently host an updated copy of their resume.
Sourcing candidates via referrals
Now this is one of the old-school sourcing strategies for recruiters that never actually get old.
That’s because it’s so darn effective. Organizations have official employee referral programs
whereby employees are paid a referral bonus if they refer a candidate who is actually hired.
Recruiters also employ such methods of sourcing. Offering a referral fee to candidates that
suggest friends or colleagues that are later placed successfully is a very viable technique. The
best place to find more candidates like the one you just placed is to ask that individual who they
know.
Sourcing candidates from within the organization
This is a technique that organizations often employ, especially if they’re heavy into succession
planning. Of course, with this method, the organization does not need the services of a third-
party recruiter. That’s because the talent is right there within the company. However, the talent
still needs to be convinced to make a move, even though it’s with their current employer.
Sourcing candidates through a recruiter network
We are currently in the midst of a “candidate’s” market.” That means candidates have the upper
hand in the marketplace. That means the really good candidates are interviewing with more than
one company, they’re often receiving multiple offers of employment, and they have plenty of
options from which to choose. On the other hand, we have hiring managers and authorities who
24. 24
never seem to find the candidate they want. A recruiting network can provide a solution, since
the recruiters within the network share candidates and job orders.
Recruitment
Recruitment (hiring) refers to the overall process of attracting, short listing, 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.
Managers, human resource generalists and recruitment specialists may be tasked with carrying
out recruitment, but in some cases public-sector employment agencies, commercial recruitment
agencies, or specialist search consultancies are used to undertake parts of the process. Internet-
based technologies to support all aspects of recruitment have become widespread.
Process of Recruitment
25. 25
Recruiting employees whose talents are aligned with business goals is critical to the success of
an organization. As such, human resources recruiters are highly valued in virtually all
organizations and businesses. In simplest terms, human resources recruiters develop and
implement recruiting plans and strategies designed to fulfill company staffing needs.
As part of a human resources team, recruiters (also known as corporate recruiters and internal
recruiters) are responsible for leading the staffing efforts of a company and building a strong
workforce that adds to the company’s bottom line. These highly skilled and often equally highly
educated HR professionals possess knowledge of employment and labor law, have a deep
understanding of the organization and its staffing needs, and possess strong interpersonal and
communication skills.
Most organizations view recruiters as being responsible for the entire recruiting cycle. In other
words, these professionals are called upon to find potential candidates, screen them, and
recommend them for placement. The process of recruiting may involve both internal and external
sourcing methods, thereby requiring these HR professionals to be adept at understanding where
and how to locate candidates.
The Recruiting Process
The process of recruiting is a creative one, as it involves using both traditional and non-
traditional resources and a network of established contacts to identify and attract talent.
Resources often include community networking events, job fairs, online sources, career fairs, and
advertising/marketing programs. Recruiting may also involve headhunting, a term used to
describe finding candidates who are currently employed and convincing them to change
employers. The process of headhunting is usually reserved for recruiters seeking to fill
professional and executive-level positions.
However, a recruiter’s role does not end with the discovery of potential candidates. In fact, these
HR professionals must then engage in a number of subsequent activities:
26. 26
Candidate Screening: Recruiters are responsible for screening resumes to determine
which candidates meet the minimum requirements. Recruiters then move chosen
candidates on to the next step in the hiring process.
Interviewing: In some organizations, recruiters are responsible for conducting initial
interviews, which are then used to narrow the number of potential candidates who will be
interviewed by the hiring manager. Often times, recruiters will set up interview
appointments between the chosen candidates and the hiring manager.
Reference and Background Checks: After interviews have taken place and the hiring
manager expresses an interest to hire a candidate, the recruiter is often called upon to
coordinate the reference and background checks. Recruiters are often responsible for
conducting reference checks by verifying employment information and contacting the
professional and personal contacts provided by the candidate.
