PREFACE :
Everything you need to know about the recruitment and selection process in HRM.
Recruitment & selection is one of the important aspects of human resource planning.
Human resource planning ensures that right kind and right quality of employees are
employed so as to achieve the organizational goals.
Recruitment helps in creating a pool of suitable and interested job applicants, out of
which few are chosen for the further selection process. Hence, it forms a base for
selection process. If the recruitment process is carried out properly, it will help in
employing workforce that suits the organizational requirements.
Selection of candidates begins where their recruitment ends. In other words, it is only
after an adequate number of applications have been secured through different sources
of recruitment – internal or external that the process of selection begins.
Recruitment and selection process is important for an organization to achieve its goals.
When the right people are selected, the employee will produce productive results and
stay with the organisation longer hence having a low employee turnover. If selection is
not carefully done, the employee may make mistake which leads to a financial loss. It
also wastes the time of human resource managers to go through the recruitment and
selection process again.
Literature Review :
Most employers recognized the fact that there staff is there 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 organization depends on
having the right no. of staff, with the right skills and abilities. Organizations may have
dedicated personnel/human resource function over seeing this process or they may
devolve these responsibilities to the line manager and supervisor. Many people may be
involve, and all should be aware of the principles of good practice. Even it is essential to
involve others in the task of recruitment and selection.
According to Robins, in his study revealed that, “the ideal recruitment effort will attract a
large numbers of qualified applicants who will take the job if it is offered. So recruiting is
a process of discovering the potential candidates for actual organizational vacancies”.
Bowen, et al (2003), in his study examined, “that integrated recruitment and selection
process helps recruiters to choose the candidates to fit the characteristics of an
organization culture”.
I take this opportunity to thank INTERNITY FOUNDATION for giving me the opportunity
to work for this project and I would like to express my sincere thanks to Mr. Avanish
Pandey (Lead Community Manager) who helped, inspired and mentored me and
without their help this project report would not have taken its current shape. A deep
sense of gratitude to Mr. Santosh (CEO), Mr. Rishabh (CEO), Mr. Sunil (Co.Founder),
Mrs. Sangya (Company Partner) on their careful and precious guidance. Under their
brilliant untiring guidance I could complete the project being undertaken on the “Study
of Talent Acquisition process of the Internity Foundation” successfully in time.
Their meticulous attention and invaluable suggestions have helped me in simplifying the
problem involved in the work. I would also like to thank the overwhelming support of all
the people who gave me an opportunity to learn and gain knowledge about the various
aspects of industry.

PROJECT OVERVIEW :
The whole process of recruitment from a recruitment firm like Internity Foundation is
very exhausting one. It is detail oriented in nature. The reason why every employee gets
motivated to do the job is because the knowledge at that particular moment that
particular recruiter was responsible for giving jobs to these candidates. To generate
employment is one thing but to recruit the right kind of for workforce for a job is another
thing. It not only need the basic understanding of the client company’s need to fill the
position in a period of time but it also requires the recruiter to be sensitive of the needs
of the candidate to find the right job for himself. All this needs a great profundity of
intellect.
RECRUITMENT:
As we know that human resource is a vital part of any organisation and to ensure the
regular supply of personnel in an organisation, recruitment is a significant step.
Following are some of the objectives which justify the need for recruitment for
any business:
While the recruitment process is unique to each organization, there are 15 essential
steps of the hiring process. We’ve listed them here, but for a detailed exploration of
these steps, check out our page on Hiring Process Steps:
TYPES OF RECRUITING:
Retained Recruiting: When organization hire a recruiting firm, there are several ways
to do so; retained recruiting is a common one. When an organization retains a recruiting
firm to fill a vacancy, they pay an upfront fee to fill the position. The firm is responsible
for finding candidates until the position is filled. The organization also agrees to work
exclusively with the firm. Companies cannot, in other words, hire multiple recruiting
firms to fill the same position.
Staffing Recruiting: Staffing recruiters work for staffing agencies. Staffing recruiting
matches qualified applicants with qualified job openings. Moreover, staffing agencies
typically focus on short-term or temporary employment positions.
Look internally before externally: There’s a good chance the best candidate
for your position is already working for your organization. Internal candidates are
already familiar with and contributing to your corporate culture and goals. Given
their past success within your organization, it is reasonable to expect they will
continue to excel in a new position.
Reach out to “passive” candidates: There is a good chance your ideal
candidate is not actively looking for a new job and will not respond to your job
board ad. Why? Because they’re likely already employed elsewhere. After all,
why wouldn’t your competitors also want to employ your ideal candidate?
Therefore, effective recruiting requires you to look outside of your applicant pool
for top talent. Encouraging your staff to attend industry conferences and
participate in professional organizations; developing relationships with local
university business schools (or other relevant departments); searching social
media sites (i.e. LinkedIn) for strong resumes from candidates who might not be
actively looking for a new job; and encouraging your employees to refer people
they know or are connected to are all important mechanisms through which to
expand your recruitment network.
Hire the sure thing: According to two authors and experts, you should hire the
person who is already excelling doing the exact job in your industry. Past
success, in other words, is the best indicator of future success.
SELECTION:
Selection is the process of picking or choosing the right candidate, who is most suitable
for a vacant job position in an organization. In others words, selection can also be
explained as the process of interviewing the candidates and evaluating their qualities,
which are required for a specific job and then choosing the suitable candidate for the
position.
The selection of a right applicant for a vacant position will be an asset to the
organization, which will be helping the organization in reaching its objectives.
IMPORTANCE OF SELECTION :
Selection is often a string of barriers; everyone should be certified well before the
candidate proceeds to the next. The figure below summarizes the significant steps in
the process of selection in a company. The time and significance depend on every level
and will differ from one company to another and undeniably from job to job within the
same company. The arrangement of steps can also vary from job to job and company to
company.
For instance, few companies may emphasize testing, whereas others may prioritize
interviews and reference checks. In a like manner, a single concise selection interview
might be sufficient for candidates for low-level posts, whereas the various number of
peoples might interrogate candidates for administrative jobs.
Similarity between recruitment and selection include the fact that both are aimed at
hiring suitable candidates.
RECRUITMENT POLICY
Recruitment Policy asserts the objectives of the recruitment and provides a framework
of implementation of the recruitment program in the form of procedures.
It ensures that every applicant and employee is treated equally with dignity and
respect.
As business these days grow on a confounding rate, outsourcing the basic functions like
recruiting becomes a common thing. The need for flexi staffing is on demand and in
such a scenario Internity Foundation renders these services to its clients.
1. Initialization
2. Transition
3. Operations
4. Relationship Management
PREPARATION
It is a written record of the requirements sought in an individual worker for a given job.
In other words, it refers to a summary of the personal characteristics required for a job.
Once the agent knows what the job is, then he can decide what kind of person he/she
would need to do it. Sometimes the job specification is already prepared and given by
the client along with the job description. In such case, the job of the agents becomes
easier. The job specification os for the benefits of the employees working in Internity
Foundation. It is ready reference to check on the requirements that one needs to keep
in mind while sourcing for the different clients. Sometimes the agent has to make JS by
their own.
Sourcing :
Sourcing is defined as the process wherein the recruiter creates a pool of potential
candidates to fill up a position. It is the step of recruitment. Sourcing involves logging on
to job portal and doing a search for the potential candidates. Job portals like Linkedin,
Angellist, etc. After the search is generated, the most critical part of sourcing starts :
1. Analyze the Curriculum Vitae (CV): Now is the time to scrutinize the
candidate’s resume. A good CV is one which is precise and presentable. It
should contain all details of education and work experienced should be arranged
in reversed chronological method so as to emphasize on the most recent one.
Analyzing a CV helps in shortlisting a candidate.
2. Match the JD and JS: When CV has been analyzed and is considered as a
good one, the next step is to match it with the job description. It is necessary to
match it with the profile given by the company. Matching it with JD gives an idea
if the person will be able to serve well in the position or not. Then match it with
the job specification. The JS gives the details of the desired skills and the
mandatory skills.
3. Shortlist the candidate: Once the CV has been matched with JD and JS. CV
can shortlisted. Such a candidate is then called in for interview.
INTERVIEW :
The interview is the most critical component of the entire selection process.
In interview, the gaps that seem in the resume are also questioned. Some of the
objectives of interview are :
SPECIFIC QUESTIONS :
This community rises to fill the hidden gaps which a student experiences in the learning
methodologies. The talent of the students in the colleges do not get a way out to explore
and excel due to these hidden gaps like lack of guidance, resources, exposure, their
learning environment, the tendency of resisting any change even for their betterment.
The team has come up with a structure to let the students achieve what they have
dreamt of.
The learning cannot be uplifted just by enrolling a structure, it requires practice and
efforts of the students. The structure will make the students change ready to face the
upcoming challenges. We believe that together we can make the Indian learning system
a platform where every student has the chance to showcase his/her talent.
