INTRODUCTION RESOURCE MANAGEMENT Resource management is the efficient and effective development of an organization's resources when they are needed. Such resources may include financial resources, inventory, human skills, production resources, or information technology . Resource management is a key element to activity resource estimating and project human resource management. Resource management includes planning, allocating and scheduling of resources to tasks, which typically include manpower, machines, money and materials. Resource management has an impact on schedules and budgets as well as resource leveling and smoothing. RECRUITMENT Recruitment is a core function of human resource management. Recruitment refers to the overall process of attracting, selecting and appointing suitable candidates for jobs within an organization. Recruitment can also refer to processes involved in choosing individuals for unpaid positions, such as voluntary roles or unpaid trainee 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. Recruitment is concerned with reaching out, attracting, and ensuring a supply of qualified personnel and making out selection of requisite manpower both in their quantitative and qualitative aspect. It is the development and maintenance of adequate man- power resources. This is the first stage of the process of selection and is completed with placement. 2 CHARACTERISTICS OF RECRUITMENT 1. Drive/passion :- Liking the job you are applying for is paramount and something recruiters are always looking for. Show and prove your drive for the role and/or the field you are applying for. Always be prepared to pitch yourself, this shows your drive in the role you are applying for. 2. Communication skills:- People often make the mistake by thinking this skill is related to how good they are able to talk about their background and expertise. This is important, but as least as important is it that you listen well to questions that are asked. Make sure you answer to the point and ask questions if you want questions to be clarified. This shows your interest in the role and the ability to communicate clearly. This also helps you building trust with the recruiter every time you speak to him/her. 3. Confidence:- Recruiters are looking for the best candidate for the job. So if you don’t think you are the best candidate why should the recruiter? Show with confidence, without being arrogant (think about building trust), why you are the right person for the job. Confidence also shows in your answers to difficult questions. Be confident enough to explain why some experiences went wrong and how you learnt from them.

    Greetings from Management Association GFGC Punjalakatte Welcome to the 2nd issue of volume 1 of Arthapunja. Apart from being a critical driver of economic growth, Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) is a major source of non-debt financial resource for the economic development of India. Foreign companies invest in India to take advantage of relatively lower wages, special investment privileges such as tax exemptions, etc. For a country where foreign invest- ments are being made, it also means achieving technical know-how and generating em- ployment. The Indian government’s favorable policy regime and robust business environment have ensured that foreign capital keeps flowing into the country. The government has taken many initiatives in recent years such as relaxing FDI norms across sectors such as defense, PSU oil refineries, telecom, power exchanges, and stock exchanges, among oth- ers. Corporate Idol of this issue is OYO Rooms founder and CEO Ritesh Agarwal, Fin term is Family of funds, Trend plot is focusing on Geographical Indications of Karnataka state. We seek for your valuable feedback and effective suggestions at [email protected] Thanks & Regards, Editorial Team OYO Rooms founder and CEO Ritesh Agarwal may seem young for a successful entrepreneur, but this shouldn’t surprise anyone who knows him. Agarwal began coding software at just eight- years-old, and by thirteen had his own SIM card-selling enter- prise. At 17, he authored The Encyclopedia of Indian Engineering Colleges, which went on to garner massive sales. That same year, he joined Worth Growth Partners as the youngest CEO in India. Though he would go broke soon after, he remained undeterred in his passion for entrepreneurship.
