A STUDY ON PROCESS C.S.Gowtham Chakravarthy1, Poornima2 Assistant Professor1, Student2, Department of Management Studies1,2 BIST, BIHER, Bharath University, Chennai [email protected]

INTRODUCTION The human resources are the most important assets of an organization. The success or failure of an organization is largely dependent on the caliber of the people working therein. Without positive and creative contributions from people, organizations cannot progress and prosper. In order to achieve the goals or the activities of an organization, therefore, they need to recruit people with requisite skills, qualifications and experience. While doing so, they have to keep the present as well as the future requirements of the organization in mind[1-5]. Recruitment is distinct from and Selection. Once the required number and kind of human resources are determined, the management has to find the places where the required human resources are/will be available and also find the means of attracting them towards the organization before selecting suitable candidates for . All this process is generally known as recruitment. Some people use the term “Recruitment” for employment. These two are not one and the same. Recruitment is only one of the steps in the entire employment process. Some others use the term recruitment for selection. These are not the same either. Technically speaking[6-12], the function of recruitment precedes the selection function and it includes only finding, developing the sources of prospective employees and attracting them to apply for jobs in an organization, whereas the selection is the process of finding out the most suitable candidate to the out of the candidates attracted (i.e., recruited).Formal definition of recruitment would give clear cut idea about the function of recruitment NEED FOR STUDY: To study and analyze the recruiting process and analyzing the pros and cons of the recruitment process in Bharat fritz Werner ltd. In order to have effective recruitment process in company

Recruitment process has been regarded as the most important functions of personal administration because if the right type of people is not hired, even the best plans of the organization charts and control system would not do much good[13-14] DEFINITIONS Recruitment is defined as, “a process to discover the sources of manpower to meet the requirements of the staffing and to employ effective measures for attracting that manpower in adequate numbers to facilitate effective selection of an efficient workforce.” Edwin B. Flippo defined recruitment as “the process of searching for prospective employees and stimulating them to apply for jobs in the organization.” Recruitment is a „linking function‟- joining together those with jobs to fill and those seeking jobs. It is a „joining process‟ in that it tries to bring together job seekers and employer with a view to encourage the former to apply for a job with the latter. In order to attract people for the jobs, the organization must communicate the position in such a way that job seekers respond. To be cost effective, the recruitment process should attract qualified applicants and provide enough information for unqualified persons to self-select themselves out. Thus, the recruitment process begins when new recruits are sought and ends when their applications are submitted. The result is a pool of applicants from which new employees are selected[15-19]. PURPOSES AND IMPORTANCE The general purpose of recruitment is to provide a pool of potentially qualified job candidates. Specifically, the purposes are to:  Determine the present and future requirements of the organization in conjunction with its personnel-planning and job-analysis activities.  Increase the pool of job candidates at minimum cost.  Help increase the success rate of the selection process by reducing the number of visibly, under qualified or overqualified job applicants.  Help reduce the probability that job applicants, once recruited and selected, will leave the organization only after a short period of time.  Begin identifying and preparing potential job applicants who will be appropriate candidates.

3942 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue

 Induct outsiders with a new perspective to lead the company.  Infuse fresh blood at all levels of the organization.  Develop an organizational culture that attracts competent people to the company.  Search or head hunt/head pouch people whose skills fit the company‟s values.  Devise methodologies for assessing psychological traits.  Search for talent globally and not just within the company.  Design entry pay that competes on quality but not on quantum.  Anticipate and find people for positions that do not exist yet.  Increase organizational and individual effectiveness in the short term and long term.  Evaluate the effectiveness of various recruiting techniques and sources for all types of job applicants. Recruitment represents the first contact that a company makes with potential employees. It is through recruitment that many individuals will come to know a company, and eventually decide whether they wish to work for it. A well-planned and well-managed recruiting effort will result in high-quality applicants, whereas, a haphazard and piecemeal effort will result in mediocre ones. High-quality employees cannot be selected when better candidates do not know of job openings, are not interested in working for the company and do not apply. The recruitment process should inform qualified individuals about employment opportunities, create a positive image of the company, provide enough information about the jobs so that applicants can make comparisons with their qualifications and interests, and generate enthusiasm among the best candidates so that they will apply for the vacant positions[20-24]. The negative consequences of a poor recruitment process speak volumes about its role in an organization. The failure to generate an adequate number of reasonably qualified applicants can prove costly in several ways. It can greatly complicate the selection process and may result in lowering of selection standards. The poor quality of selection means extra cost on and supervision. Furthermore, when recruitment fails to meet the organizational needs for talent, a typical response is to raise entry-level pay scales. This can distort traditional and relationships in the organization, resulting in avoidable consequences. Thus, the effectiveness of a recruitment process can play a major role in determining the resources that must be expended on other HR activities and their ultimate success[25-29].

SUB-SYSTEMS OF RECRUITMENT The recruitment process consists of the following four sub-functions:-  Finding out and developing the sources where the required number and kind of employees will be available.  Developing suitable techniques to attract the desirable candidates.  Employing the techniques to attract candidates.  Stimulating as many candidates as possible and asking them to apply for jobs irrespective of the number of candidates required. Management has to attract more candidates in order to increase the selection ratio so that the most suitable candidate can be selected out of the total candidates available. Recruitment is positive as it aims at increasing the number of applicants and selection is somewhat negative as it selects the suitable candidates in which process[30-34]; the unsuitable candidates are automatically eliminated. Though, the function of recruitment seems to be easy, a number of factors make performance of recruitment a complex one. FACTORS AFFECTING RECRUITMENT The following are the 2 important factors affecting Recruitment:- INTERNAL FACTORS  Recruiting policy  Temporary and part-time employees  Recruitment of local citizens  Engagement of the company in HRP  Company‟s size  Cost of recruitment  Company‟s growth and expansion EXTERNAL FACTORS  Supply and Demand factors  Rate  Labour-market conditions  Political and legal considerations  Social factors

3944 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue

 Economic factors  Technological factors SOURCES OF RECRUITMENT The sources of recruitment may be broadly divided into two categories: internal sources and external sources. Both have their own merits and demerits. Let‟s examine these. Internal Sources:- Persons who are already working in an organization constitute the „internal sources‟. Retrenched employees, retired employees, dependents of deceased employees may also constitute the internal sources. Whenever any vacancy arises, someone from within the organization is upgraded, transferred, promoted or even demoted[35-39]. External Sources External sources lie outside an organization. Here the organization can have the services of : (a) Employees working in other organizations; (b) Jobs aspirants registered with employment exchanges; (c) Students from reputed educational institutions; (d) Candidates referred by unions, friends, relatives and existing employees; (e) Candidates forwarded by search firms and contractors; (f) Candidates responding to the advertisements, issued by the organization; and (g) Unsolicited applications/ walk-ins.

METHODS OF RECRUITMENT The following are the most commonly used methods of recruiting people. INTERNAL METHODS: 1. Promotions and Transfers This is a method of filling vacancies from within through transfers and promotions. A transfer is a lateral movement within the same grade, from one job to another. It may lead to changes in duties and responsibilities, working conditions, etc., but not necessarily salary. Promotion, on the other hand, involves movement of employee from a lower level position to a higher level position accompanied by (usually) changes in duties, responsibilities, status and value. Organisations generally prepare badli lists or a central pool of persons from which vacancies can be filled for manual jobs. Such persons are usually passed on to various departments, depending on internal requirements. If a person remains on such rolls for 240 days or more, he gets the status of a permanent

3945 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue

employee as per the Industrial Disputes Act and is therefore entitled to all relevant benefits, including provident fund, gratuity, retrenchment compensation. 2. Job Posting Job posting is another way of hiring people from within. In this method, the organisation publicises job opening on bulletin boards, electronic method and similar outlets. One of the important advantages of this method is that it offers a chance to highly qualified applicants working within the company to look for growth opportunities within the company to look for growth opportunities within the company without looking for greener pastures outside[40-42]. 3. Employee Referrals Employee referral means using personal contacts to locate job opportunities. It is a recommendation from a current employee regarding a job applicant. The logic behind employee referral is that “it takes one to know one”. Employees working in the organization, in this case, are encouraged to recommend the names of their friends, working in other organizations for a possible vacancy in the near future. In fact, this has become a popular way of recruiting people in the highly competitive Information Technology industry nowadays. Companies offer rich rewards also to employees whose recommendations are accepted – after the routine screening and examining process is over – and job offers extended to the suggested candidates. As a goodwill gestures, companies also consider the names recommended by unions from time to time. External (direct) Methods Campus Recruitment It is a method of recruiting by visiting and participating in college campuses and their placement centres. Here the recruiters visit reputed educational institutions such as IITs, IIMs, colleges and universities with a view to pick up job aspirants having requisite technical or professional skills. Job seekers are provided information about the jobs and the recruiters, in turn, get a snapshot of job seekers through constant interchange of information with respective institutions. A preliminary screening is done within the campus and the short listed students are then subjected to the remainder of the selection process. In view of the growing demand for young managers, most reputed organizations (such as Hindustan Lever Ltd., Proctor &

3946 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue

Cable, Citibank, State Bank of India, Tata and Birla group companies) visit IIMs and IITs regularly and even sponsor certain popular campus activities with a view to earn goodwill in the job market. Advantages of this method include: the placement centre helps locate applicants and provides resumes to organizations; applicants can be prescreened; applicants will not have to be lured away from a current job and lower salary expectations. On the negative front, campus recruiting means hiring people with little or no work experience[43-45]. The organizations will have to offer some kind of training to the applicants, almost immediately after hiring. It demands careful advance planning, looking into the placement weeks of various institutions in different parts of the country. Further, campus recruiting can be costly for organizations situated in another city (airfare, boarding and lodging expenses of recruiters, site visit of applicants if allowed, etc.). If campus recruitment is used, steps should be taken by human resource department to ensure that recruiters are knowledgeable concerning the jobs that are to be filled and the organizations and understand and employ effective interviewing skills. Guidelines for campus recruiting: companies using college campuses as recruitment source should consider the following guidelines:  Identify the potential candidates early: The earlier that candidate with top potential can be identified, the more likely the organization will be in a position to attract them.  Employ various means to attract candidates: These may include providing research grants; consulting opportunities to faculty members, funding university infrastructural requirements, to students, etc. in the long run these will enhance the prestige of the company in the eyes of potential job seekers.  Use effective recruitment material: Attractive brochures, films, computer diskettes, followed by enthusiastic and effective presentations by company officials, correspondence with placement offices in respective campus in a friendly way – will help in booting the company image in the eyes of the applicants. The company must provide detailed information about the characteristics of entry – level positions, especially those that have had a major positive impact on prior applicants‟ decisions to join the company.

3947 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue

 Offer training to campus interviews: Its better to devote more time and resources to train on campus interviewers to answer specific job –related questions of applicants.  Come out with a competitive offer: Keep the key job attributes that influence the decisions of applicants such as promotional avenues, challenging assignments, long term income potential, etc., while talking to candidates[14].

Indirect methods:- Advertisements:- These include advertisements in newspapers; trade, professional and technical journals; radio and television; etc. in recent times, this medium has become just as colourful, lively and imaginative as consumer advertising. The ads generally give a brief outline of the job responsibilities, compensation package, prospects in organizations, etc. this method is appropriate when (a) the organization intends to reach a large target group and (b) the organizations wants a fairly good number of talented people – who are geographically spread out. To apply for advertised vacancies let‟s briefly examine the wide variety of alternatives available to a company - as far as ads are concerned:  Newspaper Ads: Here it is easy to place job ads without much of a lead time. It has flexibility in terms of information and can conveniently target a specific geographic location. On the negative side, newspaper ads tend to attract only those who are actively seeking employment at that point of time, while some of the best candidates who are well paid and challenged by their current jobs may not be aware of such openings. As a result, the company may be bombarded with applications from a large number of candidates who are marginally qualified for the job – adding to its administrative burden. To maintain secrecy for various reasons (avoiding the rush, sending signals to competitors, cutting down expenses involved in responding to any individual who applies, etc.), large companies with a national reputation may also go in for blind-box ads in newspapers[15,16,2,3], especially for filling lower level positions. In a blind-box ad there is no identification of the advertising organization. Job aspirants are asked to respond to a post office box number or to an employment firm that is acting as an agent between the job seekers and the organization.

3948 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue

 Television and radio ads: These ads are more likely to each individual who are not actively seeking employment; they are more likely to stand out distinctly, they help the organization to target the audience more selectively and they offer considerable scope for designing ads creatively. However, these ads are expensive. Also, because the television or radio is simply seen or heard, potential candidates may have a tough time remembering the details, making application difficult.

OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY This study has been undertaken to know:  The recruitment process adopted in BFW  To study various activities involved in the recruitment process  To identify the problems in recruitment process RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

Research includes scientific and inductive thinking which promotes the development if logical habits of thinking and organization. It has specific significance in solving various operational and planning problems of business and industry. A research design is purely and simply the framework or plan for a study that guides the collection and analysis of data. It is a blue print that followed in completing a study. Research design adapted for the purpose of this study has been Descriptive in nature. The conclusion has been drawn by making a detailed analysis of whole data collected for the purpose study from existing respondents[37-41]. INTRODUCTION Research methodology is a systematic way that solves the research problem. It may be understood as a science of studying how research is done scientifically. It is we study the various steps that are generally adopted by a researcher in studying the research problem along with the logic behind them. It is necessary for the researcher to know not only the research methods or techniques but also methodology. Researcher need to know how to develop the tests, how to calculate the mean, how to apply research techniques which are relevant and which not the knowledge of research methodology provides tools to take things objectively. RESEARCH DESIGN

3949 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue

Research design is a plan of action that guides the entire research. There are four types of research design: a) Exploratory research design b) Descriptive research design c) Diagnostic research study d) Experimental research design In my study Descriptive Research has been adopted. Descriptive research includes surveys and fact-finding enquiries of different kinds. The major purpose of descriptive research is description of the state of affairs, as it exists at present. In other terms, the term Ex-post facto research is used for descriptive research studies. The main characteristic of this method is that the researcher has no control over the variables; the researcher can only report what has happened or what is happening. It also includes attempts by researchers to discover causes even when researchers cannot control the variables. The methods of research utilized in descriptive research are survey methods of all kinds, including comparative and correlation methods RESEARCH APPROACH In my project, I have used 1) Simple category scale: (Dichotomous) If offers two mutually exclusive response choices („yes‟ and „no‟) Or („important‟ and „unimportant‟) or ( “agree” and “disagree” ) 2) Multiple – choice: It consists of multiple options for the rather but only one answer is sought. 3) Likert scale: The Likert scale developed by Rensis Liker‟s. It is a „5‟ point scale. Likert scale also uses „7‟ and „9‟ scale points. A scale value 1 indicated a strongly unfavorable attitude, ( strongly disagree) similarly, 2 ( disagree ), 3 ( neutral ), 4 ( agree ) and 5 ( strongly agree ). 4) Sampling : The sample size taken for the study is 100 out of 550 universal sampling. “The basic idea of sampling is that by selecting same of the elements in a population. We may draw conclusions about the entire population”

3950 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue

In My project, I have used “SIMPLE RANDOM SAMPLING” What Is Simple Random Sampling “Each population element has an equal chance of being selected in to the sample. Sample drawn using Random number. PRE-TESTING Pre-testing, as it is known is a method which has to be followed strictly. Once questionnaire is drafted it should be field tested before finalizing. PERIOD OF STUDY Period of study is from January 2011 to March 2011 What is questionnaire? “Selecting questions begins once you develop a complete list of investigative question and decide on the collection processes to be used” The alternative term for the questionnaire is interview schedules. SOURCE OF DATA 1. Primary data. The primary data for this study is collected through questionnaires closed questions and open- ended questions were used. 2. Secondary data. The secondary data for this study was obtained from the official records of the organization. This includes by and large the printed and published material relevant to this study such as broachers and website displays. STATISTICAL TOOL: PERCENTAGE METHOD: This is one of the widely used methods to analyze the collected data. The percentage method is calculated by number of respondents divided by total number of respondents, which is multiplied by 100. Percentage analysis: No. Of Respondents 100 Total no. of. Respondents LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY  The sample was collected and restricted to plant office only.  The survey was restricted to a sample size and hence the results cannot by generalized.
