ABSTRACT
“A STUDY ON
EFFECTIVENESS
OF
RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION PROCESS” in SPi technologies was used to study the existing recruitment and selection process and various factor
involved in it.
Both primary and secondary sources were used to collect data. The primary data is collected from both employers and employees of SPi technologies through a well constructed questionnaire.
The secondary data was collected from various journals, maga ines, articles, various sites and company records.
!rom the analysis it was inferred that the organi ation gave preference to internal sources rather than external sources. Some of the employees felt that the company would still fasten the process.
!rom the study it was found that the employers and employees are satisfied with their present recruitment and selection process
CHAPTER-I INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY The study was conducted in SPi T"#$%&'&()"S, Puducherry to find the effectiveness of recruitment and selection process. *ecruitment and selection process is a crucial factor in any organi ation for selecting the right person for the right job. The study intends to find how effectively recruitment and selection process followed in the organi ation. The study on effectiveness of recruitment and selection process provides the organi ation to +now how effectively the process is going on because attrition rate is one of the major factors in call centers.
CHAPTER - II REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE 2.1 Recru !"e#! De$ # ! %# Recru !"e#! refers to the process of finding possible candidates for a job or function, usually underta+en by recruiters. )t also may be underta+en by an employment agency or a member of staff at the business or organi ation loo+ing for recruits. ,dvertising is commonly part of the recruiting process, and can occur through several means through online, newspapers, using newspaper dedicated to job advertisement, through professional publication, using advertisements placed in windows, through a job center, through campus interviews, etc. 2.1.1 Recru !"e#! Me&# #' "mploying the right staff is an important human resource challenge faced by all employers. *ecruitment is an expensive business, which includes the cost of advertising and the cost of current employees- time interviewing and selecting the right candidate. (ood recruitment and selection can result in. a/ reduced labour turnover b/ reduced absence c/ reduced stress levels , recruitment process should be. a/ efficient 0 cost effective in method and sources b/ effective 0 producing enough suitable candidates c/ fair 0 ensuring that decisions are made on merit without discrimination.
2.2 Recru !"e#! &#( Se)ec! %# 2.2.1 De$ # ! %# *ecruitment is the process of identifying and attracting a group of potential candidates from within and outside the organi ation to evaluate for employment. &nce these candidates are identified, the process of selecting appropriate employees for employment can begin. 2.2.2 Recru !"e#! &#( Se)ec! %# Pr&c! ce* Better recruitment and selection strategies result in improve organi ational outcomes. The more effectively organi ations recruit and select candidates, the more li+ely they are to hire and retain satisfied employees. 2.2.+ Pur,%*e a1 The objectives of this study were to. 2. )dentify general practices that organi ations use to recruit and select employees. 3. 4etermine which recruitment and selection practices are most effective. 5. 4etermine how the recruitment and selection practices affect organi ational outcomes. b1 *ecruitment is the process of identifying and attracting potential candidates from within and outside an organi ation to begin evaluating them for future employment. &nce candidates are identified, an organi ation can begin the selection process. This includes collecting, measuring, and evaluating information about candidates- qualifications for specified positions. The study, based on survey results from 263 members of the 44) $* Benchmar+ (roup, addresses the following issues. a. (eneral recruitment and selection profiles. b. *ecruitment strategies. c. &rgani ational offerings and their impact on prospective employees. d. #urrent and future selection practices. f. &utsourcing recruitment and selection activities. g. Barriers to effective recruitment and selection.
2.2.- .e#er&) Pr%$ )e &/ F #( #'* O0er0 e1 ,lthough internal candidates typically stay in positions and are more successful than external candidates, organi ations fill positions with external candidates, on average, 25 percent more often than internal candidates. )n the next two years. a.78 percent of the organi ations surveyed plan to increase spending on recruiting. b.69 percent of the organi ations plan to increase their spending on selection. c.,lmost half of the organi ations plan to significantly change their current approach to both recruitment :;7 percent1 and selection :;2 percent1 within the next two years. 2.2.2 Recru !"e#! S!r&!e' e* &/ F #( #'* O0er0 e1 &rgani ations were as+ed what strategies they use to recruit both managerial<professional and non management candidates. a. !or recruiting managerial<professional candidates, the )nternet is the most popular advertising medium, used by 76 percent of the organi ations surveyed. b. &rgani ations regularly utili e internal resources :e.g., internal job postings and employee referrals1 when recruiting both internal and external candidates. c. 4ifferent +inds of agencies are used to recruit for positions at different levels. i1 Temporary and government agencies are used mainly to recruit non management candidates. ii1 "mployment agencies, colleges, and professional organi ations are used more often to recruit managerial<professional candidates. 2.2.3 Or'&# 4&! %#&) O$$er #'* The quality of an organi ation-s offerings affects its ability to attract job candidates. a. &rgani ations believe they offer candidates a strong company reputation :6= percent1 and high0quality benefits pac+ages :68 percent1 and learning opportunities :88 percent1. b. >any organi ations do not offer stoc+ options :57 percent1 or child care options :56

identified by the supervisor as being either preferred or necessary qualities :as defined in the %otice of Bacancy1.

CHAPTER - VI 3.1 FINDIN.S OF THE STUDY D , majority of the respondents prefer to post their resume through company web sites and job sites. D The percentage analysis shows that the organi ation relies heavily on internal sources. D >ost of the employees said that a newspaper source reaches them soon. D , majority of employees inferred that they are satisfied with the response given after recruitment. D >ost of the employees said that the final decisions about appointment should be based only on merit. D , majority of employers inferred that there organi ation is following a step by step process with certain rules and regulations in identifying job vacancies.
D The percentage analysis shows that the organi ation is conducting job analysis and job description for each job position. D , majority of employers said that there organi ation using newspaper and employee referral sources mostly. D >ost of the employers inferred that they are measuring the cost for the recruitment sources by comparing the validated budget versus approved budget. D The correlation analysis shows that the questions as+ed in the interview and comfortableness with the interviewer is positively correlated. D >ost of the employees are satisfied with the present recruitment and selection process. D , majority of the employers inferred that the present recruitment and selection process is effective.
3.2 SU..ESTIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS !rom the study, it is found that majority of the employees prefer to post their resume in companies website. So the company can have exclusive career lin+ in its website to post resume. By using a separate lin+ with resume screening software, the resumes can be screened and managed effectively. !rom the study, it is found that newspaper is the effective medium to advertise for recruitment. Since this company focus on candidates from Pondicherry, they can advertise for mass recruitment. *elocation is the main problem for a candidate-s rejecting an offer. So by providing a good salary and accommodation, relocation problem can be solved. Thus the recruitment process can be made effective by retaining the recruited candidate. Some of the employees said that the response given after recruitment is not satisfactory. )f the recruitment feedbac+ mechanism is not effective, there is high ris+ of loosing good candidates to other companies. So they can give the response for candidates immediately
whether they are short listed or rejected. )t is found that the company is not conducting the medical examination for employees during selection process. They can conduct medical examination in order to prevail themselves if any problem happens to the employees.

This study inferred that most of the employers and employees are satisfied with the present process. This study was helpful to study the sources of recruitment and selection techniques O methods used. The study on recruitment and selection is more an ,*T rather than a process. $* professional is having a big responsibility to hire a best person from the available talent pool. ,t the same time, one needs to be cost conscious. The employer should judge on individual merits and set the same standards for all. )n the present scenario, P)t is the biggest challenge for a $* manager to hunt for talent.R

“A STUDY ON
EFFECTIVENESS
OF
RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION PROCESS” in SPi technologies was used to study the existing recruitment and selection process and various factor
involved in it.
Both primary and secondary sources were used to collect data. The primary data is collected from both employers and employees of SPi technologies through a well constructed questionnaire.
The secondary data was collected from various journals, maga ines, articles, various sites and company records.
!rom the analysis it was inferred that the organi ation gave preference to internal sources rather than external sources. Some of the employees felt that the company would still fasten the process.
!rom the study it was found that the employers and employees are satisfied with their present recruitment and selection process
CHAPTER-I INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY The study was conducted in SPi T"#$%&'&()"S, Puducherry to find the effectiveness of recruitment and selection process. *ecruitment and selection process is a crucial factor in any organi ation for selecting the right person for the right job. The study intends to find how effectively recruitment and selection process followed in the organi ation. The study on effectiveness of recruitment and selection process provides the organi ation to +now how effectively the process is going on because attrition rate is one of the major factors in call centers.
CHAPTER - II REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE 2.1 Recru !"e#! De$ # ! %# Recru !"e#! refers to the process of finding possible candidates for a job or function, usually underta+en by recruiters. )t also may be underta+en by an employment agency or a member of staff at the business or organi ation loo+ing for recruits. ,dvertising is commonly part of the recruiting process, and can occur through several means through online, newspapers, using newspaper dedicated to job advertisement, through professional publication, using advertisements placed in windows, through a job center, through campus interviews, etc. 2.1.1 Recru !"e#! Me&# #' "mploying the right staff is an important human resource challenge faced by all employers. *ecruitment is an expensive business, which includes the cost of advertising and the cost of current employees- time interviewing and selecting the right candidate.

The more effectively organi ations recruit and select candidates, the more li+ely they are to hire and retain satisfied employees. 2.2.+ Pur,%*e a1 The objectives of this study were to. 2. )dentify general practices that organi ations use to recruit and select employees. 3. 4etermine which recruitment and selection practices are most effective. 5. 4etermine how the recruitment and selection practices affect organi ational outcomes. b1 *ecruitment is the process of identifying and attracting potential candidates from within and outside an organi ation to begin evaluating them for future employment. &nce candidates are identified, an organi ation can begin the selection process. This includes collecting, measuring, and evaluating information about candidates- qualifications for specified positions. The study, based on survey results from 263 members of the 44) $* Benchmar+ (roup, addresses the following issues. a. (eneral recruitment and selection profiles. b. *ecruitment strategies. c. &rgani ational offerings and their impact on prospective employees. d. #urrent and future selection practices. f. &utsourcing recruitment and selection activities. g.

3.2 SU..ESTIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS !rom the study, it is found that majority of the employees prefer to post their resume in companies website. So the company can have exclusive career lin+ in its website to post resume. By using a separate lin+ with resume screening software, the resumes can be screened and managed effectively. !rom the study, it is found that newspaper is the effective medium to advertise for recruitment. Since this company focus on candidates from Pondicherry, they can advertise for mass recruitment. *elocation is the main problem for a candidate-s rejecting an offer. So by providing a good salary and accommodation, relocation problem can be solved. Thus the recruitment process can be made effective by retaining the recruited candidate. Some of the employees said that the response given after recruitment is not satisfactory. )f the recruitment feedbac+ mechanism is not effective, there is high ris+ of loosing good candidates to other companies. So they can give the response for candidates immediately
whether they are short listed or rejected. )t is found that the company is not conducting the medical examination for employees during selection process. They can conduct medical examination in order to prevail themselves if any problem happens to the employees.
