02.PROCESS OF RECRUITING AND SELECTION EMPLOYEES IN THE COMPANY.

 

Recruitment and selection constitutes a staffing function of management. Scientific selection ensures right man for the right job. For creating a team of efficient, capable and loyal employees, proper attention needs to be given to scientific selection of managers and other employees. The conventional approach of selecting managers in a casual manner is now treated as outdated and is being replaced by scientific and rational approach, deciding who should hire under the employment rule of the organisation for the short and long-term interests of the individual employee and the organisation.1 Recruitment and selection is the process of getting human resources into organizations, departments, sections and jobs use. What might be an even more useful definition of recruitment is that about the art of discovering and procuring potential applicants for actual and anticipated vacancies in the organization. This definition has introduced the concept of ‘art’ which is about the soft skills of management, some of which might be a natural talent of some managers or acquired through specialized training. The use of the word ‘discover’ emphasizes effective recruitment, a process that involves exploration which require specialized methods and techniques, short of which no ‘discovery’ of potential people for the job can be made. Usually, recruitment and selection depends on the organization’s policy guiding recruitment and selection. The basic principle in selection is "right man for the right job" and can be achieved only through scientific recruitment and selection.

This is because the ability of an organization is determined to a great extent by the ability of its workforce. The old belief that capital was fundamental to the progress of the organisation and does not hold good any longer as employers around the world have begun to believe that a smart workforce is the key to the success of an organization.
