1. INTRODUCTION
People are integral part of any organization today. No organization can run without its human
resources. In todays highly complex and competitive situation, choice of right person at the
right place has far reaching implications for an organizations functioning. Employee well
selected and well placed would not only contribute to the efficient running of the
organization but offer significant potential for future replacement. This hiring is an important
function. The process of hiring begins with human resource planning (HRP) which helps to
determine the number and type of people on organization needs. Job analysis and job design
enables to specify the task and duties of hobs and qualification expected from prospective job
HRP, job analysis, hob design helps to identify the kind of people required in an organization
and hence hiring. It should be noted that hiring is an ongoing process and not confined to
formative stages of an organization. Employees leave the organization in search of greener
pastures, some retire and some die in the saddle. More importantly an enterprises grows,
diversifies, take over the other units all necessitating hiring of new men and women. In fact
the hiring function stops only when the organization ceases to exist.
Hiring involves two broad activities:i)
Recruitment
ii)
Selection
1.1RECRUITMENT
The word recruitment has many meaning and plays an important role. Employees leave the
organization in search of greener pastures- some retire some die in saddle. The most important
thing is that enterprise grows, diversifies, and takes over other units-all necessitating hiring of
new men and women. In fact recruitment functions stop only when the organization ceases to
exist. To understand recruitment in simple terms it is understood as process of searching for
obtaining applications of job from among from whom the right people can be selected. To define
recruitment we can define it formally as it is a process of finding and attracting capable
applicants for employment. The process begins when new recruit are sought and ends when their
application are submitted. The result is a pool of applicants from which new employees are
selected. Theoretically, recruitment process is said to end with receipt of application in practice
the activity extends to the screening applicants as to eliminate those who are not qualified for
job.
PHILOSOPHIES OF RECRUITMENT
The traditional philosophy of recruiting has been to get as many people to apply for
a job as possible. A large number of jobseekers waiting in queues would make the
final selection difficult, often resulting in wrong selection. Job dissatisfaction and
employee turnover are the consequence of this. A persuasive agreement can be made that
matching the needs of the organization to the needs of the applicants will enhance the
effectiveness of the recruitment process. The result will be a workforce which is likely to stay
with the organization longer and performs at a higher level of effectiveness. Two approaches
are available to bring about match. They are:
DEFINATION:
It is the process of differentiating between applicants in order to identify
(and here) those with a greater likelihood of success in a job.

1.2 SELECTION
MEANING AND DEFINATION
Selection is the process of picking individuals (out of the pool of job applicants) with
requisite qualifications and competence to fill jobs in the organization. A formal definition of
Selection is: It is the process of differentiating between applicants in order to identify (and
here) those with a greater likelihood of success in a job.
Recruitment and selection are the two crucial in the HR process and are often used
interchangeably. There I, however, a fine distinction between the two steps. While recruitment
refers to the process of identifying and encouraging prospective employees to apply for jobs,
selection is concerned with picking the right candidates from the pool of applicants.
Recruitment is said to be positive in its approach as it seeks to attract as many candidates as
possible. Selection, on the other hand, is negative in its application in as it seeks to
eliminate as many unqualified applicants as possible in order to identify the right candidates.
ROLE OF SELECTION
The role of selection in an organizations effectiveness is crucial for at least, two reasons;
first, work performance depends on individuals. The best way to improve performance is to hire
people who have the competence and the willingness to work. Arguing from the employees
viewpoint, poor or inappropriate choice can be demoralizing to the individual concerned (who
finds himself or herself in the wrong job) and de-motivating to the rest of the workforce.
Effective selection, therefore, assumes greater relevance.
Second, cost incurred in recruiting and hiring personnel speaks about volumes of the
selection. Costs of wrong selection are greater.
a selection process involves mutual decision-making. The organization decides whether or not to
make a job offer and how attractive the offer should be. The candidate decides whether or not
organization and the fob offer fit his or her needs and goal. In reality, the selection process is
highly one-side. When the job market is extremely right, several candidates will be applying

2. REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Most employers recognize the fact that their staff is their 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 number of staff, with
6
the right skills and abilities. Organizations may have a dedicated personnel/human resource
function overseeing this process, or they may devolve these responsibilities to line managers and
supervisors. Many people may be involved, and all should be aware of the principles of good
practice. Even it is essential to involve others in the task of recruitment and induction.
Ms. Ambika Verma(2009) in their survey research on the use of technologies in recruiting,
screening, and selection processes for job candidates conducted in Dimension group found that
most organizations implemented technology based recruitment and selection tools to improve
efficiency, reduce costs, and expand the applicant pool.
The meta-analysis of the research conducted by chapman, uggersler, carroll, piasentin& Jones
(2005) concluded that timely responses from HR managers were linked to greater applicant
attraction to a job with an organization.
According to Robins, in his study revealed that, The ideal recruitment effort will attract a large
number 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.
Robert (2005), in his study titled, Strategic HR Review, 2004, states that successful
recruitment and selection can improve organization performance.
Bowen, et al(1991), in his study examined that integrated recruitment and selection process
helps recruiters to choose the candidates to fit the characteristics of an organization culture
Beardwell, et al(2003) in his study examined that, Selection is carried out by organizations as a
means of candidates potential and actual performance and the intake of employees will make the
most appropriate contribution to organization-now and in future.
