EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

I interned with Spectrum talent management which is a comprehensive HR services company

offering solutions spanning the entire talent life cycle including Recruitment, On boarding, Payroll and

Flexible Staffing. The main objective is to study the recruitment and selection process followed by

the organization for their clients and understandthe barriers to effective recruitment and selection

process at Spectrum.

The sources of project depends on accurate data which is collectedboth primary and secondary

data collection method .A sample size of 50 employees. Internal Promotions and Job Portals are

mostly used recruitment source. Concerned departmental head is given special attention while

selecting a candidate of the department.

To be conclude, Management should structure and systematically organize the entire recruitment

processes. It should offers tolls and support to enhance performance, solutions and optimizing

the recruitment processes to ensure improved ROI. Due to time constraint in-depth study could

not be carried out.As the strength of the company is big, it was not possible to draw sample from

each and every department.

INTRODUCTION TO PROJECT

RECRUITMENT

The action of finding new people to join an organization or support a clause is generally called as

recruitment. Recruitment is a process of analyzing the requirements of a job, attracting

employees to that job, screening and selecting applicants, hiring, and integrating the new

employees into the organization through various induction programs.

Companies, governments and non profits organizations do recruitment for their various job roles.

Recruitment thus becomes an essential part of an organization in its growth process. It can be

said as the core function of human resource management. It is the first step of appointment.

Generally, managers, human resource generalists and recruitment specialists carry out the task of

recruitment in organizations, but in some cases public-sector employment agencies, commercial

recruitment agencies, or specialist search consultancies are used to undertake parts of this

process.

Recruitment process generally happens in three stage process. The three steps of recruitment are-

Job analysis, Sourcing, and Screening and selection. Job analysis includes analysing the

requirement of the particular job and then drafting up a job description or job specifications.

Sourcing is the use of one or more strategies to attract or identify candidates to fill job vacancies.

Screening and selection process helps in finding out the suitable candidate and employers are

legally mandated to ensure them so that they meet equal opportunity and ethical standards.

Thus we can say that ‘Recruitment is the activity that links employer and job seekers’.

9
In sourcing:

Companies recruit the candidates and, employ them, train and develop them and utilize the

human resources of these candidates. This strategy is called In-sourcing. Companies formulate

and implement this strategy when the corporate strategy is stable.

Out sourcing:

Some service companies depend for their human resources on such external organization whose

core business is to provide human resources. This strategy is called Out-sourcing. Out-sourcing

strategy is more suitable for both the fast growing and diversifying companies.

 To search for talent globally and not just within the company.

 To design entry pay that competes on quality but not on quantum.

 To anticipate and final people for positions that do not exists yet.

Subsequent step. Employee selection is the process of putting right men on the right job.

It is a procedure of matching organizational requirements with the skills and

qualifications of people. Effective selection can be done only where there is effective

matching. By selecting best candidate for the required job, the organization will get

quality performance of employees. Moreover, organization will face less absenteeism

10
 and employee turnover problems. By selecting right candidate for the required job,

organization will also save time and money. Proper screening of candidates takes place

during selection procedure. All the potential candidates who apply for the given job are

tested.

Sources of Recruitment

Sources of recruitment may be classified into two broad categories, namely intenal external

sources:

Internal Sources

Present employees-permanent, temporary & casual employees already on the payof the

organization are a good source. Vacancies may be filled up from eachemployee through

promotion, transfer, upgrading & even demotion.

Retired & retrenched employees who want to return to the company may be rehired. Dependents

& relatives of deceased & disabled employees.

External Sources

 Educational and training institutions

Various institute like IIMs, IITs, engineering college, medical colleges, ITI's, & universities are a

good sources for recruiting well qualified executives, engineers, medical staff, pharmacists,

chemist etc. They provide facilities for campus interview & placement.

11
 Placement agencies

Several private consultancy firms perform recruiting function on behalf of the client companies

by charging fee. Employment exchange-

Government of India has established public employment exchange throughout the country. These

exchanges provide information about job vacancies to the job seekers and help employers in

identifying suitable candidates. They contain a data bank of candidates of different types of jobs.

Whenever they get notice from employers the concerned candidates are informed. A list of such

persons is sent to the employer. The employment exchanges Act 1959 makes it obligatory for

both public sector enterprises to fill certain types of vacancies through employment exchanges

also provide vocational guidance and job counseling to jobseekers.

 Labor contractors

Manual workers can be recruited through contractors whomaintain close links with the sources

of such workers. This source is often used to recruit labor for construction jobs. The

disadvantage of this source isthat when the contractor leaves the organization, people employed

through him also go.

 Employee recommendations

Office bearers of trade unions are often aware of the suitability of candidates. Management can

enquire these leaders for suitable jobs. In some organizations, there is formal agreement to give

priority in recruitment

12
 Press advertisement

Advertisement in newspaper & journals is a widely used source ofrecruitment. The

advantage of this is that it has a very wide reach. One advertisement in a leading daily can

cover millions of persons throughout the country. Cost per person is very low. This method

can be used for clerical, technical and managerial jobs

13
 CREATING TALENT POOL

As mentioned earlier in the report, creating Talent pool is also one of the main task of the talent

acquisition team of HR dept. of any organization. Talent pool is defined as the database of

individuals created by the recruiter during the recruitment process. It is usually made within an

Applicant Tracking System. It could be mainly based on experience, job title, designation and

skill sets. This process of creating a talent pool for an organization is highly helpful to the

recruiter as it as beneficial tool to help locate talent in the database, quickly and effectively. It

further reduces recruitment costs, agency costs, and reduces the time to hire.

SPECTRUM also has its own talent pool system. The HR team has another team in the talent

acquisition team itself which takes care of creating talent pool and maintaining the talent pool for

CBRE. Technology has already marked its importance in every field today and today the talent

acquisition teams also take the help of this technology in creating the talent pool also. Software’s

are available in market for recruiters to create a talent pool and SPECTRUM also uses one of this

software to maintain its talent pool. The software used by SPECTRUM is known as CSM

(CARRIER SITE MANAGER)

14
SELECTION

Once the recruiting effort has developed a pool of candidates, the next step in the HRM process

is to determine who is best qualified for the job. This step is called the selection process. The

enterprise decides whether to make a job offer and how attractive the offer should be. The job

candidate decides whether the enterprise and the job offer fit his or her needs and personal goals.

The process also seeks to predict which applicants will be successful if hired. Success, in this

case, means performing well on the criteria the enterprise uses to evaluate employees

SELECTION PROCESS

Selection is a long process , commencing from the preliminary interview of the applicants and

ending with the contract of employment.

15

17
OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY

 To study the recruitment and selection process followed by the organization for their

clients.

 To understand the barriers to effective recruitment and selection.

 To understand the present recruitment and selection scenario in organization.

18
 SCOPE OF THE STUDY

 The research will enable a research to study thoroughly the recruitment and selection

process.

 This research will help the researcher to have a better insight into the recruitment and

selection process followed by organization for their clients.

 This research will help in better evaluation of the recruitment and selection process.

 Feedback received from employees , will highlight present recruitment and selection

scenario in the organization.

19
The recruitment process of SPECTRUM done for their clients is

explained below:-

a) JOB DESCRIPTION

A position when opened in FMCG companies (clients) comes first to the recruitment

team of the FMCG department. Various recruitment teams handle various positions of the

different business lines. An appropriate job description helps the recruitment team in

finding the brightest, most competent, flexible, reliable, and multifaceted employees. , the

recruiter himself drafts a job description after listening to the requirements of the

business clients so that it can help them in knowing the required knowledge, skills,

education, experience and capabilities that you are seeking in your new employee. This

job description when further send to the shortlisted candidates will help them in

understanding the duties and responsibilities of the position for which they are applying.

b) JOB POSTINGS

SPECTRUM does job postings for recruiting candidates. They post jobs on the company

websites and also post job openings on various social media sites including linkedIn. The

recruiters search the professional networking sites most of the times to find about a right

candidate mainly when they are hiring for a higher designation.

20
c) SOURCING CANDIDATES

Sourcing is the process of finding resumes within the recruitment process. Recruiters of

both the third party and corporate’s need to find qualified candidates for their open job

orders, often with some niche requirements. Sourcing is many times used to refer to

highly specialized talent searches. However, sourcing is also more than specialized

resume search and candidate name generation. It is also an integral part of any company’s

overall hiring and talent acquisition strategy. In the recruitment industry, therefore,

sourcing when referred to as a tactic, often means the practice of finding specialized

candidates on the internet or through phone work. When referred to as a strategy,

sourcing can mean a number of different broad hiring initiatives or approaches to labour

requirements in market.

SPECTRUM also follows its own pattern in sourcing candidates. The talent acquisition

team of SPECTRUM mainly follows internet sourcing tactics in recruiting its candidates.

The recruitment team sources candidates from different job portals and also takes help

from recruiting agencies. For sourcing at higher levels and that too for niche positions,

they source candidates from recruiting agencies and from internal links.

 NAUKRI.COM

Naukri.com is one of the main and most used job portals of SPECTRUM

recruiting team. Recruiting team posts job openings in SPECTRUM in

naukri.com and invites applicants from various firms with relevant qualification

and experience for the post. There is an employer zone page in naukri.com which

21
 is used by SPECTRUM, to post and source candidates. The advanced search

criteria in the employer zone page provide the recruiting team to source

candidate’s profile using specific keywords. The page gives the employer options

to specify his requirements and identify and target only particular candidates who

fulfil all the requirements of the employer.

The criteria’s that are specifically mentioned on the page are:

Keywords:

Experience required:

CTC range:

Educational qualifications:

Employers:

Designation:

Male/ Female:

Notice period:

Additional information’s:

There are some more options which will help you in sourcing right CV’s. The company

pays a good sum of money as fees to naukri.com annually to help them source CV’s from

them. By paying that much the company can source up to 35000 annually. The official e-

mail ID of the recruiter is synced with naukri.com and they will have a unique password

to access the portal and this is the only way to get access to the data. You can download

22
 the CV’s from the portal and even download the naukri.com CV which is uploaded by the

employees on the sites.

 LINKEDIN

As we all know, LinkedIn is a social networking site designed specifically for the

business community. This site allows registered members to establish and

document networks of people they know and trust professionally. SPECTRUM

also takes help of LinkedIn to source candidates and to generate leads and

professional information about candidates for high profile hirings.

d) REVIEWING APPLICANTS AND SHORTLISTING

Once the job opening is posted or the sourcing is done, then comes the process of

screening or shortlisting the required candidates only. The CV’s are reviewed by the

recruiters and they check that which all candidates fulfill their requirements. Finding out

candidates is not the real task of a good recruiter, finding qualified and talented

candidates is the main task. Even if the right CV’s are identified then also the recruiter

has to find out whether that particular is interested for a new job or is interested in our

particular firm. Screening of candidate is done by different methods but mainly by

telephonic rounds. SPECTRUM also does the first screening by conducting telephonic

interviews.

23
e) CONDUCTING INTERVIEWS

Interviews are conducted by almost all organizations to select candidates to fill their job

openings. This method helps the recruiter in identifying who is best and who is not from

the lined up candidates. Not only the educational aspect but other traits of the candidates

are also identified while conducting interviews. Some of the benefits of conducting

interviews are mentioned below:

- Communication skills of the candidates can be checked.

- Can check the confidence level of the candidate.

- The social behaviour of the candidates can be analysed.

- The body language and the smartness of the candidates can be checked.

- It is an excellent way to whittle down large masses.

- Additional information’s can be gathered.

- Expectation’s of the candidates is known.

- The recruiter can explain their job requirements and clarify everything beforehand.

Different interviews are conducted by different organizations depending upon their

requirements. The types of interviews conducted by SPECTRUM are telephonic

interviews, face to face interviews, Skype interviews, technical interviews and written

test interviews.

24
TELEPHONIC INTERVIEWS

Telephonic interviews are the first round of screening candidates done by many of the

top organizations. SPECTRUM also conducts telephonic interviews to shortlist

candidates on the first level. It is the first level of screening. It is defined as an

interview conducted over the phone by the employer to screen the candidate on the

ground level requirements. A candidate’s answer to phone screening interview

questions can allow you to speedily identify the most promising candidates. Some of

the questions that are mainly asked while conducting telephonic interviews at

SPECTRUM are as follows:

 Tell me a little about yourself

 What reasons do you have for leaving your current or recent job?

 What is a typical day like at your current or most recent job?

 Why do you want this job?

 How do you see yourself contributing for this position?

 What are your current designation and your current CTC?

 What is your overall experience?

 What is your notice period and how soon you can join as if you get selected?

 When is it possible for you to attend a face to face interview?

The candidates shortlisted in this round is then invited for the face to face interview

by the HR by dropping him an e-mail which contains the interview call letter and the

job description.

25
FACE TO FACE INTERVIEWS

It can be described as a data collection method where the interviewer directly

communicates with the interviewee and try to find out information’s from him by

putting up different questions before him. This method enables the interviewer to

acquire factual information, attitudes, preferences and other information coming out

of during the conversion with the respondent.

It is a hiring process that requires a systematic approach. The hiring manager who

will be conducting such type of interviews must be completely prepared, and well

organized. He may require good experience into conducting interviews, may ask

relevant questions to the candidate and should have the ability to identify potential

candidate.

In SPECTRUM , the HR recruiter invites the candidates for the face to face interview

after they have been screened by telephonic interview. The first round of face to face

interview is taken by the HR itself and he/she screens the candidate on their own

basis and then sends the right candidate’s to the concerned person in the concerned

organization (client) for the second round of face to face interview.

In the second round of face to face interview, the interviewer interviews the candidate

and selects the right candidate amongst the lined up candidates and thus informs the

HR about the selected candidates.

26
Technical interviews

A technical round of interview typically features that are specific to the role you have

applied for. These might include brain teaser questions/ or numerical reasoning

questions.

f) BACKGROUND CHECK

Once the candidates are shortlisted, then the main task before the recruiter is to conduct

the background verification and the references of the candidates. It is noted that many

organizations and recruiters miss this step in the recruitment process. Hiring a wrong

person may prove extremely costly to the organization.

SPECTRUM also does background verification of its employees before placing an offer

to the selected candidates. References, or any other related documents are collected by

the operations team before they give them the offer letter.

g) PLACING OFFER

Once the background verification is also done then the HR manager offers the OFFER

LETTER to the candidates. It can be said as a contract of employment between the

employee and the employer. It must provide the employee with all the details regarding

his job.

27
h) FOLLOW UP

This is one of the most important step in the recruitment process. Some people believe

that recruitment process stops with the employee accepting the offer letter. But the truth

is that recruitment process ends with the follow up process.

In SPECTRUM we take follow up of the candidates to whom the offer letter was offered.

We asked them about their on boarding session ,or any other issue they are facing so that

the candidate easily adjust with the environment of the organization and don’t think about

changing the job.

28

Contingent Recruitment

Sometimes it makes sense to pay only when the process is complete and your new hire is on

board. Contingency recruiting is particularly appropriate for companies looking to fill mid-level

to upper management positions on a non-confidential basis.

The critical success factor in contingency recruitment is in establishing the right specifications

for both job roles and candidate profiles. These specifications include company background and

structure and detailed information about the precise skills required. It’s our experience and the

investment of time at this stage that enables the process to run to pre-arranged interview dates,

times and venues.

35
At STM, we treat contingency recruiting with thoroughness, professionalism and discretion. We

possess an unparalleled national network of candidates, sophisticated technology, rigorous

market research and analytics, a holistic communications process and deep industry knowledge.

The experience of our team ensures quality of service throughout the recruitment process. Our

recruitment consultants are dedicated to understanding both the requirements of the role and each

candidate’s skills and experience. During the in-depth pre-screening we also examine and

document the candidate’s personality and motivation, which is particularly useful to clients, and

normally present no more than four candidates for any one position. This ensures both sufficient

choice and the highest quality of candidates.

Our search methodology separates us from others in the contingency recruiting space and

ensures that you receive the focused insight and dedicated commitment to hiring success that you

and your business deserve. We identify and evaluate prospective candidates who meet your

precise hiring criteria. We thoroughly vet and pre-qualify every candidate for your consideration.

Global HR Backend

Corporate recruiting departments and staffing firms have a continual need to lower costs while

increasing recruiting productivity — and some recruiting organizations have turned to

outsourcing. Outsourcing can take many forms including retaining an overseas-based recruitment

process outsourcing firm, sending job orders to staffing agencies, participating in split-fee

recruiter networks, or hiring contract sourcers and/or recruiters.

A less-expensive solution being implemented by progressive U.S. companies is partnering with

an offshore recruiting firm. The cost of an offshore sourcer or recruiter is generally about one-

third to one-half the cost of a Local-based contract sourcer or recruiter. Offshore recruiting firms

allow overseas-based in-house recruiters to offload time-consuming, but important tasks, such as

candidate sourcing and screening. With the additional time, in-house recruiters can work on and

close more open positions, focus on complex tasks requiring the greatest skills, provide a more

positive experience for candidates, and delight hiring managers by presenting higher quality

candidates.

45
At Spectrum Talent Management, we provide professional HR outsourcing solutions for your

business with the ideal administrative methods that ensure a smooth progression of your

company’s management.

more improvements. To ensure that company recruits the right people, it has to identify essential

skills and behaviors that applicants should demonstrate . For each position there should be a job

description outlining typical duties and responsibilities and a person specification defining

company to the needs of the applicants .this would minimize employee turnover and enhance

satisfaction .

can be executed effectively to recruit the best talent pool for the selection of the right candidate

at the right place quickly . creating a suitable recruitment policy is the first step in the efficient

hiring process . A clear and concise recruitment policy helps ensure a sound recruitment process.
