CASE STUDY : 2
Recruitment is understood as the process of searching for and obtaining
applicants for jobs, from among whom the rights people can be selected.
Theoretically, recruitment process is said to end with the receipt of
applications, in practice the activity extends to the screening of
applications so as to eliminate those who are not qualified for the job.
Recruitment refers to the process of receipt of applications from job
seekers. In reality, the term is used to describe the entire process of
employee hiring. These are recruitment boards for railways, banks and
other organization.
Recruiters are paid for delivering the candidates to managers, who make
the final decision about hiring a new employee.
The organizations are fighting for the best talents in the job market. HR
Recruiters have to develop the competitive approaches to make the
attractive job offers. The candidates select the organization, which is
recognized for being modern and competitive. The job adverts and job
offers have to reflect this.
The managers love to hire the best employees available on the job market.
They love to interview motivated job candidates. The role of HR is to
describe the real need to the manager. Many times, the best job candidate
is not the appropriate job candidate.
Recruitment Sources Management
The recruitment sources management is an extremely significant goal of
the recruitment process. The recruitment sources deliver the candidates
for the selection procedure in the organization. The better the candidates
are; the higher quality job candidates can be hired. The proper
management of the recruitment sources has a significant impact on the
competitive advantage of the organization.
The better employees do not have to be more expensive, but the
organization has to manage the recruitment sources to attract the high
quality job candidates.
Building the Strong Internal Recruitment Process
The external recruitment is not the only goal of the recruitment process.
Building the strong internal recruitment helps the organization to keep
the best talents in the organization. The employees have a chance to apply
for a new job position, and they can change their career path.
The internal recruitment is a difficult HR topic as the managers have to
allow their best employees to take a new role within the organization. The
role of Human Resources is in allowing the best employees to rotate and
in supporting the managers in developing the successors.
HR Marketing
The HR Marketing is essential for the large organization, which need to
attract many job candidates. The large organization cannot hire just the
experts; they have to attract many university graduates. The graduates do
select the employer by the strength of the brand name on the job market
and offered opportunities in the organization.
The HR has to design the recruitment activities, which support the name
of the employer on the job market. The organization has to build a
positive brand name, and it has to promote the job opportunities and
excellent career paths.
the labor market. If the demand for a particular skill is high relative to
the supply, an extraordinary recruiting effort may be needed. When the
unemployment rate in a given area is high the companies recruitment
process may be simpler. The number of unsolicited applicants is usually
greater, and the increased size of the labor pool provides better
opportunities for attracting qualified applicants. On the other hand, as
the unemployment rates drops recruiting efforts must be increased and
new sources explored. Labor-market conditions in a local area are of
primary importance in recruiting for most non-managerial, supervisory
and middle-mgt. positions. However, so far as recruitment for executive
and professional positions are concerned conditions of all India market
are important. Another external factor is political and legal
considerations. Reservation of jobs for SCs, STs, minorities, and other
backward classes(OBCs) is a political decision. The companies image
also matters in attracting large number of job seekers. Blue-chip
companies attract large number of applications. Often, it is not the
money that is important. It is the perception of the job seekers about the
company that matters in attracting qualified prospective employees.
Internal Factors:
There are certain internal forces which deserve consideration while
recruiting personnel. One such internal factor is the recruiting policy of
the organization. Most organizations have a policy on recruiting
internally (from own employees) or externally (from outside the
organization).Generally, the policy is to prefer internal sourcing, as own
employees know the company well and can recommend candidates who fit

Navin AGM materials, is fuming and fretting. He bumped into Kiran,
GM Materials, threw the resignation letter on his table, shouted and
walked out of the room swiftly.
Navin has reason for his sudden outburst. He has been driven to the wall.
Perhaps details of the story will tell the reasons for Navins bile and why
he put in his papers, barely four months after he took up his assignment.
The year was 2005 when Navin quit the prestigious Sail plant at
Mumbai. As a manager material Navin enjoyed the power. He could
even place an order for materials worth Rs 25 lakh. He needed nobodys
prior approval.
Navin joined a pulp making plant located at Pune as AGM Materials.
The plant is owned by a prestigious business house in India. Obviously
perks, designation and reputation of the conglomerate lured Navin away
from the public sector.
When he joined the pulp making company, little did Navin realize that
he needed prior approval to place an order for materials worth Rs 12
5 Get them acquainted with the operation: have another large chart in
the room depicting the flow of work and communications regarding the
organization; this flow should include customers, suppliers and all
parties affecting the organisation (I had just planned such a chart for
the hotel where I dealt with Training and Development, wrote it out in
text, had an artist depict it with cartoon characters on a big white chart,
making it educational but humorous - after all this was a hotel. Maybe
in a technical company humour is not allowed. I explained it to the
artist and we showed how each job position affected the final product since
the customer's / guest's first contact with the operation and ending with
the last contact.
6 Have them know and see departments in operation: based on this
drawing I conducted the orientation and explained all functions of the
hotel, promising a personal tour of all the departments we discussed,
including back areas, where the Department Heads received us
personally and gave further insight on their departments.
7 Allay their fears and doubts: cover subjects which are usually never
mentioned in orientations, such as the difficulties new employees or
supervisors experience, about turnover figures, about how people
assimilate better after hanging out three months, about how they can turn
to you for any difficulties they experience, be it regarding their rejection
by existing old-timers or other matters. Let them know they can always
turn to you for confidential advice (do not forget that any new person
has fears and doubts regarding being accepted, succeeding or failing).
8 Encourage friendships among new employees: try to create a team
spirit among the existing group of newcomers - by the end of the day or
the two days you will have created a group of employees at different levels
and from different departments who will cooperate and enhance
communications across the organisation.
9 Extend respect to them as human beings: have lunch with them as a
group (I saw too many people who conduct orientations go to a different
lunch room and this is very insulting).
10 Enable first hand contact with upper management: have different
Executives come to welcome the group and assure them of management's
commitment to help them succeed. Introduce each of the newcomers, dwell
on their position, career background and personal interests.
11 Assure them that the organisation welcomes their observations,
comments, and critiques.
12 Last but not least, share company goals with them. Discuss it with
them. Ask what their own personal and career goals are and try to (right
there and then) mesh their own goals with the company goals.
This strategy (action plan) has proven to be highly successful. It cuts
down on turnover drastically, engenders trust, cooperation and
motivation.
assuming that cultural nuances are obvious or that new employees will
raise questions if they're unsure about what to wear or when to arrive at
work.
Some unspoken aspects of company culture to share are:
1 Dress code What's the norm for the dress code?
2 Internal communication Is vertical communication encouraged or
frowned upon?
3 Phone etiquette Do employees routinely forward their phone calls to
voice mail?
4 Parking Are there any unspoken rules about where employees can
park?
5 Lunch Do most employees eat in or out? Are there good places to eat
nearby?
6 Work hours Are work hours fixed or flexible?
7 Extracurricular activities Are there groups of employees that get
together outside work?
8 Attitudes Are work teams more cooperative or more competitive?
Share the routine details
As a seasoned HR professional, you probably already use a comprehensive
checklist to ensure that new employees receive and complete all required
documentation, from W-4 forms to insurance forms to e-mail account
requests. Unfortunately, the sheer volume of this paperwork can eclipse
the routine information that new employees need on their very first day.
To help new employees get started, be sure that they know:

Bitter it may taste, shrill it may sound, and sleepless nights it may
cause, but it is true. In a major shake up Airbus. The European aircraft
manufacturers has thrown a big shock to its employees. Before coming to
the details of the shock, a peep into the companys resume.
Name Airbus
Created 1970
President CEO : Vijay M.
Employees 57000
Turnover 26 Bn (Euro)
Total Aircraft sold (Feb 2007) 7187

Rival Boeing
Airbus announced on February 27, 2007 that it would shed 10,000 jobs
across four European contries and sell six of its unit. N the same day the
helpless workers did what was expected of them downed tools and staged
protests. The protesting workers at Airbuss factory at Meaulte, northern
France, were seen picketing outside the factory gate after holding up
production a day earlier. To be fair to Airbus, its management entered
talks with unions before the job loss and sale was formally announced.
But the talks did not mollify the agitated workers.
Job sheating and hiring of units are a part of Power and restructuring
plan unleashed by Airbus to save itself from increasing loss of its ground
to the arch rival, Boeing Co.
Airbus Power & Strategy was first mooted in October 2006 but sparkled
a split between France & Germany over the distribution of job losses and
the placement of future ones. Later the two countries agreed to share both
job losses and new technology.
The power and plan, if finalized, would mean a 3 per cent reduction to
Airbuss 55000 employee strength.
Q1) Why should Power and focus on shedding jobs to save on cost?
It is a mean to save the company and carry on the good work.
Q2) Are there no alternative strategies?
THRER ARE ALTERNATIVES BUT THE FUNDING IS THE MAJO
R CONSTRAINT.
Q3) Will the proposed shedding of jobs and scale of six units help airbus
survive the intense competition from Boeing?
YES, THIS IS THE EXACT SITUATION.
