Project Title:-A Study on Recruitment Process, Policies and Practices at iGate Co. Ltd.

2.1 Introduction:-
In simple terms recruitment is understood as the process of searching for and
obtaining applicants for jobs. It is a ‘linking function’- joining together those with jobs to
fill and those seeking jobs.
Recruitment is defined as “a process to discover the sources of manpower to
meet the requirements of the staffing schedule and to employ effective measures for
attracting that manpower in adequate numbers to facilitate effective selection of an
efficient workforce.”
It refers to the process of finding possible candidates for a job or function, usually
undertaken by recruiters. Advertising 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 graduate recruitment programs, etc.
A defined recruitment process needs to be followed to ensure that the right person
reaches the right place at the right time with right resources.
A general recruitment process involves Identifying vacancies, prepare job
description and person specification, advertising, managing the response, short-listing,
arranging interviews, conducting interviews, decision making, convey the decision and
appointment action. This means that a lot of time and resources have to be invested.
