INTRODUCTION
Introduction
The project report is all about recruitment and selection procedure that’s important part of
every organization.
Recruitment highlights each applicant’s skills, talents and experience. Their selection
involves developing a list of qualified candidates, defining a selection strategy,
identifying qualified candidates, thoroughly evaluating qualified candidates and selecting
the most qualified candidate.
It is said if right person is appointed at right place the half work has been done. In this
project I have tried to cover all the important point that should be kept in mind while
recruitment and selection process and have conducted a research study through a
questionnaire that I got it filled with all the HR managers of Havells India ltd. and tried to
find out which methods and various other information related to recruitment and selection
and tries to come to a conclusion at what time mostly the manpower planning is don‟t ,
what the various method used for recruiting the candidates and on what basic the
selections is done.
Havells has a well-articulated equal opportunity policy, which lays strong emphasis con
hiring of individuals irrespective of age, race, caste or gender. As a best practice in
recruitment.
The objective of my study is to understand and critically analysis the recruitment and
selection procedure of Havells India ltd.
The benefit of the study for the researcher is that it helped to gain knowledge and
experience and also provided the opportunity to study and understand the prevalent
recruitment and selection procedure.
Judgment sample
Judgment sample is a type of nonrandom sample, which is selected based on the opinion
of an expert. Results obtained from a judgment sample are subject to some degree of bias,
due to the frame and population not being identical. The frame is a list of all the units,
items, people, etc. that define the population to be studied.
Convenience sampling
Accidental sampling (sometimes known as grab, convenience sampling or
opportunity sampling) is a type of non probability sampling which involves the sample
being drawn from that part of the population which is close to hand. That is, a sample
population selected because it is readily available and convenient. The researcher using
such a sample cannot scientifically make generalizations about the total population from
this sample because it would not be representative enough.
The data for the survey will be conducted from both Primaries as well as Secondary
sources.
Primary Data: -
Using personal interview technique the survey the data will collect by using
questionnaire. The primary data collection for his purpose is supposed to be done by
judgment sampling conversation sampling. Questionnaire has been formatted with both
open and close structure questions.
Secondary Data: -
“The efficient utilization of human resources may very well be the most important
determiner of success in the business world in the coming decade. I think that the
companies that prosper in the future will be those that do the best job in fully utilizing
their human resources.”
All organizations are basically human organizations. They need people to carry out the
organizational mission, goals and objectives. Every organization needs to recruit
people .The recruitment policy should, therefore, address itself to the key question; what
are the personnel/human resource requirement of the organization in terms of number,
skills, levels etc to meet present and future needs of production and technical and other
changes planned or anticipated in the next years.
Higher education is a human resource intensive enterprise. It is not surprising, then, that
recruitment and selection of staff should be a very high priority in most if not all units
and divisions of student affairs. Recruitment and selection should include procedures
directed to analyze the need and purpose of a position, the culture of the institution, and
ultimately to select and hire the person that best fits the position. Recruitment and
selection policy should, then, be directed toward the following objectives:
Recruit staff members who are compatible with the college or university
Hire individuals by using a model that focuses on student learning and education of
the whole person.
Place individuals in positions with responsibilities that will enhance their personal
development
2.2 Recruitment
Recruiters need to keep abreast of changes in the labour market to ensure that their
recruitment efforts are not wasted or directed at too small a pool of labour. Skill shortages
may occur unexpectedly and recruitment and training processes need to be kept flexible.
It is a good idea for any organisation to plan its labour force requirements, matching
available supply against forecast demand. A skills audit of existing staff will increase
knowledge of the skills the organisation has available and those which are lacking, and
thus help pinpoint areas for future development. A human resource plan need not be
highly complicated. A straightforward plan will help organisations to:
Management is responsible for producing the human resource plan, senior management
for supporting it. Implementation is likely to be most effective if it carries the support of
the workforce, normally achieved through consultation with trade union or other
employee representatives.
In recruting new employees management must consider the nature of labor market, what
sort of potential labor are available and how do look for works.
The factor affecting can be summed up under the following heads:
This booklet describes the main features of such systems, and other related issues.
fair - ensuring that right through the process decisions are made on merit.
Recruitment Process
have work patterns, new technology or new products altered the job?
are there any changes anticipated which will require different, more flexible
skills from the jobholder ?
Answers to these questions should help to clarify the actual requirements of the job
and how it fits into the rest of the organisation or department. Exit interviews, or
consultation with the current job-holder and colleagues may well produce good ideas
about useful changes.
After job analysis is done, job description is made. Job description describes the job.
The job description decides upon the exact knowledge, skill and experience needed to
do the job.

Evaluation future needs
For Evaluation future needs manpower is drafting. A manpower plan evolves studying
the make-up of present work force, assessing forthcoming changes and calculating
future workforce, which is required. Manpower planning helps in devising long-term
recruitment plans
2.2.4 Finding sources of recruitment:
The human resource requirement can be met from internal or external source:
Internal Sources
These refer to persons already employed in the organization. Promoting persons from
lower levels may fill up vacancies at higher levels. Shortage of manpower in one
branch \ factory may be met by transferring surplus staff from another branch \
factory. Promotion means shifting of an employee to higher post caring greater salary,
status and responsibility. On the other hand transfer refer to the shifting an employee
with salary, status and responsibility. Some time ex-employee of the organization may
be re-employed.
comparing like with like is easier. CVs can be time-consuming and may not
provide the information required
they provide the basis for an initial sift(filter), and then for the interview
the standard of completion can be a guide to the candidate's suitability, if writing and
presentation skills are essential to the job; however, be aware of possibility of
disability discrimination
they provide a record of qualifications, abilities and experience as stated by the
applicant.
Care also needs to be taken over some less positive aspects of application forms:
there is a temptation to use application forms to try to extract too much information,
eg motives, values and personality characteristics. The form shouldconcentrate on the
experience, knowledge and competencies needed for the job .
some people may dislike filling in forms and so be put off applying for the job. Some
very experienced people may find the form inadequate, whilst those with little in the
way of qualifications or experience may be intimidated by large empty spaces on the
form.
application forms add another stage, and therefore more time, to the recruitment
process. Some candidates may be lost if they can obtain work elsewhere more
quickly
Application forms may inadvertently be discriminatory. For instance, to require a
form to be filled out 'in your own handwriting', where written English is not relevant
to the job, may discriminate against those for whom English is not their first
language, or who may not have well-developed literacy skills.
Any information such as title (marital status), ethnic origin or date of birth requested
for monitoring purposes (eg for compliance with the legal requirements and codes of
practice on race, sex, disability and age discrimination) should be clearly shown to be
for this purpose only, and should be on a separate sheet or tear-off section. Such
information need only be provided on a voluntary basis. Medical information should
also be obtained separately and kept separate from the application form.
a) Direct Method:
These include the campus interview and keeping a live register of job seekers. Usually under
this method, information about jobs and profile of persons available for jobs is exchanged and
preliminary screening is done. The short listed candidates are then subjected to the remainder
of the selection process. Some organization maintains live registers or record of applicants and
refers to them as and when the need arises.
b) Indirect Method:
They cover advertising in newspapers, on the radio, in trade and professional journals,
technical journals and brochures.
When qualified and experienced persons are not available through other sources,
advertising in newspapers and professional and technical journals in made. Whereas all
types of advertisements can be made in newspapers and magazines, only particular types
of posts should be advertised in the professional and technical journals.
A well thought-out and planned advertisement for appointments reduces the possibility of
unqualified people applying. If the advertisement is clear and to the point, candidates can
assess their abilities and suitability for the position and only those who possess the
requisite qualifications will apply
Various agencies are used for recruitment under these methods. These include
commercial and private employment agencies, state agencies, and placement offices of
schools, colleges and professional associations, recruiting firms, management consulting
firms, indoctrination seminars for college professors, friends and relatives.
Professional Societies: They may provide leads and clues in providing promising
candidates for engineering, technical and management positions. Some of these maintain
mail order placement services.
2.3 SELECTION
Whatever form the applications take, there may be a need to sift them before moving on
to the interview stage. Such a sift serves to match the applicants as closely as possible to
the job and person specification and to produce a shortlist of people to interview. To
avoid any possibility of bias, such sifting should be undertaken by two or more people,
and it should involve the direct line manager/supervisor as well as personnel. The sifting
stage can also help the organisation by providing feedback on the advertising process and
the suitability of the application form. It can also identify people who might be useful
elsewhere in the organisation. If references or medicals are to be taken up before the
invitation to interview stage, it should be made clear on the application form/information
pack sent to the applicant.
If your organisation believes that pre-employment health screening is necessary, you must
make sure it is carried out in a non-discriminatory way: for instance, do not single out
disabled people for medical assessment. If a report from any individual's doctor is sought,
then permission must be given by the individual, and they have the right to see the report
(Access to Medical Reports Act 1988).The candidates who best match the specifications
may then be invited for interview. The invitation letter should tell candidates that they
should advise the organisation in advance if any particular arrangements need to be made
to accommodate them on arrival or during the interview; for instance, ramp access or
lighting levels. The invitation letter should also clearly state whether the organisation
will pay the candidate's reasonable travel expenses for the interview.
Selection process assumes and rightly so, that there are more number of candidate
actually selected candidates are made available through recruitment process.
The main objectives of selection are to hire people having competence and commitment.
This objective is often defeated because of certain barriers. The impediments, which
check effectiveness of selection, are perception, fairness, validity, reliability and pressure.
Reliability: A reliable method is one that will produce consistent results when
repeated in similar situations. Like a validated test, a reliable test may fail to predict job
performance with precision.
Preliminary Screening:
This is essentially to check whether the candidate fulfills the minimum qualification. The
preliminary interview is generally quite brief. Its aim is to eliminate the unsuitable
candidate. The job seekers are received at the reception counter of the company. The
receptionists or other official interviews the candidates to determine whether he is
worthwhile or the candidate to fill up the application blank. Candidates processing
theminimum qualification and having some chances of being selected are given the
prescribed application form known as application blank.
Application Blank:
The candidates are required to give full information about their age, qualification,
experience, family background, aptitude and interests act in the application blank. The
application blank provides a written record about the candidate. The application form
should be designed to obtain all relevant information about the candidates. All
applications received from the candidates are carefully scrutinized. After the scrutiny
more suitable candidates among the applicants are short-listed for written tests and others
are rejected.
Employment Tests:
Candidates are asked to appear for written or other tests. Tests have become popular
screening devices. These tests are based on the assumption that human traits and work
behaviors can be predicted by sampling, however tests are not fully reliable and they also
involve time and money. Test is more useful in identifying and eliminating unsuitable
candidates therefore should be used only as supplements rather than an independent
technique of selection. The main types of tests are:
Intelligence tests
Aptitude Test
Interest Test
Personality Test
Selection Interview:
It involves a face-to-face conversation between the employer and the candidate; the
selector asks a job related and general questions. The way in which a candidate responds
to the question is evaluated. The objectives of the interview are as following:
Candidates who are found suitable after interview are called for physical examination. A
Panel of doctors to insure that they are healthy and physically fit for the job does a
medical check-up of such candidates. A proper medical examination will also ensure that
the candidates selected do not suffer from any serious desirous which may create
problems in future.
Checking Reference:
Generally, every candidate if required to state in the application form, the name and
address of at least two responsible persons who know him. The reference may not give
their Frank opinion unless promises made that in all information will be kept strictly
confidential. Moreover the information given by them may be biased in the form of
candidate.
Final Approval:
The candidates who are found suitable after the medical check-up and background
investigation are formally appointed by issuing appointment letter to them. They are
asked to join duty by the specified date. No selection procedure is foolproof and the best
way judge a person is by observing him working on the job. Candidate who gives
satisfactory during the probationary period are made permanent.
Do not discard applicants who “stopped out” to provide care for a child,or for
maternity leave.
Consider the dynamics of the interview – is the candidate being interviewed in an
environment that is representative of the office environment.
Understand questions that cannot be asked regarding family,children, pregnancy, etc.
Provide medical insurance that covers the full range of medical needs of women
employees, including reproductive health care.
Provide paid sick-leave policies for employees’ illness and illness of spouses, lifetime
partners, dependent children, and elderly parents.
Provide life insurance, disability and pension programs that are Non discriminatory
on the basis of gender .
Have clear and vigorously enforced sex, race and sexual orientation discrimination
and sexual harassment policies and include a statement about these policies in the
advertisement of the position.
Before attempting to diversify a staff and make it more gender equitable, you
must tackle issues such as, “gender stereotyping; discrimination in hiring, pay,
and promotions; family issues; and sexual orientation discrimination. There are
five areas critical to this process.
Open communication.
The electric power industry provides the production and delivery of electric energy, often
known as power, or electricity, in sufficient quantities to areas that
need electricity through a grid connection. The grid distributes electrical energy to
customers. Electric power is generated by central power stations or by distributed
generation.
3.1 Organization
The electric power industry is commonly split up into four processes. These
are electricity generation such as a power station, electric power transmission, electricity
distribution and electricity retailing. In many countries, electric power companies own the
whole infrastructure from generating stations to transmission and distribution
infrastructure. For this reason, electric power is viewed as a natural monopoly. The
industry is generally heavily regulated, often with price controls and is
frequently government-owned and operated.
The nature and state of market reform of the electricity market often determines whether
electric companies are able to be involved in just some of these processes without having
to own the entire infrastructure, or citizens choose which components of infrastructure to
patronise. In countries where electricity provision is deregulated, end-users of electricity
may opt for more costlygreen electricity.
3.2 Generation
All forms of electricity generation have positive and negative aspects. Technology will
probably eventually declare the most preferred forms, but in a market economy, the
options with less overall costs generally will be chosen above other sources. It is not clear
yet which form can best meet the necessary energy demands or which process can best
solve the demand for electricity. There are indications that renewable
energy and distributed generation are becoming more viable in economic terms. A diverse
mix of generation sources reduces the risks of electricity price spikes.
3.3 History
Although electricity had been known to be produced as a result of the chemical reactions
that take place in an electrolytic cell since Alessandro Voltadeveloped the voltaic pile in
1800, its production by this means was, and still is, expensive. In 1831, Michael
Faraday devised a machine that generated electricity from rotary motion, but it took
almost 50 years for the technology to reach a commercially viable stage. In 1878, in
the US, Thomas Edisondeveloped and sold a commercially viable replacement for gas
lighting and heating using locally generated and distributed direct current electricity.
The world's first public electricity supply was provided in late 1881, when the streets of
the Surrey town of Godalming in the UK were lit with electric light. This system was
powered from a water wheel on the River Wey, which drove a Siemens alternator that
supplied a number of arc lamps within the town. This supply scheme also provided
electricity to a number of shops and premises to light 34 incandescent Swan light bulbs.
Coinciding with this, in early 1882, Edison opened the world’s first steam-powered
electricity generating station at Holborn Viaduct in London, where he had entered into an
agreement with the City Corporation for a period of three months to provide street
lighting. In time he had supplied a number of local consumers with electric light. The
method of supply was direct current (DC).
It was later on in the year in September 1882 that Edison opened the Pearl Street Power
Station in New York City and again it was a DC supply. It was for this reason that the
generation was close to or on the consumer's premises as Edison had no means of voltage
conversion. The voltage chosen for any electrical system is a compromise. Increasing
the voltage reduces the current and therefore reduces resistive losses in the cable.
Unfortunately it increases the danger from direct contact and also increases the
required insulation thickness. Furthermore some load types were difficult or impossible
to make for higher voltages.
Additionally, Robert Hammond, in December 1881, demonstrated the new electric light
in the Sussex town of Brighton in the UK for a trial period. The ensuing success of this
installation enabled Hammond to put this venture on both a commercial and legal footing,
as a number of shop owners wanted to use the new electric light. Thus the Hammond
Electricity Supply Co. was launched. Whilst the Godalming and Holborn Viaduct
Schemes closed after a few years the Brighton Scheme continued on, and supply was in
1887 made available for 24 hours per day.
Nikola Tesla, who had worked for Edison for a short time and understood the electrical
theory in a way that Edison did not, devised an alternative system using alternating
current. Tesla realised that while doubling the voltage would halve the current and reduce
losses by three-quarters, only an alternating current system allowed
the transformation between voltage levels in different parts of the system. This allowed
efficient high voltages for distribution where their risks could easily be mitigated by good
design while still allowing fairly safe voltages to be supplied to the loads. He went on to
develop the overall theory of his system, devising theoretical and practical alternatives for
all of the direct current appliances then in use, and patented his novel ideas in 1887, in
thirty separate patents.

Risk of fire
Risk of Electrocution (Electric shocks)
Electrocution is the passage through human body, which is dangerous .The flow of
current through human body, affects two vital functions
Breathing
Heart Beat
Risk of fire
Poorly insulated wiring or loose connections are enough to create fire hazards a
portion of the current which normally flows in the conductor can find a way back to
the earth through these "leaks" and through materials with varying degrees of
conductivity. These materials are not intended to conduct current, and may get heated
up to such a degree that they will set fire to whatever they are in contact with
(insulation, wood etc.). This is the start of fire.
Solution
Earth Leakage Circuit Breakers installed in the circuit senses these leakage currents and
isolates the faulty circuit thereby ensuring safety against the hazards of earth leakage. It is
mandatory to install an ELCB in the incoming circuit for all.

6.2 SUGGESTIONS
SUGGESTIONS FOR THE IMPROVEMENT OF THE SYSTEM AND
PRACTICES OF RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION PROCEDURE
The following are the suggestions received from the respondents of the questionnaire.
These suggestions are based on their awareness regarding the Recruitment and Selection
procedure.
1. During the selection process not only the experienced candidates but also the fresh
candidate should be selected so as to avail the innovation and enthusiasm of new
candidates.
2. In the organization where summer training facility prevailing then such kind of
practices must be adopted so that the student can learn and again from their practical
views.
3. .Candidates should be kept on the job for some time period; if suitable they should be
recruited. During the selection process, the candidates should be made relaxed and at
ease.
4. Company should follow all the steps of recruitment and selection for the selection of
the candidates.
5. Selection process should be less time consuming.
6. The interview should not be boring, monotonous. It should be made interesting. There
must be proper communication between the Interviewer and the Interviewee at the
time of interview.
7. Evaluation and control of recruitment and selection should be done for fair
judgement.
8. Methods used for selection of candidates should be done carefully and systematically
9. The attainment of goals and objective of any organization depend on the type and
quality of its manpower. To have right type of men at right job and at right time, the
recruitment and selection procedure should be fair and impartial.
10. This is indeed an important suggestion that authorities concerned should immediately
look into the matter as and when arise and try to implement decisions.
Adaptability to Globalization
The HR professionals are expected and required to keep in tune with the changing times,
i.e. the changes taking place across the globe. HR should maintain the timeliness of the
process
Lack of Motivation
Recruitment is considered to be a thankless job. Even if the organization is achieving
results, HR department or professionals are not thanked for recruiting the right employees
and performers.
Process Analysis
The immediacy and speed of the recruitment process are the main concerns of the HR in
recruitment. The process should be flexible, adaptive and responsive to the immediate
requirements. The recruitment process should also be cost effective.
Strategic Prioritization
The emerging new systems are both an opportunity as well as a challenge for the HR
professionals. Therefore, reviewing staffing needs and prioritizing the tasks to meet the
changes in the market has become a challenge for the recruitment professionals.
1. One of the limitations of this project study is of the time limitation. Since the duration
of our project study is of 8 weeks, it is somehow difficult to fully know any
big organization like Havells in this limited time period.
2. Senior managers and others officers in Havells are also very busy. They do not have
enough time for solving our queries in details.
3. It may be possible that responses of people may not be true. It contain bias
information.
6.5 CONCLUSIONS
Based on the analysis of the questionnaire responses, the following are the conclusion of
the study.
The organization follows the rules and regulation involved in their Recruitment and
Selection Procedure of the organization. The managers are fully satisfied with the
existing Recruitment and Selection procedure.The recruitment and Selection procedure
should not be lengthy.To some extent a clear picture of required candidates should be
made in order to search for appropriate candidates.The Recruitment and Selection
procedure should be impartial.
In havells India limited recruitment is done through internal and external sources . The
internal sources of recruitment is done by the company itself in the form of direct
recruitment from colleges . In this case maximum 4 candidates are selected. The external
sources of recruitment is done through consultancies.
In the case of selection of candidate for top level position, the applicant have to go
through interviews with directors . In the case selection is for the employee of middle
level management he or she will be interviewed by the department heads. The candidates
have to do presentation before the heads after collecting the relevant information about
the products of the company.
The qualification should be an engineer and MBA from premier business school. While
selection, preference should be given to the candidate who have work experience in any
of the company which deals with electrical equipment.
If recruitment is for any managerial position more importance is given to the background,
educational qualification, talent, communication skills, experience, etc.
