of human resources in achieving organizational goals and objectives. An efficient and satisfied
work force is the most significant factor in organizational effectiveness and managerial
excellence. Compulsions of modern business environment are, however, promoting corporate
management to systematically review their current attitude beliefs and policies towards human
resource for they contribute most significantly to the survival and growth of organization.
Enlightened and progressive managements have there for come to believe that people not a

constructively canalize and consciously develop the potential of their human resource. To
achieve a organizational goal there should be a proper human effort. To get maximum output

Recruitment and Selection

Almost all disciplines connected with human element have developed gradually, influenced by all
other areas of knowledge. In the same way Human resource management is influenced by the
dynamic nature of human resources in addition to other areas of knowledge. The field of human
resource management, as it currently exists represents a crystallization of a variety of historical
and contemporary influence”. The approach in particular towards human resource management
has undergone transformation through different stages. And this process of transformation is still
going on. The contributions of Robert Owen, Charles Babbage, F.W. Taylor, and Elton Mayo are
noteworthy on the evolution of Human Resource Management. Robert Owen became concerned
about the evils and in humanity he saw in the process of industrialization. He therefore advocated,
“Developing more attention to the human beings”.

Charles Babbage (1792- 1871) supported Adam Smith’s concept of division if labor
enhancing employees productivity. Viewed through the perspective of management, the scientific
management movement actually created the need for effective personal/ human resource
management. Taylor had perfected Babbage’s ideas between 1856 and 1915. Taylor argued that
the individuals selected to perform the tasks as possible. The famous Hawthorne experiments
conducted by Elton Mayo and his Harvard colleagues during 1930’s and 1940’s demonstrated
that employees productivity was effected not only by the way of the job was designed and the
manner in which employees were rewarded economically, but by certain social and psychological
factors as well. The human relation movement led to the wide scale implementation of behavioral
science technique in industry for the first time which included supervisory training program,
emphasizing support and concern for workers, counseling program for workers etc. The
movement was also influenced by the growing strength of trade unions during the late 1930’s and
1940’s. The rise of unionism during this period was due to the passage of the Wagner Act which
glance workers the legal right to bargain collectively with employees over matters concerning,
wages, job-security, benefits and many conditions of work. Thus slowly it was recognized that
each employees is a unique and highly complex individual with different wants, needs and values.
What motivated one employee may not motivate another, and being happy or feeling good may

have trend towards treating employees as ‘Resources’ emerged. In the year 1936, two
professional bodies were emerged they are The India In statute of Professional Management
(IIPM) with Calcutta as the head quarters and the national Institute of Labor Management
(NILM) with Bombay as the head quarters. These two places were premier centers of traditional
industry in pre-independent India.

Corporate power was sought avowedly as a means of performing the welfare work more
effectively rather than in the Second World War and independence, the welfare needs of the
working class grew along with rising expectations. During the 1960’s in India, the personnel
function began to grow beyond the welfare aspect, with the three major areas of practice i.e.,
Labor welfare, Industrial Relations and Personnel Management.

The accelerated growth of the public sector in the national economy resulted in a shift in
focus toward professional of management. By the 1970, a shift in personnel profession values was
discernible; it was a change from a concern for welfare to concentration efficiency. In 1980’s,
professionals began to talk about new technologies, Human Resource Management (HRM). It is
well recognized everywhere that human competency development is an essential prerequisite for
any growth or development effort. Research, experimentation and experience in the field of HRM
have grown enormously in the last decade.

Pharmaceutical Industry Profile

SVIM, S.D.G.S, College, Hindupur 13


Recruitment and Selection

A pharmaceutical industry profile covers the main features of pharmaceutical business. Though
the terms ‘profile and report’ are used interchangeably in today, a subtle difference exists between
the two. A profile is a short description, covering all the significant issues, while a report covers a
specific topic in detail. A pharmaceutical industry profile contains the highlights of
pharmaceutical business while the pharmaceutical industry report comprises a more detailed
account of the business.

Now a pharmaceutical industry profile more or less means a pharmaceutical industry report. The
distinction between a profile and a report is, however, maintained in case of companies. Usually,
company profiles contain highlights while company reports, the detailed analysis.

A pharmaceutical industry profile contains the highlights of different facets of pharmaceutical


business such as:

• industry structure
• major markets
• major players.

The pharmaceutical industry profiles can be prepared at the country, region and global levels. A
US pharmaceutical industry profile comprises highlights of the pharmaceutical business in the
USA while a global pharmaceutical industry profile covers pharmaceutical business across the
globe.

A pharmaceutical industry profile usually begins with a broader study of the industry. An ideal
starting point is a detailed pharmaceutical industry report. The preparation of a pharmaceutical
industry profile entails identifying the main points in a report and presenting them crisply with
supporting tables and charts. The process resembles précis writing, but demands much more than
summarising skills. The identification of the key portions of the report, for instance, calls for a
deep knowledge of the pharmaceutical industry. The composition of highlights into a whole, that
provides a good understanding of the industry calls for high level of editorial and design skills.

Now most business research firms focus on preparing detailed pharmaceutical industry reports for
business reasons. Most consumers want knowledge in a nutshell plus the option of digging deeper

SVIM, S.D.G.S, College, Hindupur 14


Recruitment and Selection

if they want to. The report format fits the bill perfectly. For business professionals hard-pressed
for time, the front end of a report contains an executive summary of the entire report. In some
ways, the executive summary is equivalent to a profile. One key difference between a profile and
an executive summary is lack of visuals in the latter. The executive summary relies on words to
get ideas across.

In theory, the executive summary can be sold on a standalone basis, but business research firms
show little inclination to do so because of the time, effort and money involved in preparing
reports. The consumers may not be keen to buy an executive summary either, for the fear of
missing out on details. The pharmaceutical industry is, for instance, a technical industry where
details matter.

Owing to business and market reasons as well as the nature of the industry itself, a
pharmaceutical industry profile has become a rare commodity. Some industry associations and
governments continue to prepare a pharmaceutical industry profile, but such profiles either
resemble reports or contain a lot of promotional material.

Given the rising complexity of pharmaceutical business due to technological advances and
globalization, a report is probably a better medium for communicating ideas. Some online
business research firms have begun to prepare reports in a modular fashion and selling modules
on a standalone basis. In this model, for example, additional detail is just a click away. If this
trend picks up, pharmaceutical industry profiles might make a comeback.

ADVANTAGE INDIA
Competent workforce: India has a pool of personnel with high managerial and technical
competence as also skilled workforce. It has an educated work force and English is commonly
used. Professional services are easily available.

Cost-effective chemical synthesis: Its track record of development, particularly in the area of
improved cost-beneficial chemical synthesis for various drug molecules is excellent. It provides a
wide variety of bulk drugs and exports sophisticated bulk drugs.

Legal & Financial Framework: India has a 53 year old democracyand hence has a solid legal

SVIM, S.D.G.S, College, Hindupur 15


Recruitment and Selection

framework and strong financial markets. There is already an established international industry
and business community.

Information & Technology: It has a good network of world-class educational institutions and
established strengths in Information Technology.

Globalization: The country is committed to a free market economy and globalization. Above all,
it has a 70 million middle class market, which is continuously growing.

Consolidation: For the first time in many years, the international pharmaceutical industry is
finding great opportunities in India. The process of consolidation, which has become a
generalized phenomenon in the world pharmaceutical industry, has started taking place in India.

THE GROWTH SCENARIO


India's US$ 3.1 billion pharmaceutical industry is growing at the rate of 14 percent per year. It is
one of the largest and most advanced among the developing countries.

Over 20,000 registered pharmaceutical manufacturers exist in the country. The domestic
pharmaceuticals industry output is expected to exceed Rs260 billion in the financial year 2002,
which accounts for merely 1.3% of the global pharmaceutical sector. Of this, bulk drugs will
account for Rs 54 bn (21%) and formulations, the remaining Rs 210 bn (79%). In financial year
2001, imports were Rs 20 bn while exports were Rs87 bn.

STEPS TO STRENGTHEN THE INDUSTRY


Indian companies need to attain the right product-mix for sustained future growth. Core
competencies will play an important role in determining the future of many Indian pharmaceutical
companies in the post product-patent regime after 2005. Indian companies, in an effort to
consolidate their position, will have to increasingly look at merger and acquisition options of
either companies or products. This would help them to offset loss of new product options,
improve their R&D efforts and improve distribution to penetrate markets.

Research and development has always taken the back seat amongst Indian pharmaceutical
companies. In order to stay competitive in the future, Indian companies will have to refocus and
invest heavily in R&D.

SVIM, S.D.G.S, College, Hindupur 16


Recruitment and Selection

The Indian pharmaceutical industry also needs to take advantage of the recent advances in
biotechnology and information technology. The future of the industry will be determined by how
well it markets its products to several regions and distributes risks, its forward and backward
integration capabilities, its R&D, its consolidation through mergers and acquisitions, co-
marketing and licensing agreements.

RECRUITMENT STRATAGIES:

SVIM, S.D.G.S, College, Hindupur 21


Recruitment and Selection

1) In sourcing or out sourcing:

Companies recruit the candidate employ them trained and develop them and utilize the human
resource of these candidates is called in sourcing.

Some organizations employ and develop the candidates with a view to provide the human
resource to other organization. Some companies depend for their human resource requirement
on such external whose core business is to provide human resource .This strategy is called out
sourcing.

2) Vast and fast source:

The fast developing IT industry and high technology oriented industry invariably require vast
human resource within the short period .The best strategy to get vast human resource
immediately is internet.

RECRUITMENT PROCESS:

Recruitment refers to the process of identifying and attracting job seekers so as to build a poll of
qualified job applicants. The process comprises five interrelated stages.

1) Planning: Involves Translating Likely Vacancies & Info on Nature of Jobs into sets of
Objectives/Targets specifying,
i. Number of Applicants.

ii. Types of Applicants to be contacted.

iii. Number to be contacted.

Organization nearly always plans to attract more than they hire. Recruitment program task reflects
the estimate of number necessary to fill vacancies with qualified ones.

SVIM, S.D.G.S, College, Hindupur 22


Recruitment and Selection

*Types to be contacted:
Type of people to be informed about ‘Openings’ depends on Tasks, Responsibilities,
Qualifications, Experience expected.

2) Strategy Development: Knowing How many & what type of Recruits Needed Serious
consideration given to:
i. Make or Buy.

ii. Technological Sophistication of Recruitment-Selection Devices.

iii. Where to Look.

iv. Sources of recruitment (Internal, External).

i. Make or Buy Decision: Organization to Decide: Make is Hire Less Skilled & Invest in buy is
hire skilled & professionals. Bought-Employees begin immediately while Made-Ones Late-
Starters. High remuneration demand (Buy) may outweigh Benefits

ii. Technological Sophistication: Relates to Methods used in Re-Selection. Use of Computers


Scan Global Sources & video tapes, help both Employers- Job Seekers in initial Screening.

iii. Where to Look: Generally Organization look to National for professional/


managerial, Regional/Local for Techies & Local for Blue-collared.

iv. Sources of recruitment (Internal, External): The sources of recruitment are broadly divided
into internal source and external source. Internal source are the source with in organizational
pursuits. External sources are the source outside organization.

3) Searching: Once Recruitment Plan & Strategy are worked out, Search Process begins. Search
Process has two steps:

SVIM, S.D.G.S, College, Hindupur 23


Recruitment and Selection

a) Source Activation.

b) Selling.

a) Source Activation:

 Sources & Search Methods are activated once Employee Requisition Issued & Verified by
Line Managers.

 Applicant are screened & invited for Interview.

b) Selling:

It concerns communications. Organization does the lot to Attract but Control to Over-Sell In
selling the Organization, both deserve Attention. Effectiveness of any Recruitment-Advertisement

higher level jobs due to: availability of most suitable candidate for jobs relatively or equally to the
external source, to meet the trade union demands and due to the policy of the organization to
motivate the present employees.

2) Present temporary: Organization finds this source to fill the vacancies relatively at the lower
level owing to the availability of suitable candidates or trade union pressures or in order to
motivate them on the present job.

3) Retired employees: Generally, a particular organization retrenches the employees due to lack
of work. The organization takes the candidates for employment from the retrenched employees

Factors Affecting Recruitment:

Many factors affect the Recruitment program. The factors can be classified as organizational or
internal factors and environmental or external factors.

A) Organizational Factors:

SVIM, S.D.G.S, College, Hindupur 29


Recruitment and Selection

Several factors influence the success or failure of a Recruitment program. Some of them are
described below.
 A major factor that determines the success of a Recruitment program is the reputation of
the organization. An organization’s reputation depends on its size, area of business, profitability,
management etc., in addition to its philosophy and values. For example, a profitable firm known
for its strong values would attract a better response to a Recruitment drive than a loss-making
firm, known for its lack of values.
 The organizational culture and the attitude of its management towards employees also
influence a candidate’s decision to apply to an organization. An organization that is
known for its employee friendly policies would certainly be preferred over an orthodox
and rigid organization.

 Another factor that contributes to the success of a Recruitment program is the


Geographical location of the vacant position. Prospective candidates might not be eager to
work in a remote place unless they belong to that place.

 The amounts of resources allocated also determine the success of a Recruitment drive.
Allocation is in turn dependent on the critically of the vacant position and the time
available to fill the position. For example, if a critical position in an organization needs to
be filled in a month time, substantial resources may have to be allocated to the task. In
contrast, if a non-critical position were to be filled up in three month’s time the quantum
of resources to be allocated for the recruitment would be much lower

 The channels and methods used to advertise the vacancy also determine the success of a
Recruitment program. The reach of advertising has to be wide and its effect deep enough
to attract the right talent.

 The emoluments that the company offers also influence the decision of a candidate and
thereby the success of the recruitment program.

B) External factors:

SVIM, S.D.G.S, College, Hindupur 30


Recruitment and Selection

Apart from the organizational/internal factors, some external/environmental factors also


determine the effectiveness of a recruitment program. Some of them are mentioned below.
The situation in the Labor market, the demand for manpower, the demographics, the knowledge
and the skill set available all determine the response to a recruitment programmed. For example,
if there are more fresh engineering graduates available in the job market then a firm looking for
fresh engineering graduates might get a phenomenal response.
The stage of development of the industry to which the organization belongs also influences the
results of a Recruitment program. Culture, Social attributes and beliefs also impact the
effectiveness of a Recruitment program. Finally, the law of the land and the legal implications
involved also play a role in designing a Recruitment program and determining its effectiveness.

SELECTION:
After identifying the sources of human resource searching for prospective employees and
stimulate them to apply for jobs in an organization, the management has to perform the function
of selecting the right employees at the right time.

SVIM, S.D.G.S, College, Hindupur 33


Recruitment and Selection

Selection involves choosing personnel to fill specific jobs in the organization on the basis
of educational qualifications, training, skills, abilities and personality of the person available for
the jobs. Selection is necessary because some of the applicants may not be suitable for the jobs in
the enterprise. Hence the process of selection is a negative process as more candidates are rejected
than hired in contrast with the positive program of recruitment which seeks to induce as many
persons as possible to apply for a job in an enterprise.

THE SELECTION PROCEDURE CANNOT BE EFFECTIVE UNTIL AND UNLESS:


1. Requirement of the job to be filled, have been clearly specified.
2. Employee specification [physical, mental, social] have been clearly specified.
3. Candidates for screening have been attracted.

SIGNIFICANCE OF SELECTION PROCESS:


Selection of personnel to man to organization is a crucial complex and continuing
function. If right personnel are selected, the remaining functions of personnel management will be
at optimum level and employer and employee relation will be congenial .If faulty selection is
made the employee will be a liability to the organization.

SELECTION PROCESS:

Selection is a long term process commencing from the preliminary interview of applicants and
ending with the contract of employment. In practice, the process differs among organizations and
between two different jobs with in the organization. Selection procedure for senior managers will
be long drawn and rigorous but it is simple and short for the low cadre employees.

PROCEDURE FOR SELECTION:

The main purpose of selection is to find out the right man for the right man. A
typical selection procedure has seven steps. Each step has a purpose and represents a technique to
bar the candidate.

SVIM, S.D.G.S, College, Hindupur 34


Recruitment and Selection

According to “E. B. Filippo”. There are 8 steps in personnel selection:

1) Preliminary interview: This is essentially sorting process in which prospective


candidates are given the necessary information about the nature of the job and the
organization necessary information also obtained from the candidates about their
education, skills, expected etc. suppose if the candidate is found suitable is selected for the
further screening.

2) Application blank: The application form is a basic tool in the selection process. It
provides information about the applicants to make the employer evaluate the candidate’s
suitability. It is the starting point of selection process. Small firms design no application
forms and ask the person to write details about their age, education, work experience, sex,
and material status on a paper. However, big companies use various types of application
forms for various jobs. An application form consists of following information.
 Identifying information-name, address, telephone number etc.
 Personnel information, age, place, of birth, material status.
 Physical characteristics -height, weight, eyesight.
 Family back ground
 Education -academic, technical, professional
 Experience-jobs held, duties performed, salaries drawn.

3) Reference checks: Reference checks are those, which are mentioned to the applicants, the
names and address of those persons who know him well. An employee normally makes a
investigating on the reference supplied by the person and searches into his part
employment behavior when any problem arises.

4) Employment tests: Applicants who can screen and preliminary interview are called for
selection test. A test provides a systematic process of comparing behavior, attitudes and

performance of two (or) more persons. Tests are helpful in better matching of job and the
candidates.
Types of testing (I, A, I, A, P)
 Inelegance test
 Aptitude test
 Interest test
 Achievement test
 Personality test.
5) Employment interview: An interview is an oral conversation between two persons. It
involves a personal, observational and face to face appraisal of persons for employment.
Interview is an essential element of selection and no selection procedure is completed with
out one (or) more personal interviews. It serves 3 purposes:
1) Obtaining information about the back ground education training and interest
of the person.
2) Giving information to persons about the company job and personal policies.
3) Establishing a friendly relationship between the employees and the person.

Principles of interviews:
 Preparation.
 Setting:
a) Physical setting.
b) Mental setting.
 Conduct of interview.
 Close.
 Evaluation.
 Approval by supervisor.
 Physical/medical examination.

SVIM, S.D.G.S, College, Hindupur 36


Recruitment and Selection

 Induction.

6) Approval by the supervisor: At this point, the third interview is conducted we preserve
the equality of authority, responsibility. The supervisor can generate the personality,
ability and other qualities. In the most of the organizations, selection processes carried out
by the human resource for departmental the candidates who are shortly listed by the
departments are finally approved by the executives of the concerned department.

7) Physical examination: Applicants who have crossed the above stages are sent for
medical/physical examination either to the companies physician(or)to a medical officer to
examine whether the candidate is physically fit for the job(or)not(or)whether the candidate
have any health problem.

RECENT TRENDS IN SELECTION:


New trend have been emerging in selection techniques along with other areas of
human resource management. The recent trends in selection include:
1. Selection by invitation.
2. Leasing.

SVIM, S.D.G.S, College, Hindupur 37


Recruitment and Selection

3. 360 degree selection program.

SELECTION BY INVITATION:
Management observes the performance of key executives of competitors. If the
performance of the key excellent then the management invites such key executives to the
organization by offering better salary and benefits.

LEASING:

Presently the organization needs to employ specialists to take up the highly skilled jobs. In
fact the changes in the technology demands highly skilled employees. It would be very
difficult to small organization to employ the skilled employees as they demand high pay.
Added to such employees may not have much work. These factors enabled consultancy
organization to employ experts and depute these employees to the needy companies on
lease. This type of arrangement is beneficial to the consultants, employees on lease and
the industrial organization.

360 DEGREE SELECTION PROGRAMME: Normally superiors administer the


selection tests and interviews .They judge the fit between the job and the candidates. But,
the employee skills, knowledge and performance affect not only superiors but also
subordinates at the same level. Hence, the organization started involving the subordinates
and the employees of the same level in administering the employment tests and
interviews.

Observation in Micro labs

Analysis of Recruitment and Selection in Micro labs:

“Ask leaders what their biggest challenge is, and you get the same
answer: finding, attracting and keeping talented people. Ask talented

SVIM, S.D.G.S, College, Hindupur 38


Recruitment and Selection

people what their biggest career challenge is and you will hear the same
refrain: finding good people to work with and to work for”.

Attracting new talent to the organization is a key task, especially when the
talent in question is in short supply. Recruitment needs to take its place within the
HR cycle as one strategy among others in a changing market place. Other strategies,
such as developing current staff, should not be neglected in favour of external
recruitment. Recruitment should ideally not be focused proactively on bringing into
the organization the kind of skills and experience, which cannot easily be built from
within. With too little external recruitment organizations processes and staff can
start to stagnate. Conversely, if recruitment from outside is the only means by which
senior positions are filled, internal candidates soon realize that they must leave the
organization, if they want to be promoted. A well-designed recruitment process can
attract good candidates and give the employer useful indications of future
performance. Candidates are usually more positive about the organization if they
can see a clear link between the recruitment process and job. Structured interviews,
using behavioral and critical incident interviewing can be helpful as they allow
specific job related areas.

Pschycometrics, which is relevant to the work content and realistic simulation, can
also be useful. Simulation in particular allows managers to see a candidate
performance at first hand.

In essence, the successful attracting and recruiting of new talent means that the
needs and offers of both the organization and the individual need to hurry up. The
‘fit’ has to be in right terms of skills and experience as well as values and needs. It is
therefore important that both parties are as far as possible throughout the
recruitment process. There will inevitably be process of negotiation around those
respective needs, usually overpaid or the type and level of work on offered.

Recruiting the persons

Recruiting has become a common practice with companies nowadays. There is always a
requirement of professionally qualified and skilled staff in any organization. With the increasing
demands of the industry, there is not enough time to get into the complexities of selecting a
candidate. This is where an outsourcing of manpower comes in.

Organizations both large and small are largely hiring companies to provide them with outsourced
manpower. They no longer want to get into the hassles and the long process of recruiting.

Companies providing outsource of manpower take care of everything for their clients. They will
browse through loads of profiles, short-list candidates, call them, test their skills according to the
specified requirement and then pass them on to their clients. There are certain skills that are
required for this kind of work. A professional should have excellent Communication skills, the
ability to judge people, a good power of understanding and grasping. It is only then that he or she
can select candidates for its clients.

There is a two way responsibility. Firstly to provide skilled manpower to their clients and
secondly to provide good opportunities to the candidates who apply through them. This means a
lot of responsibility and there has to be clarity from both ends to enable the manpower staffing
companies to provide the right results to both its counterparts. It may sound easy but it is a
difficult task.
