EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Conceptually the mechanism of stock market is very simple. People who are exposed to the
same risk come together and agree that if anyone of the person suffers loss the other will
share the loss & make good to the person who lost.
The initial part of the project focuses on the job & responsibilities. I was allotted as a
summer trainee. I also make the readers aware about the techniques & methodology used to
bring this report alive. Though India has a very big untapped market but the players will
not flourish unless they change the way the customers are being served. Given the
awareness level of today customers every player has to treat with care and make the
customer feel that he is the king. Number of Online Share trader in India has crossed theline. More and more customers are coming under this umbrella and many of the existing
one are changing pavilion.
So customers retention and satisfaction is now more important as it was before. Players
keep coming with new schemes in order to attract new customers and retain the existing
one. This is being supplemented with increased advertising and brand building efforts.
Success of any organization depends upon its being proactive.
I consider lucky as I got an opportunity to work with Sharekhan Ltd which is showing
phenomenal growth and success in the Securities. This project is an effort to do a depth
study and analysis of recruitment and selection processes used at the company.

Chapter I
Introduction
1.1 General Introduction about the sector:
The share industry of India contains a large number of broking firms that deal with the
buying and selling of shares through two different stock exchanges markets. These markets
are National Stock Exchange and Bombay Stock Exchange respectively. All stock
exchanges perform similar functions with respect to the listing, trading, and clearing of
securities, differing only in their administrative machinery for handling these functions.
Most stock exchanges are auction markets, in which prices are determined by competitive
bidding. Astock exchange is said to be an organized market for the trading of stocks and
bonds. Such markets were originally open to all, but at present only members of the
owning association may buy and sell directly. Members, or stock brokers, buy and sell for
themselves or for others, charging commissions for their services. A stock may be bought
or sold only if it is listed on an exchange.
The need for stock exchanges developed out of early trading activities in agricultural and
other commodities. During the middle Ages, traders found it easier to use credit that
required supporting documentation of drafts, notes and bills of exchanges. The first stock
exchange in India, Bombay Stock Exchange was established in 1875 as 'The Native Share
and Stockbrokers Association' and has evolved over the years into its present status as the
premier stock exchange in the country. It may be noted that BSE is the oldest stock
exchange in Asia. India's other major stock exchange National Stock Exchange (NSE),promoted by leading financial institutions, and was established in April 1993. Over the
years, several stock exchanges have been established in the major cities of India. There are
now 23 recognized stock exchanges. Today, most of the global stock exchanges have
become highly efficient, computerized organizations. Computerized networks also made it
possible to connect to each other and have fostered the growth of an open, global securities

market. Online Trading is a service offered on the Internet for purchase and sale of shares.
In the real world, investors place orders via stockbrokers either verbally (personally or
telephonically) or in a written form (fax).
1.2). Industry Profile:
A. Origin and Development of the Industry
Over the last decade, the Indian stock market has seen many changes and major break through.
The stock market has seen rapid growth over the past decade with top companies listing their
shares at a higher price. However, for all practical purposes, the real beginning occurred in
the middle of the nineteenth century after the enactment of the companies Act in 1850,
which introduced the features of limited liability and generated investor interest incorporate securities. It consists of two major Exchanges. These are known as Bombay Stock
Exchange and National Stock Exchange respectively. The Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and
the National Stock Exchange of India Ltd (NSE) are the two primary exchanges in India. In
addition, there are 22 Regional Stock Exchanges. However, the BSE and NSE have
established themselves as the two leading exchanges and account for about 80 per cent of
the equity volume traded in India. The NSE and BSE are equal in size in terms of daily
traded volume. The average daily turnover at the exchanges has increased from Rs 851
crore in 1997-98 to Rs 1,284 crore in 1998-99 and further to Rs 2,273 crore in 1999-2000
(April - August 1999). NSE has around 1500 shares listed with a total market capitalization
of around Rs 9, 21,500 crore.
The Exchanges allow shares to be listed that increase financial transactions in the stock
broking industry. However, the problems that were faced by the stock market were of the
global financial crisis. This crisis created a down turn in the stock market. A large number
of volumes and stocks started to fall at the Exchanges. Many investors saw fall in theirshare holdings that led to them not completing their due payments. Debts started to rise for
these share holders that had large number of shares. The stock market is expected to rise as
the recession period is over. Now the market is hoping to rise over the next few years.

But as business and industry expanded and the economy assumed more complex nature, the
need for permanent finance arose. Entrepreneurs needed money for long term whereas
investors demanded liquidity the facility to convert their investment into cash at any given
time.
CAPITAL MARKET:
The capital market is a system or framework, which facilitates savings and investment. The
securities markets provide channels for the allocation of savings to investments. Through
the capital market companies can raise resources from the people (investors) and
households can invest their savings in industrial or commercial activities to earn a return
Hence, the capital market is a mechanism by which capital (funds) moves from those with
surplus funds to those in need of funds. Savings are linked to investments through a range
of financial products called securities.
PRIMARY MARKET:
The primary market is an intermittent and discrete market where the initially listed shares
are traded first time, changing hands from the listed company to the investors. It refers to
the process through which the companies, the issuers of stocks, acquire capital by offering
their stocks to investors who supply the capital. In other words primary market is that part
of the capital markets that deals with the issuance of new securities. Companies,
governments or public sector institutions can obtain funding through the sale of a new
stock or bond issue. This is typically done through a syndicate of securities dealers. The
process of selling new issues to investors is called underwriting. In the case of a new stock
issue, this sale is called an initial public offering (IPO). Dealers earn a commission that isbuilt into the price of the security offering, though it can be found in the prospectus.
SECONDARY MARKET:

The secondary market is an on-going market, which is equipped and organized with a
place, facilities and other resources required for trading securities after their initial offering.
It refers to a specific place where securities transaction among many and unspecified
persons is carried out.
1.4 THE NATIONAL STOCK EXCHANGE OF INDIA:
The National Stock Exchange of India (NSE) situated in Mumbai. It is the largest and most
advanced exchange with 1016 companies listed and 726 trading members. The NSE is
owned by the group of leading financial institutions such as Indian Bank or Life Insurance
Corporation of India. However, in the totally de-metalized Exchange, the ownership as
well as the management does not have a right to trade on the Exchange. Only qualified
traders can be involved in the securities trading.
NSE is mutually-owned by a group of leading financial institutions, banks, insurance
companies and other financial intermediaries in India. In October 2007, the equity market
capitalization of the companies listed on the NSE was US$ 1.46 trillion that made it the
second largest stock exchange in South Asia. This proves that the NSE has large scope for
the stock industry. NSE is believed to be the third largest Stock Exchange in the world interms of the number of trades in equities.
The National Stock Exchange of India was incorporated in November 1992 as a tax-paying
company. In April 1993, it was recognized as a stock exchange under the Securities
Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956.
NSE offers a wide range of products for multiple markets including equity shares, mutual
funds, etc. The NSE has more than one thousand companies listed in the capital marketwhere top companies are traded actively by common investors.
In order to improve market efficiency and to set international benchmarks, the NSE
launched the NSE Research Initiative in January, 2000. This was done to develop a better
view and understanding of the securities market in India. Therefore, all the records

including latest events can be found on NSE`s website. Capital market reforms in India and
the launch of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) accelerated the
incorporation of the second Indian stock exchange called the National Stock Exchange
(NSE) in 1992. After a few years of operations, the NSE has become the largest stock
exchange in India.
THE BOMBAY STOCK EXCHANGE OF INDIA:
The Bombay Stock Exchange is one of the oldest stock exchanges in Asia. It was
established as "The Native Share & Stock Brokers Association" in 1875. It is the first
stock exchange in the country to obtain permanent recognition in 1956 from the
Government of India under the Securities Contracts (Regulation) Act, 1956. The
Exchange's pivotal and pre-eminent role in the development of the Indian capital market
is widely recognized and its index, SENSEX, is tracked worldwide.
In 1956, the BSE became the first stock exchange to be recognized by the Indian
Government under the Securities Contracts Regulation Act. It was the year 2000 where the
BSE opened its derivatives market, trading Sensex Futures Contracts. The Bombay Stock
Exchange adapted to an electronic trading system in 1995. The screen-based trading
platform that is known as BSE On-line Trading (BOLT) currently has a capacity of 80 lakhorders per day.
The BSE has attracted millions of people to stock trading on an annual basis. This is why
the stock broking industry has seen tremendous growth over the years. There are almost six
thousand BSE companies comprising of blue chip conglomerates, small companies, etc.
The companies listed are among the top companies and here investors are seen in large
numbers that invest in the BSE companies. The BSE was badly hit during the recession
period where it saw fall in shares but it has soon picked up momentum. The stock market
has seen rise in its volumes due to the increasing popularity of the BSE.

B. Growth and present status of the Industry
SEBI:
The Securities and Exchange Board of India was established on April 12, 1992 inaccordance with the provisions of the Securities and Exchange Board of India Act, 1992. The
Preamble of the Securities and Exchange Board of India describes the basic functions of
the Securities and Exchange Board of India.
Under the SEBI Act, 1992, the SEBI has been empowered to conduct inspection of stock
exchanges. The SEBI has been inspecting the stock exchanges once every year since 1995-
96. During these inspections, a review of the market operations, organizational structure
and administrative control of the exchange is made to ascertain.
During the year 1997-98, inspection of stock exchanges was carried out with a special
focus on the measures taken by the stock exchanges for investor's protection. Stock
exchanges were, through inspection reports, advised to effectively follow-up and redress
the investors' complaints against members/listed companies. The stock exchanges were
also advised to expedite the disposal of arbitration cases within four months from the date
of filing. During the earlier years' inspections, common deficiencies observed in the
functioning of the exchanges were delays in post trading settlement, frequent clubbing of
settlements, delay in conducting auctions, inadequate monitoring of payment of margins by
brokers, non-adherence to Capital Adequacy Norms etc. It was observed during the
inspections conducted in 1997-98 that there has been considerable improvement in most of
the areas, especially in trading, settlement, collection of margins etc.
It drafts regulations in its legislative capacity, it conducts investigation and enforcement
action in its executive function and it passes rulings and orders in its judicial capacity.
SEBI has enjoyed success as a regulator by pushing systemic reforms successively. SEBI
has been active in setting up the regulations as required under law. SEBI has also been
effective in taking quick steps in light of the global meltdown. More recently, it liberalised
the takeover code to facilitate investments.

Act in August 1996 made the establishment of NSDL, the first depository in India. NSDL
handles most of the securities held and settled in dematerialized form in the Indian capital
market. Using innovative and flexible technology systems, NSDL works to support the
investors in the capital market of the country. NSDL aims at ensuring the safety by
developing settlement solutions that increase efficiency and reduce costs. Transfer of
ownership of securities is done through simple account transfers. Cost of transacting in a
depository is considerably lower as compared to transacting in certificates.
The Depositories Act has provided dematerialization route to book entry based transfer of
securities and settlement of securities trade. NSDL has framed its Bye Laws andBusiness
Rules. The Bye Laws are approved by SEBI. The Business Rules outline the operational
procedures to be followed by NSDL. Also, there are certain benefits of NSDL. In the
depository environment, once holdings of an investor are dematerialized, the question of
bad delivery does not arise.Dealing in physical securities has associated security risks oftheft of stocks, loss of certificates during movements through and from the registrars. This
problem does not arise in the depository environment. There is no stamp duty or transfer of
any kind of securities in the depository.
There are various checks and measures in the depository system to ensure safety of the
investor holdings. A DP can be operational only after registration by SEBI, which is based
on the recommendation from NSDL. DPs are allowed to affect any debit and credit to an
account only on the basis of valid instruction from the client. Every day, there is a system
driven mandatory reconciliation between DP and NSDL. Also, all transactions are recorded
at NSDL Central System and in the databases maintained. In addition, every month NSDL
forwards statement of account to a random sample of investors as a counter check.

and CDSL run side by side and have opened more than million demat accounts. CDSL's
demat services are extended through its agents called Depository Participants.The DP is
the link between the investor and CDSL. CDSL's system is based on centralised database
architecture with on-line connectivity with DPs.

Dematerialization and trading in the demat mode is the safer and faster alternative to the
physical existence of securities. Demat as a parallel solution offers freedom from delays,
thefts, forgeries, settlement risks and paper work. This system works through depository
participants (DPs) who offer demat services and the securities are held in the electronic
form for the investor directly by the Depository. Dematerialization is the process of
converting the physical form of shares into electronic form. Prior to dematerialization the
Indian stock markets have faced several problems like delay in the transfer of certificates,
forgery of certificates etc. Dematerialization helps to overcome these problems as well as
reduces the transaction time as compared to the physical segment. According to the
Depositories Act, 1996, an investor has the option to hold shares either in physical or
electronic form .The process of converting the physical form of shares into electronic form
is called dematerialization or in short demats. The converted electronic data is stored with
the depository from where they can be traded. It is similar to a bank where an investor
opens an account with any of the depository participants. Depository participant is a
representative of the depository .The DP maintains the investors securities account
balances and intimates him about the status of holdings.
Sharekhan Depository Services offers dematerialization services to individual and
corporate investors. Sharekhan is a registered Depository Participant (DP) with National
Securities Depository Ltd. (NSDL). It has a team of professionals and the latest
technological expertise dedicated exclusively to our demat department, apart from a
national network of franchisee, making our services quick, convenient and efficient. At

7/31/2019 Harsh Final
25/79
1. However, a broking house like Sharekhan which caters to the mass segment is in no
position to provide relationship managers for individual customers.
2. Though the company has an efficient product line but large part of investment
interested population does not know the company.
3. Most of the banks due to good branding have the faith of the customers of their
banking database. So they enjoy the liberty of huge database and customers find it
more reliable to trade their rather than with an unknown broker like Sharekhan.
4. Localized presence due to in sufficient investments for country wide expansion.
This makes other top and large broking firms to take edge over the companys
potential customers.

CHAPTER THREE
DISCUSSION ON TRAINING
- 27 -
-
7/31/2019 Harsh Final
28/79
3.1 STUDENTS WORK PROFILE:
Having the right person, in the right place, at the right time, is crucial to organizational
performance. Recruitment is a critical activity, not just for the HR team but also for line
managers who are increasingly involved in the selection process.
This fact sheet gives outline guidance, it doesnt replace legal advice. All those involved in
recruitment activities should be aware of all relevant legislation and the latest legal position
on issues such as discrimination, asylum and immigration and data protection among
others.
Recruitment is the process of discovering potential applicants for actual or anticipated
organizational vacancies. It is a linking activity bringing together those with jobs and
seeking jobs.
It is a process to discover sources of manpower to meet the requirements of staffing
schedule and to employ effective measures for attracting that manpower in adequate
numbers to facilitate effective selection of efficient working force. This efficient working
force must be strong enough to produce effective results for the company. The workforce
needs to be well satisfied in order to produce quality in working hours. If the workforce
gets involved in disputes, then the management needs to solve their queries fast so that they
can satisfy the workforce. It is the workforce that is the backbone of the organization.
Therefore, efficient workforce requires the need for selecting best talents to work for the
company.
3.2 Key Learning:
- 28 -
-
7/31/2019 Harsh Final
29/79
Recruitment is a positive function in which publicity is given to the jobs available in the
organization and interested candidates are encouraged to submit applications for the
purpose of selection. Recruitment represents the first contact that a company makes with
potential employees. It is through recruitment that many individuals will come to know a
company, and eventually decided whether they wish to work for it. A well-planned and
well-managed recruiting effort will result in high quality applicants, whereas, a haphazard
and piecemeal efforts will result in mediocre ones.
The importance of selection recruitment and selection of staff is now accepted in the
business world. Selection is important as it has its impact on work performance and
employee cost. As result scientific methods of recruitment and selection are extensively for
the selection of managers and the supervisory staff. The assistance of experts such as
industrial psychologist and management consultants are also taken for the purpose of
scientific selection. As a result, the objective of right man for the right job is achieved in
many organizations. Moreover, right job is the basic principle in manpower procurement
Need for recruitment:
1) Vacancies due to promotions, transfer, retirement, termination, permanent
disability, death and labour turnover.
2) Creation of new vacancies due to the growth, expansion and diversification of
business activities of an enterprise. In addition, new vacancies are possible due to
job specification.
- 29 -

7/31/2019 Harsh Final
30/79
The recruitment process has two major goals:-
Generate a large pool of applicants
Providing enough information for individual to self select out of the process
Purpose and importance of Recruitment:
1. Determine the present and future requirements of the organization on conjunction with
its personnel-planning and job analysis activities.
2. Increase the pool of job candidates at minimum cost.3.Help increase the success rate of
the selection process by reducing the number of visibly under qualified or overqualified job
applicants.
3. Help increase the success rate of the selection process by reducing the number of visibly
under qualified or overqualified job applicants.
4. Help reduce the probability that job applicants, once recruited and selected, will leave
the organization only after a short period of time.
5. Meet the organizations legal and social obligations regarding the composition of its
work force.
6. Begin identifying and preparing potential job applicants who will be appropriate
candidates.

THE RECRUITMENT PROCESS:
1. JOB ANALYSIS:
Before recruiting for a new or existing position, it is important to invest time in gatheringinformation about the nature of the job. This means thinking not only about the content
making up the job, but also the jobs purpose, the outputs required by the job holder and
how it fits into the organisations structure. It is also important to consider the skills and
personal attributes needed to perform the role effectively.
Ways to gather this information include observation, questionnaires, interviews or work
diaries. This analysis can form the basis of a job description and person specification.
Job Description:
Carrying out a job analysis will form the basis of a written job description. This benefits
the recruitment process by:
Providing information to potential applicants and recruitment agencies who may be
recruiting on behalf
Acting as an aid in selection; when designing assessment activities and making
decisions between candidates.
The analysis can also be used to communicate expectations about standards to employees
and managers to help ensure effective performance in the job.
Person specification/job profile:
A person specification or job profile states the necessary and desirable criteria for selection.
Increasingly such specifications are based on a set of competencies identified as necessaryfor the performance of the job.
In general, specifications should include details of:
- 31 -
-
7/31/2019 Harsh Final
32/79
Skills, aptitude, knowledge and experience
Qualifications (which should be only those necessary to do the job - unless
candidates are recruited on the basis of future potential eg graduates)
Personal qualities relevant to the job, such as ability to work as part of a team.
2. ATTRACTING APPLICATIONS:
Internal methods:
It is important not to forget the internal talent pool when recruiting. Providing opportunities
for development and career progression is an important factor for employee retention and
motivation. The CIPD survey Recruitment, retention and turnover 2004 found that 87% of
UK organizations had a policy of advertising all vacancies internally using tools such as
notice boards and their intranet. Some organizations operate an employee referral scheme.
These schemes usually offer an incentive to existing employees to assist in the recruitment
of family or friends.
External Methods:
There are many options available for generating interest from individuals outside the
organisation. These include placing advertisements in trade press, newspapers and on the
web. However, it is found that despite the increasing popularity of the internet-based
methods in recent years, local newspapers currently remain the most frequently used means
of attracting candidates.
Advertisements should be clear and indicate the:
- 32 -
-
7/31/2019 Harsh Final
33/79
Outline requirements of the job
Necessary and the desirable criteria for job applicants (to limit the number of
inappropriate applications received)
Nature of the organizations activities
Job location
Reward package
Job tenure (contract length)
3. MANAGING THE APPLICATION PROCESS:
Applications can be made by form or by curriculum vitae (CV). Application forms allow
for information to be presented in a consistent format, and therefore easier to assess
objectively the candidates suitability when short listing applicants.
Application forms should:
Be realistic and appropriate to the level of the job
Use clear language
Be piloted for readability and ease of completion
Not request detailed personal information unless relevant to the job
State the procedure for taking up references, how these will be used and at what
stage in the recruitment process they will be taken
Be accompanied by details of the job and clear information about the application
and selection procedure.
Any information collected for equal opportunity monitoring should be used only for this
purpose and be kept separate from information on which selection decisions will be based
- 33 -
-
7/31/2019 Harsh Final
34/79
(for example using a separate piece of paper or detachable slip from the main application
form).
Under the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 it may be necessary to offer application
forms, if used, in different formats. These formats should be used carefully and not
disappoint the management. Formats should go in accordance with the usual global
standards accepted worldwide. The use of e-applications (Internet, intranet and email) has
moved into mainstream recruitment practices; again see fact sheet on Recruitment.
4. DEALING WITH APPLICATIONS:
All solicited applications (responses to advertisements) should be acknowledged and where
possible all unsolicited applications. Prompt acknowledgment is good practice as itpresents a positive image of the organisation. Increasingly candidates are being treated as
customers, and in a tight labour market the recruitment process works both ways. All
applications should be treated confidentially and circulated only to those individuals
involved in the recruitment process.
Selecting the candidates:
Selection decisions should be made after using a range of tools appropriate to the time and
resources available. The most common techniques are described below. Care should be
taken to use techniques which are relevant to the job and the business objectives of the
organisation. All tools used should be validated and constantly reviewed to ensure their
fairness and reliability.
Short listing:
The first stage in the selection process is the creation of a list from the pool of applications
received of those to be invited for interview or other assessment activity. The process
should be informed by the person specification created earlier - if time has not been spent
planning an accurate person specification this process can be overwhelming if a high
volume of applications is received.
The expansion of the use of Internet raises the opportunity for online screening. Care
should be taken in this area, see recruitment on the internet fact sheet for further details.
- 34 -
-
7/31/2019 Harsh Final
35/79
Many companies also now make use of telephone hotlines to provide an initial screening
service by asking candidates a series of questions reflecting essential requirements for the
job.
5. SELECTION INTERVIEWS
Although they remain the most commonly used selection technique according to CIPD
surveys, interviews have very poor predictive ability of suitability if conducted by
untrained individuals in an unstructured way.
To have any value they should:
Always be conducted or supervised by trained individuals
Be structured to follow a previously agreed set of questions mirroring the person
specification or job profile
Allow candidates the opportunity to ask questions
Candidates should be given as much information as possible prior to interview, for example
about terms and conditions, to allow them to prepare and to minimize the risk of job offers
being rejected. Organizations should be prepared to discuss reimbursing reasonable travel
costs for attending interviews with the candidates prior to any interview. According to the
CIPD survey1, 43% of organizations in the UK use assessment centres. They are most
frequently used when recruiting for managers, professionals and graduate trainees.
Assessment centres test candidates on a range of work-related activities as individuals and
in groups. Studies have shown that they have higher validity than interviews when
predicting future job performance.
Psychological or occupational testing is also a widely used selection technique. Offers of
employment should be made in writing. It is important that employers are aware of the
legal requirements of what information should be given in the written statement of
particulars of employment.
- 35 -

7/31/2019 Harsh Final
36/79
6. JOINING THE ORGANIZATION:
Well-planned induction enables new employees to become fully operational quickly and
should be integrated with the recruitment process. A recruitment policy should state clearly
how references will be used, when in the recruitment process they will be taken up and
what kind of references will be necessary (from former employers). These rules should be
applied consistently. Recruiters should always obtain references to check factual
information such as qualifications. But they should not ask former employers to supply a
subjective opinion as to an applicant's likely future performance. Such data is unreliable
and can be misleading. It is reasonable to require completion of a health questionnaire
where good health is relevant to the job.
Any particular physical or medical requirement should be made clear in the job
advertisement or other recruitment literature. Organizations should pay for any medical
examinations required. When it is necessary for medical records to be obtained, the
requirements of the Access to Medical Reports Act 1988 must be observed. Care should be
taken with regard to the Disability Discrimination Act before making selection decisions
relating to employees mental or physical health. The process should be documented
accurately and access limited to recruitment staff. Information should be kept for sufficient
time to allow for any complaints to be handled.
Monitoring:
Monitoring is not mandatory but it is good practice to ensure that all groups have an equal
chance at all stages of the recruitment process. Data collected for monitoring should not be
used for any other purposes. Unsuccessful candidates should be notified promptly in
writing, giving feedback if possible. As a minimum, feedback on any psychometric test
results should be given.
External recruitment services:
Many organizations make use of external providers to assist in recruitment. A range of
services are available including attracting candidates, managing candidate responses (for
- 36 -
-
7/31/2019 Harsh Final
37/79
example by via a call centre response service) screening and short listing, or running
assessment centres on behalf.
In order to ensure an effective working relationship, remember the following:
Examine the market carefully before selecting an agency or consultancy. Different
services are provided by different agencies. It is important that an organisation
selects one which reflects its aims and objectives and has experience of its labour
market.
Be clear about what is required from an agency. Provide a brief in writing; ensure it
is fully understood and that all information given is current and accurate.
Provide an accurate and up-to-date job and/or person specification.
Agree, in writing, the responsibilities of the agency and the organisation (forexample, which will be responsible for checking qualifications or handling
references).
Agree the selection tools to be used and the criteria against which applicants will be
selected from the initial approaches, to the short-list stage. Ensure these are
consistent with the organizations recruitment policy.
Ensure equal opportunities standards are adhered to consistently and are in line with
the requirements for in-house recruitment.
General Viewpoint:
Effective recruitment is central and crucial to the successful day-to-day functioning of any
organisation. Successful recruitment depends upon finding people with the necessary skills,
expertise and qualifications to deliver organizational objectives and the ability to make a
positive contribution to the values and aims of the organization Recruitment is not only
carried out to fulfill current needs. Recruiters should always be aware of and refer to future
plans that have implications for organizational resourcing.
Recruiters also need to be fully aware of equal opportunities legislation and understand
how discrimination can occur both directly and indirectly in the recruitment process. For
example, untrained interviewers can make subjective judgments based on non job-related
criteria and some forms of advertising may discourage or fail to reach potential applicants
- 37 -
-
7/31/2019 Harsh Final
38/79
from certain groups. A diverse workforce who reflects customer groups within the local
community is to be encouraged. Organizations should monitor their recruitment processes
continuously to ensure their validity, and that they are non-discriminatory.
3.3 MANPOWER PLANNING:
Manpower Planning which is also called as Human Resource Planning consists of putting
right number of people, right kind of people at the right place, right time, doing the right
things for which they are suited for the achievement of goals of the organization. Human
Resource Planning has got an important place in the arena of industrialization. Human
Resource Planning has to be a systems approach and is carried out in a set procedure.
Downsizing of manpower gives the correct picture about the number of people to be
employed to complete given task in the predetermined period. It is used for achieving
fundamental growth in the concern. It can work out the correct price by the resource
building or capacity building. It aims at correct place, correct man on a correct job.
Thus manpower planning is must to make the optimum utilization of the greatest resource
available i.e. manpower for the success of any organisation.
The steps are as follows:
1. Analyzing the current manpower inventory
2. Making future manpower forecasts
3. Developing employment programmes
4. Design training programmes
1. Analyzing the current manpower inventory: Before a manager makes forecast of
future manpower, the current manpower status has to be analysed. For this the following
things have to be noted:
Type of organization
Number of departments
- 38 -
-
7/31/2019 Harsh Final
39/79
Number and quantity of such departments
Employees in these work units
2. Making future manpower forecasts: Once the factors affecting the future
manpower forecasts are known, planning can be done for the future manpower
requirements in several work units.
The Manpower forecasting techniques commonly employed by the organizations
are as follows:
a. Expert Forecasts: This includes informal decisions, formal expert surveys
and Delphi technique.
b. Trend Analysis: Manpower needs can be projected through extrapolation
(projecting past trends), indexation (using base year as basis), and statistical
analysis (central tendency measure).
c. Work Load Analysis: It is dependent upon the nature of work load in a
department, in a branch or in a division.
d. Work Force Analysis: Whenever production and time period has to be
analysed, due allowances have to be made for getting net manpower
requirements.
e. Other methods: Several Mathematical models, with the aid of computers are
used to forecast manpower needs, like budget and planning analysis,
regression and new venture analysis.
3. Developing employment programmes: Once the current inventory is compared
with future forecasts, the employment programmes can be framed and developed
accordingly, which will include recruitment, selection procedures and placement
plans.
- 39 -

7/31/2019 Harsh Final
40/79
4. Design training programmes: These will be based upon extent of diversification,
expansion plans, development programmes, etc. Training programmes depend upon
the extent of improvement in technology and advancement to take place. It is also
done to improve upon the skills, capabilities, knowledge of the workers.
Importance of Manpower Planning:
1. Key to managerial functions: The four managerial functions, i.e., planning,
organizing, directing and controlling are based upon the manpower. Human
resources help in the implementation of all these managerial activities. Therefore,
staffing becomes a key to all managerial functions.
2. Efficient utilization: Efficient management of personnels becomes an important
function in the industrialization world of today. Seting of large scale enterprises
require management of large scale manpower. It can be effectively done through
staffing function.
3. Motivation: Staffing function not only includes putting right men on right job, but
it also comprises of motivational programmes, i.e., incentive plans to be framed for
further participation and employment of employees in a concern. Therefore, all
types of incentive plans becomes an integral part of staffing function.
4. Better human relations: A concern can stabilize itself if human relations develop
and are strong. Human relations become strong trough effective control, clear
communication, effective supervision and leadership in a concern. Staffing function
- 40 -
-
7/31/2019 Harsh Final
41/79
also looks after training and development of the work force which leads to co-
operation and better human relations.
5. Higher productivity: Productivity level increases when resources are utilized in
best possible manner. higher productivity is a result of minimum wastage of time,
money, efforts and energies.This is possible through the staffing and it's related
activities ( Performance appraisal, training and development, remuneration)
Need of Manpower Planning:
Manpower Planning is a two-phased process because manpower planning not only analyses
the current human resources but also makes manpower forecasts and thereby draw
employment programmes. Manpower Planning is advantageous to firm in following
manner:
1. Shortages and surpluses can be identified so that quick action can be taken
wherever required.
2. All the recruitment and selection programmes are based on manpower planning.
3. It also helps to reduce the labour cost as excess staff can be identified and therebyoverstaffing can be avoided.
4. It also helps to identify the available talents in a concern and accordingly training
programmes can be chalked out to develop those talents.
5. It helps in growth and diversification of business. Through manpower planning,
human resources can be readily available and they can be utilized in best manner.
- 41 -

6. It helps the organization to realize the importance of manpower management which
ultimately helps in the stability of a concern.
Advantages of manpower planning:
1. It is useful both for organization and nation.
2. It generates facilities to educate people in the organization.
3. It brings about fast economic developments.
4. It boosts the geographical mobility of labor.
5. It provides smooth working even after expansion of the organization.

future business plans. Based on the outcome of such reviews, the organisation can more
efficiently:
Prepare recruitment schedules and recruitment budgets.
Prepare salary and fringe benefit budget.
Prepare training schedules and budget.
Update position descriptions to account for new responsibilities.

3.5 RECRUITMENT TRENDS IN INDIA:
Like any other industry, the recruitment industry is cyclical. IT follows the cycles of
other industries to a large extent. But the recruitment industry has a significant advantage
because of the products it promotes skilled manpower. For any organization, in any
kind of economy, skilled manpower is absolutely essential. In a booming economy,
companies in India were offering high salaries and attractive incentive packages to attract
the best talent to their payroll. However, as the economic downturn hit countries around the
world, Indian companies suffered too. Lay-offs, salary cuts and deferred payments became
commonplace. A vast pool of skilled, un-employed candidates was created during this
recession. During this period, hiring was extremely limited and companies could cherry-
pick from the cream of the crop.
Now that the economy, at least in India, seems to have stabilized and started clawing back
to what is was in 2008, some striking trends are being observed in the recruitment industry.
These trends have their roots in the recession and its effects on job seekers and recruiters.
Some of the key trends have been discussed below. Many companies that cut back to bare
bones staff during the worst of the recession are now beginning to hire contract workers.
Contract hiring makes sense when the economic situation is still volatile and a company
does not want to commit its financial resources to a full-time permanent hire. Also, contract
employees are usually brought on board with the idea of handling one set project or
providing a select skill set.
- 45 -
-
7/31/2019 Harsh Final
46/79
So the process of hiring a contract employee is usually a little more streamlined as well.
Today, the key focus of talent acquisition teams has changed from hiring generic skilled
resources as strategic buffers to meet future ramp-ups to hiring just-in-time based
on business demand. This ensures that lead times are reduced for new employees and costs
are reduced for the company since they are not maintaining a bench. Just-in-time hiring is
fast becoming the watch word in many companies and is a beneficial trend that is set to
embed itself firmly into the recruitment industry. Becoming a freelancer requires a great
deal of domain experience, commitment, integrity, flexibility and confidence. Though the
going might be tough initially, returns can be very good provided a freelancer is good at the
job and enterprising enough. To become and independent consultant, a person has to have a
command over his field of experience and a relatively good network in the industry.
Freelancing and consulting may form a small percentage of the recruitments in India, but
recent trends show more professionals inclined towards them. Companies after recruiting
thousands of professionals from different colleges, are providing training for the stream
they want them To provide the students who are not really talented who got selected by
luck, could not survive and retention takes place due to the Pressurized situation.
Therefore, companies should not entirely look up on the academic performance of the
student but the practical knowledge of the Student. By doing this, companies can reduce
the training period and retention can be avoided.
Reflecting the bullish employment market, companies in India plan to recruit new
personnel at a hectic pace over the next three months, with the manufacturing industry
expected to offer the strongest hiring prospects, says a survey. Staffing services firm
Manpower's Employment Outlook Survey released today showed that employers in India
have the strongest hiring intentions for the 2011 second quarter. India's net employment
outlook -an indicator of recruitment intentions - rose to 51% on a seasonally adjusted basis
for the three-month period starting April. The same stood at just 43% for the first three
months of this year. "Employers (in India) from manufacturing, finance, insurance, real
estate, public administration and education and wholesale and retail trade report strongest
hiring plans to date," Manpower said. The manufacturing sector leads the way with a hiring
outlook of 56%, followed by finance, insurance and real estate (55%). India is benefiting
- 46 -
-
7/31/2019 Harsh Final
47/79
from the global economic recovery, especially in the US. Overall demand has gone up
resulting in robust hiring trends, Kishore noted. In the wake of the global financial crisis in
2008-09, many firms had resorted to massive layoffs to cut down costs. The findings are
based on a survey of 5,112 employers across the country. According to the report,
employers in the South have the strongest hiring expectations, reflected in a net
employment outlook of 58%. It is followed by North (54%). East (53%) and West (43%).
Meanwhile, Manpower's survey -- which also covered 38 other countries -- revealed that
employers in India, Taiwan, Brazil, China, and Turkey have the strongest second-quarter
hiring expectations. European countries, which have been rattled by the sovereign debt
turmoil, particularly Greece, Spain and Ireland, as well as Italy, recorded "the weakest

INDUCTION:
The purpose an induction policy is to ensure that all employees have the benefit of a
properly structured Induction Programme that will help them to integrate into their role in
the organisation quickly and effectively. Through the induction policy / checklist process,
employees should have all of their necessary initial orientation, safety, training and
information needs addressed. An induction programme is the process used within many
businesses to welcome new employees to the company and prepare them for their new role.
Induction training should, according to TPI-theory, include development of theoretical and
practical skills, but also meet interaction needs that exist among the new employees.
In order to fully benefit the company and employee, the induction programme should
be planned in advance. A timetable should be prepared, detailing the induction activities
for a set period of time (ideally at least a week) for the new employee, including a named
member of staff who will be responsible for each activity. An induction programme is an
important process for bringing staff into an organisation. It provides an introduction to the
working environment and the set-up of the employee within the organisation. The process
will cover the employer and employee rights and the terms and conditions of employment.
As a priority the induction programme must cover any legal and compliance requirements
for working at the company and pay attention to the health and safety of the new employee.
Reasons for Induction Programme:

1) It allows new employees to understand the standards of the employer (in terms of work
expectations).
2) It sets up the employee with the knowledge of what is required of them in certain
situations (such as in respect to harassment).
3) It sets up safety procedures so all people can behave in an appropriate way (in regards to
wearing PPE, or during an evacuation).
4) It may inform the employee of the structure of the company (who does what) and where
they can go if they need help, or have an enquiry.
INDUCTION PROCESS:
1) It is the duty of HRM to ensure that induction is dealt with in an organised and
consistent manner. The induction process starts with the framing of the induction
schedule by HRM, which is sent to all the concerned departments informing them of
the date, and time when the new incumbent shall be visiting the respective
unit/department. Adequate thrust is given to the areas where the employee shall be
dealing frequently during the course of his/her operations within the organisation. The
responsibility for induction is demarcated & all the people whom the new incumbent
needs to know are identified.
2) During the process of induction, the new member is briefed about the following :
1. Company Profile / Company Product

ensure that the programme is a success.
4) Any change in induction schedule is to be informed to the concerned individuals to
avoid any confusion.
5) The immediate supervisor is responsible for :
Arranging for work area for the new employee before he/she commences work.
Detailed discussion on the job responsibilities.

4.3 RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODOLOGY:
Research is a process in which the researcher wishers to find out the end result for a given
problem and thus the solution helps in future course of action.
According to Redman & Mory research is defined as a Systemized effort to gain new
knowledge.
According to Claire Seltiz, a research design is the arrangement of condition and analysis
of data in manner that aims to combine relevance to the research purpose with economy in
procedure.
Research design can be divided into fixed and flexible research designs (Robson, 1993).
Others have referred to this distinction with quantitative research designs and qualitative
research designs. However, fixed designs need not be quantitative, and flexible design
need not be qualitative. In fixed designs the design of the study is fixed before the main
stage of data collection takes place. Fixed designs are normally theory-driven; otherwise
its impossible to know in advance which variables need to be controlled and measured.
Often these variables are quantitative. Flexible designs allow for more freedom during the
data collection. One reason for using a flexible research design can be that the variable of
interest is not quantitatively measurable, such as culture. In other cases, theory might not
be available before one starts the research.
NATURE OF RESEARCH

Research is basically of two types.
1. Descriptive research:The descriptive research design is a scientific method which
involves observing and describing the behaviour of a subject without influencing it
in any way.
2. Explorative research: Explanatory research focuses on why questions. For
example, it is one thing to describe the crime rate in a country, to examine trends
over time or to compare the rates in different countries. It is quite a different thing
to develop explanations about why the crime rate is as high as it is, why some types
of crime are increasing or why the rate is higher in some countries than in others.
Descriptive Research:These studies are concerned with describing the characteristic of a
particular individual or a group.

SECONDARY DATA
PRIMARY DATA:-
Primary data is that kind of data which is collected by the investigator himself for the
purpose of the specific study. The data such collected is original in character. The
advantage of third method of collection is the authenticity. A set of question s was put
together in the form of questionnaire with. Question. The method of sampling was the
random method as it is unbiased.
Basic methods of collecting Primary Data:
1) Questionnaire Method: The questionnaire used by us for the purpose of data
collection were of structured type( Non-disguised as well as Disguised)
2) Contact Method:In order to derive information from the intended organization, it was
elementary for us to search for a link, which could enable us to conduct a research in
that organization. The personal contact of one of the group members in the aforesaid
organization helped us in getting an appointment soon.
SECONDARY DATA:-
When an investigator uses the data that has been already collected by others is called secondary
data. The secondary data could be collected from Journals, Reports and Various Publications. The
advantages of secondary data can be economical, both in the term of money and time spent. The
researcher of the reporter also did the same and collected secondary from various Internet sites
like google.com, altavista.com and many more. The researchers of the reporter also visited
various libraries for collection of the introduction part.
Basic methods of collecting secondary data:
1) Magazines
2) Books
3) Brochure

Benefits of Secondary Data:
1. It is economical as it saves efforts and expenses for the researcher. Therefore, this is
one advantage that secondary data has for the researcher over primary data.
2. It helps to make primary data collection more specific since with the help of
secondary data, we are able to make out what are the gaps and deficiencies and
what additional information needs to be collected.
3. It helps to improve the understanding of the problem better when there are extra
material is available. This extra material can be availed from the government
libraries where the researcher needs to have the library card.
4. It provides a basis for comparison for the data that is collected by the researcher.
This is because various data is collected from past years that can be compared
thoroughly. The data available can be checked to verify its accuracy and data
compared will give performance matter for the researcher.
5. The secondary data provides a larger database than the primary data to the
researcher. In this way, the researcher is assured that the data obtained is logical
and accurate. This is because the data is made available from the Internet, books,
etc.

LIMITATION TO THE RESEARCH:-
1. The main source of data is primary data that is not that useful for the researcher.
2. 100 samples do not reflect the opinion of employees as a whole because it could be
proved bias. In this way, the company can be protected.
3. Time limit was another limitation and there may be possibility of committing a
general error due to rush in the making of the project. Time was less due to other
internal events in the college such as college fest, college functions, etc.
4. Convincing the employees was difficult as they were too
