RECRUITMENT METHODS.

Current Recruitment Method

In Current scenario, the Company recruits the personal suitable for the position through

Job Advertisement published in Print Media as well the Company website. The Job incumbents

with similar kind of experience in other Oil & Gas or Petrochemical Sector are given preference

for the position as the job seekers with aforementioned experience require less time to get

familiarized with working environment as well as policies and procedures. The position is

recruited on Equal Opportunity Employment basis.

Recommended Opinion

In our opinion, the Current Recruitment Procedure, the complete recruitment process is

conducted by the Companys own HR Staff. This cause an extra burden to their normal routine

working scenario and also affect the other acute issues to be coped up by the Companys HR

staff. Therefore, to avoid such a chaotic situation, Executive Search Firms may be contracted to

recruit the right and resourceful person for the position as these firms have professional

expertise in recruitment and selection.

Along with the above recommendation, it is also observed that only external

recruitments are carried out to fulfill the position. It is a lengthy and costly process. Therefore,

the Company should also provide opportunity to internal staff to be appointed at the position.

As this will result in high morale and motivation level of the Companys employees. The internal

recruitment would also be time efficient and also would help to reduce the cost of recruitment

and training.
