Human Resource Management and Human Resource Development Definition: HRM is the process of managing people in organizations in a structured and thorough manner. This covers the fields of staffing (hiring people), retention of people, pay and perks setting and management, performance management, change management and taking care of exits from the company to round off the activities. This is the traditional definition of HRM which leads some experts to define it as a modern version of the Personnel Management function that was used earlier. We have chosen the term “art and science” as HRM is both the art of managing people by recourse to creative and innovative approaches; it is a science as well because of the precision and rigorous application of theory that is required. Human Resource Development (HRD) means to develop available manpower through suitable methods such as training, promotions, transfers and opportunities for career development. HRD programs create a team of well-trained, efficient and capable managers and subordinates. Such team constitutes an important asset of an enterprise. One organization is different from another mainly because of the people (employees) working there in. According to Peter F. Drucker, "The prosperity, if not the survival of any business depends on the performance of its managers of tomorrow." The human resource should be nurtured and used for the benefit of the organization.

17 | P a g e

Advantages / Importance of HR:  Meeting manpower needs: Every Organization needs adequate and properly qualified staff for the conduct of regular business activities. Imaginative HRP is needed in order to meet the growing and changing human resource needs of an organization.  Replacement of manpower: The existing manpower in an Organization is affected due to various reasons such as retirement and removal of employees and labour turnover. HRP is needed to estimate the shortfall in the manpower requirement and also for making suitable arrangements for the recruitment and appointment of new staff.  Meeting growing manpower needs: The expansion or modernization programme may be undertaken by the enterprise. Manpower planning is needed in order to forecast and meet additional manpower requirement due to expansion and growth needs through recruitment and suitable training programs.  Meeting challenges of technological environment: HRP is helpful in effective use of technological progress. To meet the challenge of new technology existing employees need to be retrained and new employees may be recruited.  Coping with change: HRP enables an enterprise to cope with changes in competitive forces, markets, products, and technology and government regulations. Such changes generate changes in job content, skill, number and type of personals.  Increasing investment in HR: An employee who picks up skills and abilities becomes a valuable resource because an organization makes investments in its manpower either through direct training or job assignments.

18 | P a g e

 Adjusting manpower requirements: A situation may develop in; an organization when there will be surplus staff in one department and shortage of staff in some other department. Transfers and promotions are made for meeting such situations.  Recruitment and selection of employees: HRP suggests the type of manpower required in an organization with necessary details. This facilitates recruitment and selection of suitable personnel for jobs in the Organization. Introduction of appropriate selection tests and procedures is also possible as per the manpower requirements.  Placement of manpower: HRP is needed as it facilitates placement of newly selected persons in different departments as per the qualifications and also as per the need of different departments. Surplus or shortage of manpower is avoided and this ensures optimum utilization of available manpower.  Training of manpower: HRP is helpful in selection and training activities. It ensures that adequate numbers of persons are trained to fill up the future vacancies in the Organization.

HR Recruitment: The Challenge According to Edwin Flippo, "Recruitment is the process of searching for prospective employees and stimulating them to apply for jobs in the Organization." Recruitment is a continuous process whereby the firm attempts to develop a pool of qualified applicants for the future human resources needs even though specific vacancies do not exist. Usually, the recruitment process starts when a manger initiates an employee requisition for a specific vacancy or an anticipated vacancy. It is the process to discover sources of manpower to meet the requirement of staffing schedule and to employ effective measures for attracting that manpower in adequate numbers to facilitate effective selection of an efficient working force. Recruitment of candidates is the function preceding the selection, which helps create a pool of prospective employees for the organization so that the management can select the right candidate for the right job from this pool. The main objective of the recruitment process is to expedite the selection process. Recruitment is almost central to any management process and failure in recruitment can create difficulties for any company including an adverse effect on its profitability and inappropriate levels of staffing or skills. Inadequate recruitment can lead to labor shortages, or problems in management decision making and the recruitment process could itself be improved by following management theories. The recruitment process could be improved in sophistication with Rodgers seven point plan, Munro-Frasers five-fold grading system, psychological tests, personal interviews, etc. Recommendations for specific and differentiated selection systems for different professions and

22 | P a g e

specializations have been given. A new national selection system for psychiatrists, anesthetists and dental surgeons has been proposed within the UK health sector

Sources of Recruitment The different sources of recruitment are classified into two categories, viz., Internal: sources of recruitment are from within the organization. External: sources of recruitment are from outside the organization.

23 | P a g e

Internal Sources of Recruitment The internal sources of recruitment are:Promotions: Promotion means to give a higher position, status, salary and responsibility to the employee. So, the vacancy can be filled by promoting a suitable candidate from the same organization. Transfers: Transfer means a change in the place of employment without any change in the position, status, salary and responsibility of the employee. So, the vacancy can be filled by transferring a suitable candidate from the same organization. Internal ments: Here, the vacancy is d within the organization. The existing employees are asked to apply for the vacancy. So, recruitment is done from within the organization. Retired Managers: Sometimes, retired managers may be recalled for a short period. This is done when the organization cannot find a suitable candidate. Recall from Long Leave: The organization may recall a manager who has gone on a long leave. This is done when the organization faces a problem which can only be solved by that particular manager. After he solves the problem, his leave is extended.

24 | P a g e

Merits of Internal Sources The benefits / advantages / merits of using internal sources of recruitment:-

 It is time saving, economical, simple and reliable.  There is no need of induction training because the candidate already knows everything about the organization, the work, the employee, the rules and regulations, etc.  It motivates the employees of work hard in order to get higher jobs in the same organization.  It increases the morale of the employees and it improves the relations in the organization.  It reduce executive turnover.  It develops loyalty and a sense of responsibility. Demerits of Internal Sources The limitations / demerits of using internal sources of recruitment: It prevents new blood from entering the organization. New blood brings innovative ideas, fresh thinking and dynamism into the organization.  It has limited scope because it is not possible to fill up all types of vacancies from within the organization.  The position of the person who is promoted or transferred will be vacant.  There may be bias or partiality in promoting or transferring persons from within the organization. 25 | P a g e

 Those who are not promoted will be unhappy.  The right person may be promoted or transferred only if proper confidential reports of all employees are maintained. This involves a lot of time, money and energy.

External Sources of Recruitment The external sources of recruitment are:Management Consultants: Management consultants are used for selecting higher-level staff. They act as a representative of the employer. They make all the necessary arrangements for recruitment and selection. In return for their services, they take a service charge or commission. Public ments: The Personnel department of a company s the vacancy in newspapers, the internet, etc. This ment gives information about the company, the job and the required qualities of the candidate. It invites applications from suitable candidates. This source is the most popular source of recruitment. This is because it gives a very wide choice. However, it is very costly and time consuming. Campus Recruitment: The organization conducts interviews in the campuses of Management institutes and Engineering Colleges. Final year students, who're soon to get graduate, are interviewed. Suitable candidates are selected by the organization based on their academic record, communication skills, intelligence, etc. This source is used for recruiting qualified, trained but inexperienced candidates.

26 | P a g e

Recommendations: The organization may also recruit candidates based on the recommendations received from existing managers or from sister companies. Deputation Personnel: The organization may also recruit candidates who are sent on deputation by the Government or Financial institutions or by holding or subsidiary companies.

Merits of External Sources The benefits / merits / advantages of using external sources of recruitment: It encourages young blood with new ideas to enter the organization.  It offers wide scope for selection. This is because a large number of suitable candidates will come for the selection process.  There are less chances of bias or partiality.  Here there is no need to maintain confidential records.

Demerits of External Sources The demerits / limitations of using external sources of recruitment: It is very costly. This is because ments, test, medical examination etc., has to be conducted.  It is very time consuming. This is because the selection process is very lengthy.

27 | P a g e

 It may not develop loyalty among the existing managers.  The existing managers may leave the organization if outsiders are given higher post.

HR Challenges in Recruitment Recruitment is a function that requires business perspective, expertise, ability to find and match the best potential candidate for the organization, diplomacy, marketing skills (as to sell the position to the candidate) and wisdom to align the recruitment processes for the benefit of the organization. The HR professionals – handling the recruitment function of the organization- are constantly facing new challenges. The biggest challenge for such professionals is to source or recruit the best people or potential candidate for the organization. In the last few years, the job market has undergone some fundamental changes in of technologies, sources of recruitment, competition in the market etc. In an already saturated job market, where the practices like poaching and raiding are gaining momentum, HR professionals are constantly facing new challenges in one of their most important function- recruitment. They have to face and conquer various challenges to find the best candidates for their organizations. 41 | P a g e

The major challenges faced by the HR in recruitment are:  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.

How does recruiters/consultant get paid? A recruitment consultant primarily acts from a position of self interest. Their job is to generate revenue by making sales. Sales mean selling their service, their ability to find the right candidate, to prospective employers. In effect they are selling you. This means they will be eager to champion you, their product, to the employer, likewise they will be keen to ensure that you will accept the position if offered. Exactly how a recruitment consultant is paid depends on whether it is a permanent or contract position. Generally for a permanent placement the company receives a proportion of your salary, or a set fee agreed with the employer. The more you earn the more they stand to make. Knowing this should ease any concerns you have; in this you are both on the same side. For a contract the consultant will receive a margin of your rate.
