The guidelines provide a guiding principle upon which employers such as the federal, state, and local governments as well as private organizations base their employment procedures. Under these guidelines, the employers are required to come up with employment tests and test processes that ensure the "appropriate" proportion of minority and protected races or individuals are hired and/or promoted without bias or discrimination. This whole process is generally referred to as "the reduction of adverse impact."
The role of a Human Resource department is ever changing in today’s volatile business environment. Over the years HR have become strong strategic partners within an organization by providing functions such as recruitment,
My current position requires a daily assigned tasks and answering incoming calls from HR personnel. The incoming calls require first priority with scheduling candidates for interviews that must be completed. I prioritize completion of the calls based upon their hire dates. The assigned task of background checks is completed based upon the candidates hire dates.
According to Wright et al (2011) recruitment and selection are part of the human resource practices common within organizations in an effort to develop human capital, which is necessary for better production. Numerous scholars have discussed the issue in different contexts. Pramila (2010) discussed the issue of recruitment and selection in an Indian- based company. The article presents effective recruitment practices, which are valuable for organizations. Among the identified practices include internal recruitment, interviews, personality tests, employer references, succession planning, and newspaper recruitment. According to Najafi (2011) the most important aim is to achieve an improvement in their recruitment and selection. With information provided in this article, the researcher is able to advance a thorough understanding of the different issues on improving recruitment and selection processes within organizations.
I’m going to discuss technology and the role it plays amongst recruiting and selection procedures. Technology has changed the process of HR recruitment and selection of applicants significantly and will continue to do so. Chapter 7 and 8 does not cover technology; however, I would argue that technology is a game changer when it comes to recruitment and selection. The reason I’m discussing technology is because I’m assisting with recruitment and the biggest challenge is our ability to expand our recruitment pool, since our technology resources are currently limited. Large organizations
The key tasks of Job design, through analysis, description and specification, and organization design are instrumental in determining what tasks are to be performed and how they will be managed. Once the “what” is determined, it is time to determine the “who” through human resource management. One of the important functions of Human Resource Management is Recruitment and Selection of the
The final selection would be improved on Human Resource Management; technology in the workplace can change the way human resource conduct business. It improves on the cognitive operation of screening, recruiting and employing new employees of the Human Resources Department. The human resource managers are using the internet to advertise job openings. Targeted candidates will be in a position to apply for these positions online by submitting their resumes to the human resource site. This process saves time and it makes the human resource department work more efficient. Technology is also being used to track performance and productivity of each employee. Once employees are mindful that they are being monitored, their productivity will increase.

According to Hussain, Wallace and Cornelius (2006), “recruitment and selection is the process of finding, attracting and hiring or choosing the best-qualified individual from the available applicants to the right job”. The recruitment can be either internal or external, i.e., to either fill a job vacancy from within the existing employees in the company or to hire someone from outside the company. As Microsoft aims at reorganizing the sales team, certain positions are being considered for elimination. Therefore, the HR department of Microsoft would perform job analysis and evaluation in order to see what skills are required for that particular job and then recruit and select the employees. This could also be done by repositioning the existing employees after evaluating their skills and efficiency. Furthermore, the HRM of Microsoft would help the employees to adapt to the changes made to their positions or face elimination in order to “align the workforce with that of the company and to be an excellent contributor to the company” (Edward L. Gubman,
The newly important role of HR is immediately apparent in light of the increased importance of recruitment at organizations today. Merely because the economy has made this a 'buyer's market' at many organizations does not mean that organizations can ignore the considerable effort it takes to find the top candidates in their respective fields. Because of scarce resources and the effort that must be expended upon training new employees, it is essential that companies find the right people to do the job. Furthermore, at knowledge-based
The recruitment and selection process refers to where organisations use various methods in order to generate a pool of candidates that are suited to the job at hand and align with the organisations goals. With technology being used and relied on by many in the business world, it is important that organisations stay relevant by implementing both web-based applications methods and scientific tests to attract the best possible people for the job. These both have their benefits and negatives when used in the recruitment and selection process, but with some modifications, they would further aid organisations to attract the best possible employees to fit into the job.
Human resource recruitment is the practice or activity carried out by the organization with the primary purpose of identifying and attracting potential employees. Selection is the process by which companies decide who will or will not be allowed into organizations. Thus recruitment is the process of getting a pool of candidates for the organization who can meet the requirements of a specific job. After that selecting a person from those candidates is one of the toughest jobs for an organization. In today's competitive business world it is very difficult to survive without potential manpower. Successful recruitment and selection can be expensive and time-consuming. But unsuccessful recruitment and selection can be a cause of the death of a business.
