SELECTION:
According to Dale Yoder Selection is the process in which candidates for employment are divided into two classes those who are to be offered employment and those who are not. Selection means a process by which qualified personnel may be chosen from the applicants offering their services to the organization for employment.
Selection is the process of picking individuals with requisite qualifications and competence to fill job in the organization. A formal definition of selection is that it is the process of differentiating between applicants in order to identify those with a greater likelihood of success in a job. Selection is the process of examining the applicants with regard to their suitability for the given job or jobs, and choosing the best from the suitable candidates and rejecting the others. Thus, selection is negative in its application in as much as it seeks to eliminate as many unqualified applicants possible in order to identify the right candidate.

According to Flippo Human Resource Management is the planning, organizing, directing, and controlling of the procurement, development, compensation, integration, maintenance, and separation of human resources to the end that individual, organizational and social objectives are accomplished. Human Resource Management is a process of bringing people and organizations together so that the goals of each are met. It is that part of the management process which is concerned with the management of human resources is an organization.
According to Arthur Lewis There are great differences in development between countries which seem to have roughly equal resources, so it is necessary to enquire into the difference in human behaviors Human resource management is the management of employees skill, knowledge abilities, talent, aptitude, creativity, ability etc. different terms are used for denoting Human Resource Management.
They are labor management, labor administration, labor management relationship, employee employer relationship, industrial relationship, human capital management, human assent management etc. Though these terms can be used differently widely, the basic nature of distinction lies in the scope or coverage and evolutionary stage. In simple sence, human resource management means employing people, developing their resources, utilizing, maintaining and compensating their services in tune with the job and organizational requirements.

1. Attract highly qualified and competent people. 2. Ensure thats the selected candidates stays longer with company. 3. Make sure that there is match between cost and benefit. 4. Helps the organization to create more culturally diverse workforce.
Whereas, the poor quality of selection means extra cost on training and supervision. Furthermore, when recruitment fails to meet organizational needs for talent, a typically response is to raise entry level pay scales. This can distort traditional wages and salary relationship in organization, resulting in unavoidable consequences. Thus the effectiveness of the recruitment process can play a major role in determining the resources that must be expended on other HR activates and their ultimate success.
Scope of HRM is indeed vast. All major activities in the working life of a worker from the time of his/her entry in an organization until he/she leaves come under the purview of HRM.
Specifically the activities included are: Procurement Training and Development Job Analysis and Job Description Remuneration Personnel Records Welfare and Industrial Relations

RECRUITMENT:-
Recruitment is hiring of employees from outside. Recruitment has been regarded as the most important function of the HR department , because unless the right type of people are hired, even the best plans, organization chart and control system would not do much good. Recruitment is the discovering of potential applicant for actual or anticipated organizational vacancies. Accordingly the purpose of recruitment is to locate sources of manpower to meet the job requirements and job specification. It is defined as a process to discover the sources of manpower to meet the requirements of staffing schedule and to apply effective measures for attracting the manpower to adequate number to facilitate effective selection of an effective workforce Yoder points out that recruitment is a process to discover the sources of manpower to meet the requirement of the staffing schedule and to employee effective measures to attracting that manpower in adequate number to facilitate effective selection of an effective workforce.
Edwin B Flippo defines recruitment as the process of searching for prospective employees and stimulating them to apply for the jobs in the organization.
It is the process of finding and attracting capable applicants for employment. The process begins when new recruits are sought and ends when their application are submitted. The result is a pool of applicants from which new employees are selected.
29
METHODS OF RECRUITMENT: Dunn and Stephens summaries the possible recruiting methods into three categories, namely Direct method Indirect method Third party method
DIRECT METHOD:
The direct method includes sending of the recruiters to different educational and professional institutions, employees contact with public and mannered exhibits. One of the widely used methods is sending the recruiters to different colleges and technical schools. This is mainly done with the cooperation of the placement office of the college. Sometimes, firms directly solicit information from the concerned professors about student with outstanding records. Other direct methods include sending recruiters to conventions and seminars, setting up exhibits at fairs, and using mobile offices to go the desired centers.
INDIRECT METHOD: Indirect method involves mainly advertising in newspapers, on the radios, in trade and professional journals, technical magazines and brochures. Advertisements in newspapers and or trade journals and magazines are the most frequently used methods. Senior post is largely filled with such methods. Advertising is a very useful for recruiting blue color and hourly worker, as well as scientific, professional, and technical employees. Local newspaper can be good sources of blue collar workers, clerical employees, and lower level administrative employees. The main point is that the higher the position in the organization the more dispersed advertisement is likely to be. The search for the top executive might include advertisement in a national periodical, whereas the advertisement of the blue color jobs usually confine to the daily newspaper. According to the Advertisement tactic and strategy in personnel Recruitment, three main points need to be borne in the mind before an advertisement in inserted. First, to visualize the type of applicants one is trying to recruit. Second, to write out a list of advantages the company offers, or why should the reader join the company. Third, to decide where to run the advertisement , not only in which area, but also in which newspaper having a local, state or a nation- wide circulation.
30
THIRD PARTY METHOD: These include the use of commercial or private employment agencies, state agencies, and placement offices of schools colleges and professional associations recruiting firms, management consulting firms, indoctrination seminars for college professors, and friends and relatives. Private employment agencies are the most widely used sources. They charge a small fee from the applicant. They specialize in specific occupation; general office help, salesmen, technical workers, accountant, computer staff, engineers and executives. State or public employment agencies are also known as the employment or labor exchanges, are the main agencies for the public employment. Employers inform them of their personnel requirement, while job seekers get information for them about the type of job are referred by the employer. Schools and colleges offer opportunities for recruiting their student. They operate placement services where complete biodata and other particular of the student are available. Professional organization or recruiting firms maintain complete information records about employed executive. These firms maintain complete information records about employed executives. These firms are looked upon as the head hunters, raiders, and pirates by organization which loses their personnel through their efforts.
Number of initial enquires received which resulted in completed application forms Number of candidates recruited. Number of candidates retained in the organization after six months. Number of candidates at various stages of the recruitment and selection process, especially those short listed.
31
OBJECTIVE OF RECRUITMENT:
To attract with multi dimensional skills and experience that suite the present and future organization strategies. To induct outsider with new perspective to lead the company. To infuse fresh blood at all levels of organization. To develop an organizational culture that attracts competent people to the company. To search or headhunt people whose skill fit the companys values? To seek out non-conventional development grounds of talent To devise methodology for assessing psychological traits. To search for talent globally not just within the company. To design entry pay that competes on quality but not on quantum. To anticipate and find people for position that doesnt exists yet.
Recruitment represents the first contact that a company makes with potential employees. It is through recruitment that many individuals come to know about the company and eventually decide whether they wish to work for it.
The recruitment process should inform qualified individuals about the job so that applicant can make comparison with their qualification and interest.
32
External factors: These include Supply and demand factors Employment rate Labor market condition Political, legal and government factors Information system
33
FACTORS TO BE UNDERTAKEN WHILE FORMULATING RECRUITMENT POLICIES: The following factors should be undertaken while formulating the policies. Government polices Recruitment sources Recruitment needs Recruitment cost Organizational and personal policies
Recruitment is two way street: it takes a recruiter has a choice whom to recruit, same way the prospective employee also has taken the decision whether or not to apply for the given job vacancy. The individual take the decision usually on three different basic: The objective theory The critical contact theory The subjective factor theory
The objectives theory: Views that the process of organizational choice as being one of weighing and evaluating set of measurable characteristic of employment offers, such pay, benefits , location, opportunity for advancement, the nature of job to performed, and education opportunities. The critical contact theory:
Suggests that the typical candidates is unable to make a meaningful differentiation of organizations offers in terms of objective or subjective factors, because of his limited or very short contact with the organization. Choice can be made only when applicant can readily perceive the factors such as the behavior of the recruiters, the nature of the physical facilities, and such as the efficiency in processing paper work association with the application.
The subjective theory: Emphasizes the congruence. Here the choices are made on highly personal and emotional basis.
34
RECRUITMENT PROCESS: The actual steps involved in recruitment follow a well defined path:
Application shortlist: In this step, we shortlist the resume received from various sources based on the suitability for the requirement.
Preliminary Assessment: The short listed candidates go through a preliminary round of interviews. This interview lays more emphasis on functional competencies. To have more data on the functional skills, the candidates may be given a business case for analysis and presentation (This is done for certain positions only).
Final interview: Here the candidates who successfully clear the first round of interview go through another round of interview with one or more of the functional heads.
Medical Evaluation: Candidates who are selected are asked to undergo a medical test.
35
PROCESS CHART:
Ability Tests
36
The following are the evaluation of the recruitment process: Return rate of application sent out. Number of suitable candidates for selection. Retention and performance of the candidate selection. Cost of recruitment Time lapsed data. Comments on image projected.
PHILOSOPHIES OF RECRUITMENT: Basically there are two Philosophies of recruitment. These are as follows:
Job Compatibility Questionnaire (JCQ): Job compatibility Questionnaire was developed to determine whether an applicants preference for the work match the characteristic of the job. The JCQ is designed to collect information on all aspects of the job which have a bearing in on employee performance .absenteeism, turnover and job satisfaction. The underlying assumption of JCQ is that, greater the compatibility between an applicants preference for the job and characteristic of the job as perceived by the job seeker, the greater the probability of employee effectiveness and longer the tenure.
37
SELECTION:-
Selection is a negative process and involves the elimination of candidates who do not have the required skills and qualification for the job proposed. Also it is a process of differentiating between applicants in order to identify and hire those with greater likelihood of success in job. The objective of selection decision is to choose the individual who can most successfully perform the job from the pool of qualified candidates. It is the system of function and devise adopted in a given company to ascertain whether the candidates specifications are matched with the job specifications and recruitment or not. Selection process or activities typically follow a standard patter, beginning with an initial screening interview and concluding with final employment decision. The traditional selection process includes: preliminary screening interview, completion of application form, employment test, comprehensive interview, background investigation, physical examination and final employment decision to hire. According to Dale Yoder Selection is the process in which candidates for employment are divided into two classes those who are to be offered employment and those who are not. Selection means a process by which qualified personnel may be chosen from the applicants offering their services to the organization for employment.
PURPOSE OF SELECTION: The purpose of selection is to pick up the most suitable candidate who would meet the requirements of the job and the organization best, to find out which job applicant will be successful, if hired. To meet this goal, the company obtains and assesses information about the applicants in terms of age, qualifications, skills, experience, etc. The needs of the jobs are matched with the profile of candidates. The most suitable person is then picked up after eliminating the unsuitable applicants through successive stages of selection process.
38
Until recently the basic hiring process was performed in a rather unplanned manner in many organizations. In some companies, each department screened and hired its own employees. Many mangers insisted on screening their own employees as they thought no one else could do that as efficiently as they themselves. But now selection is centralized and handled by the Human Resource Department. This type of arrangement is also preferred due to some of these advantages: It is easier for the application because they can send their applications to a single centralized department. It facilitates contact with applicants because issues pertaining to employment can be cleared through one central location. It helps operating managers to concentrate on their operating responsibilities. This is especially helpful during the chief hiring period. It can provide for better selection because hiring is done by specialist trained in staffing techniques. The applicant is better assured of consideration for a greater variety of jobs. Hiring cost is cut because duplication of efforts is reduced. With increased governmental regulation on selection process, it is important that people who know about these rules handle a major part of the selection process.
Ideally, a selection process involves mutually decision making. The organization decides whether or not to make a job offer and how attractive the job offer should be.
39
The main objective of selection process is to hire people having competence and commitment towards the given job profile. But due to some reason the main purpose of effectively selecting candidates is defeated. These reasons are:
Perception or the Halo effect: Many a times the interviewer selects a candidate according to the perception he has or he made up while talking or looking at the individual. This way he does not see through the caliber or the efficiency of the individual and many times it leads to the selection of the wrong candidates.
Fairness:
During the selection process the interviewer does not select the individual on the basis of his knowledge and hence the right type of the candidates is not selected.
Pressure: The people from the HR department and also have a lot of pressure from the top management and from other top class people for selecting the candidates they want. This ways the purpose of effective selection process of effective selection process is defeated as they have to select that individual whether or not he is capable of the job. That is being offered.
40
FACTORS AFFECTING SELECTION DECISION: Includes: Profile matching Organization and social environment Multi correlations Successive hurdles METHODS OF SELECTION: Unscientific method of selection: Physiognomy: Physical features such as shape of face, color, etc. Graphology: Selection is made on the basis of handwriting. Scientific method of selection: Photograph Letter of Application Application Blanks
References & Recommendations: Documentary evidences in favor of satisfactory performance in the past are provided by references and recommendations from the previous employer. Interview: Interview techniques are extensively used for the selection of employees in any and every job. According to Scott & Others An interview is a purposeful exchange of ideas, the answering of questions and communication between two or more persons. In other words, an interview is an attempt to secure maximum amount of information from the candidate concerning his suitability for the job under consideration.
41
Types of Interviews: Preliminary Interview: Informal Interview Unstructured Interview Core Interview: Background Information Interview Stress Interview Formal and Structured Interview Panel Interview Group Discussion Interview Job and Probing Interview Depth Interview Decision Making Interview: After the candidates are examined by the experts including the line managers of the organization in the core of the job, the head of the department concerned interviews the candidates once again, mostly through informal discussion. The interviewer examines the interest of the candidate in the job, organization, reaction to the working conditions, career planning, promotional opportunities, work adjustments and allotment etc. The personnel manager also interviews the candidates with a view to find out his/her reaction regarding salary, allowances, benefits, promotions, opportunities etc. SELECTION TESTS: According to Monappa & saiyadain Psychological tests are an objective and standardized measure of a sample of behavior. Features of selection tests: Objective: Refers to validity & reliability of measuring instrument. Validity: Refers to content of measurement. Reliability: Refers to the consistency with which the test yields the same results throughout the series of measurement. Standardization: It refers to the uniformity of procedure in administering & scoring the test.
42

CONCLUSIONS
This presents the summary of the study and survey done in relation to the Recruitment and Selection in DCM Shriram rayons. The conclusion is drawn from the study and survey of the company regarding the Recruitment and Selection process carried out there. The recruitment process at DCM Shriram rayons to some extent is not done objectively and therefore lot of bias hampers the future of the employees. That is why the search or headhunt of people should be of those whose skill fits into the companys values.
Most of the employees were satisfied but changes are required according to the changing scenario as recruitment process has a great impact on the working of the company as a fresh blood, new idea enters in the company.
Selection process is good but it should also be modified according to the requirements and should job profile so that main objective of selecting the candidate could be achieved.
Once again I express my sincere thanks to Mr. Mani Menon for their valuable guidance. I also extend my thanks to Miss Divya Thomas, Imran K. Sherwani who helped me during my project as they gave me their precious time to solve my problems regarding project study and gave their valuable suggestions for the fulfillment of my report.

LIMITATIONS
Though I had a very cordial relation with people at DCM Shriram Rayons, but there were certain constraints that came my way during the training period. The major hurdles that I came across were:
The organization was very big, so I could not cover every part of it. A major constraint was the time duration as it was just 30 days; therefore I was not able to do a depth study of the Topic.

SUGGESTIONS
Manpower requirement for each department in the company is identified well in advance. If the manpower requirement is high and the recruitment team of the HR department alone cannot satisfy it, then help from the placement agencies is needed. Time management is very essential and it should not be ignored at any level of the process. The recruitment and selection through placement agencies as the last resort and is utilized only when need. The recruitment and selection procedure should not to lengthy and time consuming. The candidates called for interview should be allotted timings and it should not overlap with each other.
