(1) Recruiting and selecting employees is one of the most important functions of personnel managers. Recruitment is the set of activities, used to obtain a sufficient number of the right people at the right time to select those who meet the needs of the organization. This process is very difficult sometimes for several reasons. Very often people with the necessary skills are not available. It is important to screen and evaluate employees very carefully to be sure they will be effective members of the organization. Some organizations have unattractive workplaces, low wages that make recruiting and keeping employees very difficult.

(2) To find the right people human resource managers turn to many sources for assistance. Advertising in newspapers and magazines is a means to secure new applications. Sometimes, blind ads are used to eliminate the necessity of contacting every applicant, since some will be unqualified. A blind addoes not provide the company’s name; it lists only a post office box number. One of the most important sources for recruiting first-level managers is the college campus. The most promising students are invited to visit the company, where other interviews are conducted. Another possibility is to ask for recommendations from departmental managers and supervisors.

(3) Selection is another constituent of a personnel manager job. It is the process of gathering information to decide who should be hired for the best interests of the individual and the organization. The expenses involved are very high – interview time, medical exams, training costs and so on. Selection process includes six steps:

a) Completion of an application form. Such forms help discover educational background, past work experience, career objectives, and other information directly related to the requirements of the job.

b) Initial and follow-up interviews. Interviews are used throughout the selection process.A member of the HR department staff often screens applicants in a first interview to find the candidate that has the requirements for the job. If the interviewer considers the applicant a potential employee, the manager who will supervise the new employee, interviews the applicant as well. Such interviews are helpful in testing an applicant’s ability to communicate clearly, to adapt to a stressful situation, and to clarify his or her goals and background.

c). Employment tests. Organizations use them to measure basic competencies, to test specific job skills and to help evaluate applicant’s personalities and interests. The test must be directly job related. This will make the selection process more efficient and satisfy legal requirements.

d). Background investigations. Most organizations are becoming more careful about investigating a candidate’s recommendations, work record or school record. It is simply too costly to hire, train, motivate, and lose people and then have to start the process over. It is not always easy to obtain this information, however. Many companies no longer provide references for fear of liability suits.

e). Physical exams. A complete medical checkup helps screen candidates. There are obvious benefits in hiring physically and mentally healthy people. However, if such tests are given, they must be given everyone applying for the same position.

f). Trial periods. Often an organization hires an employee conditionally. This enables the person to prove his or her worth on the job. After a period of perhaps six months or a year, the firm has the right to discharge that employee basing on evaluations from his supervisors.

(4) So, selection for employment is a process with a number of steps. The selection

process is often long and difficult, but worth the effort because of the high costs of

replacing workers. This makes selection an important element in any human resource

program.
