Recruitment and Selection Procedures of RIC

This report is prepared as a requirement of the internship of MBA Program of the Stamford University of Bangladesh. This paper is aimed at reviewing the recruitment and selection procedure of Resource Integration Center (RIC); an NGO in Bangladesh.

In the course of the three months working experiences in RIC on Recruitment and Selection Procedures, a clear concept on human resources practices of the organization has been developed. In this report, I have discussed the recruitment and selection procedures that are already in place in the organization and the gaps that can be resolve by the organization for its betterment.

For this paper, data have been collected from both primary and secondary sources in different ways; key informant interview (KII), document the secondary data and observation of few procedures were mainly involved. Key informants were asked regarding the mission, vision, goal and objectives of the organization. They were also been asked about the existing selection and recruitment procedure, gaps within the procedure and how to resolve those gaps for this organization.

This report has dealt with the detail description of recruitment and selection procedure of HRD of RIC. While preparing this report it has been tried to reveal the insights of the HRD program of the developer & a few recommendations and suggestions were also prescribed based on the observations and findings. At the same time for easier understanding of the report, supporting topics and terms are explained in light of textbooks and regulatory guidelines.

Some key findings of this report are as followed: organization did not have any detail written policy on the requirements of various positions. A standing committee regarding recruitment was found inactive; the organization had very little interest in new generation worker; publication of vacancy announcements in news paper or internal notice board was very rare; sometimes recruitment was done by only verbal communication rather than any written or viva exam; no specific committee were found for selection procedure and no specific criteria were found for some positions as well.

The information is valuable for future strategic decision in the workplace. The result of this study may have higher implications for other organizations as well. The study encourages the authority to take initiatives to develop, improve and update the recruitments policy and procedure according to the current situation and demand.

Human Resource Management (HRM) is concerned with the “people” dimension in management. One of the most important activities of human resource management is to develop and implement an effective Human Resource (HR) policy .HR policies are generalized guidelines and principles, which help management in decision making with regard to human resources. HR policy includes recruitment, leave, staff transition, policies related to salary & other financial benefits, staff development (through training, motivation etc.). The policies truly belong to the organization as well as to the employee. From the broader areas of HR policies I like to work with staff recruitment. I believe by developing and implementing a suitable and proper recruitment policy and procedures, primarily we can ensure to place the right person to the right place at the right time. This paper aimed at identifying the problem based on literature review, rationale of the study, objectives together with relevant methodologies, and expected outcomes etc.

Objective of the Study:

Main Objective:

This paper aimed at reviewing the recruitment and selection procedure of RIC an NGO in Bangladesh.

Specific objectives:

• To investigate the original procedure regarding selection and recruitment of the selected organization.
• To understand the current practice of selection and recruitment procedure of the selected organization.
• To find out the gaps between original and current procedure and to conclude with an appropriate explanation.

Scope of the Study:

This report has been prepared based on only one particular organization of Bangladesh. It focused on the nature, types and functions of recruitment and selection of the organization, accounts & audit and as wells the service department, operated by the head office of Resource Integration Centre.

Methodology of the study:

The information gathered for this report through the use of primary and secondary sources. Initial contacts with key persons have been made through personal communication. Sub sequent interviews with the concerned officials have been used for collecting information. Additional secondary information has been collected from company’s published yearly publications. Data and information are collected through the following ways:

►    Primary sources of data:

• Interviews both formal and informal were taken from the officers of RIC
• This study was designed according to surveys and both directed and undirected questions type of descriptive surveys.
• Observing the procedure of company’s activities followed by each department.
• Face to face interview with the respective officers of the office and MIS data has been analyzed.

►    Secondary sources of data:

• Various Operating Manuals, journals of RIC
• Reading various relevant files.

Deskwork: during the practical orientation I worked different desk in different time.

Limitations of the Study:

Every project has some limitation. During the course of my practical orientation I faced some usual constraints.

• Time frame for the research was very limited. The actual survey was done within a month.
• Large-scale research was not possible due to constraints and restrictions posed by the organization.
• In many cases, up to date information was not published.
• Getting Relevant papers and documents were strictly prohibited.
• Many procedural matters were conducted directly in the operations by the top management level, which also gave some sort of restrictions.
• To protect the organizational loss in regard of maintaining confidentiality, some parts of the report are not in depth.

Expected Outcomes of this study:

In 1972, just after liberation war, Bangladesh Government tried various measures to develop the nation. It was then that Non-Government-Organizations (NGOs) began to be formed to supplement government efforts at poverty alleviation. Since hunger is the most abject denial of the fundamental human right to life, these NGOs therefore served a definite purpose. Soon these organizations branched out in other social sectors e.g. education, family planning, reproductive health care, vocational training, etc. in trying to complement the action agenda of government, which in many cases was found wanting. (PPRC, 2003).

The main purposes of the NGOs are to assist the poor and poorest people of Bangladesh to rehabilitate themselves through primary health care, agricultural and natural resource and small enterprise development. (ADB, June1995)

Around one-third populations of our country are unemployed. NGOs are playing a vital role in this regard through effective Human Resource Management (HRM) to develop and implement an effective human resource policy. NGOs have been keeping evidence of better Human Resource Planning (HRP) that increases the performance of the NGOs. (Sen, 1996 & IFAD, 1992).

These organizations are increasingly involved in more complex technologies and are attempting to function in more complex economy, political and socio-cultural environments depending on the human resource policies. (Schein, 1997).

For the better performance of these NGOs with scare resources, Human Resource Planning (HRP is “the process of getting the right number of qualified people into the right job at the right time”) has become a necessity factor for long-term survival (Hossain, 1996).

Recruitment and selection

The important function of Human Resource Management (HRM) is Recruitment & Selection, Performance appraisal, Evaluation, training need assessment. Recruitment and Selection procedure is one of the major parts of the HRM. The main objective of this process is to recruit & select right people to the right jobs.  Most of the organizations try to follow some principles in the recruitment & selection process. Those are:

1. Merit & Skill basis recruitment
2. First priority to qualification & experience
3. Transparency in the whole recruitment Process.

Recruitment Process

An Organization will want to staffing, than assuming, that demand for certain skill, knowledge and abilities is greater than the current supply is recruiting.  Recruiting is the process discovering potential candidates for actual or anticipated organizational vacancies it is a linking activity that bring s together those with jobs to fill and those seeking jobs.

According to David A. DeCenzo & Stephen P. Robbins, “The more applications received, the better the recruiter’s chances of finding an individual best suited to the job requirement.” Edwin B. Flippo prescribes recruitment as, “A process of searching for prospective employees and stimulating them to apply for job in the organization”. William B. Werther and Keith Davis observe recruitment as, the process of finding and attracting capable applicants for employment. This process begins when recruits are sought and ends when their applications are submitted.

From the above-mentioned definition we can find some characteristics of recruitment as follows:

• Human resource Recruitment is a continuous process in a big organization.
• Human resource Recruitment process is very complex and costly.
• Human resource Recruitment process is done in the light of recruitment planning.
• Human resource Recruitment is a process between recruitment planning and selection.
• Human resource Recruitment process increases organizational image and assists to bring goodwill to general people.

After this discussion we can say that, human resource recruitment is a process for searching qualified people for the new and vacant posts in an organization and to influence them to apply for the job. It is important to know that perfect human resource came out from this applicant. It depends on organizational image, Job attractiveness, internal organizational polices, government influence recruiting costs.

Recruitments process:

 Once the organization has an idea of its future human resource needs, the next phase is recruiting new employees. Recruiting, the process of attracting qualified persons to apply for jobs that are open. Recruitment can be in two ways; internal and the external recruitments.

Sources/Methods considering at the time of recruitment:

• Current employees
• Former employees
• Referrals
• Walk-in candidates
• Executive recruiters
• University recruiters
• Customers

Selection Process

According to Heinz weihrich and Harold Knootz, “Selection is the process of choosing from the candidates, from within the organization or outside, the most suitable person for the current position or for the future position. Dale Yoder said that, “Selection is the process by which candidates for employment are divided into two classes those who will be offered employment and those who will not.” David A. DeCenzo & Stephen P. Robbins, stated that “Selection process typically consists of eight steps: 1) initial screening interview, 2) completing the application form, 3) employment tastes, 4) comprehensive interview, 5) background investigation, 6) conditional job offer, 7) medical or physical examination and, 8) permanent job offer.”

Recruitment is the process of finding and selecting capable applicants for employment. The process begins when new recruits are sought and ends when their applications are submitted. The result is a pool of applicants from which new employees are selected. Recruitment is concerned with reaching out and attracting a supply of people from which qualified candidates can be selected for the job vacancies.

The primary purpose of any recruitment process is to find the most competent applicants and choose those individuals who are best qualified for employment and to place them in jobs for which their talents, skills, training and experience are best suited. No organization can expect successful organizational growth unless it has an effective work force

Human Resource planning is the process by which an organization ensures that it has right number and kind of people at right place, at right time capable of effectively and efficiently competing those tasks that will aid the organization in achieving its overall objectives.

Recruitment is the process of generating a pool of candidates for a particular job. It aims to attracted qualified candidates. It pares the way for collection procedure by producing the smallest number of candidates. In order to do so, we have to consider the following procedure of recruitment and selection.

Tools of selection

• Application call
• Ability test – MCQ type
• Personality test
• Physicality test
• Interviews

Another procedure often use by the company is interview method

• Traditional interview
• Non-directive interview
• Directive interview
• Structured interview based on job analysis
• Stress interview to determine how an applicant will react to stress on the job.

Organizations consider the following steps in the interview –

• Plan: Review application and resume location of interview.
• Established Rapport: Ask non-controversial questions
• Ask Questions
• Review the interview
• Close the interview
• Some guidelines for the interviewer
• Use a structured form
• Delay the decision

• Get the interviewee to talk.

 Analysis and Data Presentation

For this paper, we have collected data in different ways; key informant interview (KII), document the secondary data and observation of few procedures were mainly involved. We interviewed few key informants regarding the mission, vision, goal and objectives of the organization. Besides, we also asked them about the existing selection and recruitment procedure, gaps within the procedure and how to resolve those gaps for this organization.

Data from KII were analyzed very systematically. With these textual data content analysis was done completing the procedure from the compilation of data to identification of theme. These data helped us to identify the gaps and how can we resolve those gaps to run the organization smoothly.

From the documentation process, we reviewed the recruitment and selection procedure of the organization in systematic manure. In the beginning we reviewed overall procedure are in place and then we looked into individual level those are already employed in the organization for several years. We randomly selected 30 individuals to review their recruitment and selection process. From our observation we found that in-terms of educational qualification sometimes-original system were not followed specially in the mid level positions. On the other hand, for relatively higher position criteria in terms of experience was not followed all the times by the organization. Out of our ten observations 5 (table#1) of them were not matched in educational qualification with the existing system in the Branch Manger (BM) position. Similarly, In Area Manager (AM) position selection criteria in terms of experience were not matched with the existing rule.

Table#1

To know the current procedure of selection and recruitment, we observed few procedures during our data collection using a checklist. With some selected points those are indicated in the original guideline we observed few interview cases and analyzed the information accordingly. After collecting the information we organized the data and looked into the original guideline following the steps are indicated. And after completion of this observation when we found any discrepancy in the process we talked to those key informants to know the reasons and explanation so that we can easily find the gaps in the existing process.

Findings

In overall observation regarding recruitment procedure we found some findings:

• The organization did not have any written policy about the requirements of various positions except some position.
• There was a standing committee regarding Recruitment, but the committee found inactive, even we did not see such practical practices.
•  The organization had very little interest in new generation worker.
•  Sometimes the CVs with familiar reference are given importance to recruit in selected positions.
• Although any employee got terminated due to some illegal activities he or she might have gained that position again without any punishment and in those cases no rules or regulation were followed by the organization.
• Some times there was no vacancy announcements found published in news paper or internal notice board for some positions. Even sometimes respected department or their representatives were not always informed of the matter about the recruit process was going on for her department.

Regarding the selection written or viva exam was not always taken for all recruitments. Sometimes it happened only by the verbal communication. There was no specific committee found for selection procedure. There were also no specific criteria found for some positions to recruit in the organization.

Recommendations

• Criteria should be followed for every position.
• The organization should ensure right people in the right places.
• Organization should build the separate policy for requirements & selection
• The policy should be updated so that it can compete with other organization as well.
• This policy should be reviewed by external expertise /reviewer at least in every two years.
