| description | The research was concerned with the proper implementation of
recruitment exercise in an organization. The purpose of the study was to
understand the scope of recruitment exercise and the planning of greater
strategies in order to conduct employees recruitment exercise effectively to
attract employees into the organisation. The study also explored the
challenges faced by the organizations in conducting recruitment exercises.
Six respondents were interviewed in this study. They were the human
resource managers, employees who left the organization to join other
organizations and employees who have served for a period of less than
two years in the same organizations. Each interview lasted for about an
hour. All interviews were tape-recorded and subsequently transcribed to
facilitate data analysis. It was found that most respondents believed that
recruitment is a continuos process. They also believed that the human
resource managers should understand the scope of recruitment process
such as manpower planning, selection, interviews, orientation, training and appraisal. One of the reasons why companies fail to recruit and attract
employees is the narrow scope of recruitment process. Organizations also
fail to relate the management practices with recruitment exercise. Beside
implementing the recruitment process effectively, the management practices
also equally important in attracting employees into the organization.
Compensation & benefit, communication, job satisfaction, working
environment, training and career development are equally important to
attract employees into the organization. Employees prefer to check on the
organization's practices before they join the organization. These practices
could attract employees join the organization. Consistent to the literature,
the respondents also stressed that the recruitment process must be
effectively conducted and the management practices must be related to the
recruitment exercise. A effective way of attracting employees is necessary
in order employ the right candidates. The organisation should able to relate
management practices and policies while planning to conduct recruitment
exercise. The recruitment process must be effectively implemented in order
to attract employees into the organisation. A framework for improving the
practice of recruitment and attracting employees was made with specific
recommendation for policy and future research. |
