STARKE. (2000). Recent reviews of recruitment literature often have had a somewhat pessimistic tone. Reviewers have concluded that a great deal is still not known about why recruitment activities have the effects they do. In particular, recent reviews have criticized many of the studies conducted for being poorly designed, narrow in focus, and not grounded in theory. In order for future studies to result in a better understanding of the recruitment process, such studies need to be designed with an appreciation of the complexity of the recruitment process. • WORK BY KORSTEN (2003) AND JONES ET AL. (2006) According to Korsten (2003) and Jones et al. (2006), Human Resource Management theories emphasize on techniques of recruitment and selection and outline the benefits of interviews, assessment and psychometric examinations as employee selection process. They further stated that recruitment process may be internal or external or may also be conducted online. Typically, this process is based on the levels of recruitment policies, job postings and details, advertising, job application and interviewing process, assessment, decision making, formal selection and training (Korsten 2003). Jones et al. (2006) suggested that examples of recruitment policies in the healthcare, business or industrial sector may offer insights into the processes involved in establishing recruitment policies and defining managerial objectives. 9 • WORK BY ALAN PRICE (2007) Price (2007), in his work Human Resource Management in a Business Context, formally defines recruitment and selection as the process of retrieving and attracting able applications for the purpose of employment. He states that the process of recruitment is not a simple selection process, while it needs management decision making and broad planning in order to appoint the most appropriate manpower. There existing competition among business enterprises for recruiting the most potential workers in on the pathway towards creating innovations, with management decision making and employers attempting to hire only the best applicants who would be the best fit for the corporate culture and ethics specific to the company (Price2007). • R. F. (2007). WEBBASED RECRUITMENT Recruitment theory and research show that objective characteristics, subjective considerations, and critical contact send signals to prospective applicants about the organization and available opportunities. In the generating applicant’s phase of recruitment, critical contact may consist largely of interactions with recruitment sources (e.g., newspaper ads, job fairs, organization Web sites); however, research has yet to fully address how all 3 types of signal mechanisms influence early job pursuit decisions in the context of organizational recruitment Web sites. Results based on data from 814 student participants searching actual organization Web sites support and extend signal and brand equity theories by showing that job information (directly) 10 and organization information (indirectly) are related to intentions to pursue employment when a priori perceptions of image are controlled. • WORK BY SILZER ET AL (2010) However, the process of recruitment does not cease with application of candidature and selection of the appropriate candidates, but involves sustaining and retaining the employees that are selected, as stated by Silzeret al. (2010). Work of Selzer et al. (2010) was largely concerned with Talent management, and through their work they were successful in resolving issues like whether or not talent is something one can be born with or is it something that can be acquired through development. • CONNERLEY, M. L. (2013) Connerley reviewed research on recruiter characteristics (e.g., demographic variables, training, and behavior) and their association with applicant job pursuit intentions, perceptions of joborganization attraction and job choice decisions with a focus on how and why recruiter attributes could influence job applicant’s experience with the recruitment process. 11 CHAPTER 3 DESCRIPTION OF THE ORGANISATION 12 ABOUT THE COMPANY L&T Finance Holdings Ltd is a registered non-banking financial institution operating in India.

More precisely, HRM focuses on management of people within companies, emphasizing on policies and systems. In short, HRM is the process of recruiting, selecting employees, providing proper orientation and induction, imparting proper training and developing skills. HRM also includes employee assessment like performance appraisal, facilitating proper compensation and benefits, encouragement, maintaining proper relations with labour and with trade unions, and taking care of employee safety, welfare and health by complying with labour laws of the state or country concerned. Human Resource Management (HRM) is a collective term for all the formal systems created to help in managing employees and other stakeholders within a company. Human resource management is tasked with three main functions, namely, the recruitment and compensation of employees, and designating work Ideally, the role of HRM is to find the best way to increase the productivity ofan organization through its employees. Despite the ever-increasing rate of change in the corporate world, the HRM role is not likely to change in a significant way in to put measures in place that ensure that staffing levels correspond to the. 27 CONCEPT OF HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT Human resource management is a function in organizations designed to maximize employee performance in service of employer’s strategic objectives. HR is primarily concerned with how people are managed within organizations, focusing on policies and systems. HR departments and units in organizations are typically responsible for a number of activities, including employee recruitment,training and development, performance appraisal, and rewarding. HR is also concerned with industrial relations, that is, balancing of organizational practices with regulations arising from collective bargaining and governmental laws. HR is a product of human relations movement of early 20th century, when researchers began documenting ways of creating business value through strategic management of workforce function was initially dominated by transactional work, such as payroll and benefits administration, but due to globalization, company consolidation, technological advancement, and further research, HR now focuses on strategic initiatives like mergers and acquisitions, talent management, succession planning, industrial and labour relations, and diversity and inclusion. In start-up companies, HR's duties may be performed by trained professionals. 28 In larger companies, an entire functional group is typically dedicated to discipline, with staff specializing in various HR tasks and functional leadership engaging in strategic decision making across business. train practitioners for profession, institutions of higher education, professional associations, and companies themselves have created programs of study dedicated explicitly to duties of function. Academic and practitioner organizations likewise seek to engage and further practice. In current global work environment, most companies focus on lowering employee turnover and retaining talent and knowledge held by its workforce.New hiring not only entails a high cost but also increases risk of newcomer not being able to replace person who was working in that position before. 29 Features of HRM Human Resource Management as a discipline includes the following features − • It is pervasive in nature, as it is present in all industries. • It focuses on outcomes and not on rules. • It helps employees develop and groom their potential completely. • It motivates employees to give their best to the company. • It is all about people at work, as individuals as well as in groups. • It tries to put people on assigned tasks in order to have good production or results. • It helps a company achieve its goals in the future by facilitating work for competent and well-motivated employees. • It approaches to build and maintain cordial relationship among people working at various levels in the company. 30 Principles of Human Resource Management The HR department has transformed significantly from the task-oriented nature of administration it used to be in the 1980s. It is now viewed as a strategy- focused extension of every firm. The HR department thrives on specific principles, as highlighted below: 1. Commitment One aspect that the HR department tries to deal with is job security. To guarantee job security, many employees know that they need to show commitment to the company and their job duties. The HR management comes company’s needs and that, in the process, assure employees of their long-term positions within the organization. The firm demonstrates its long-term commitment to the workers by providing regular training performanceevaluations, and goalsetting activities. 2. Competence Competence is one of the core principles that supports a company’s growth and development. It is also an aspect that affects employees’ job satisfaction and how the company benefits society. The success of a firm depend on the competency of its employees. The HRM department tries to sustain workforce competency by providing training opportunities. It also 31 schedules orientation programs, which provide avenues to enlighten new employees on company’s mission and objectives. Training and orientation are essential in improving employees’ skills, knowledge, and competency. The benefit of having a competent workforce is that it leads to the production of safe and reliable products and services that consumers can rely on. In the absence of a high level of competence, a company will be susceptible to lawsuits and legal claims resulting from the products and services that it renders. Functions of Human Resource Management • Planning • Organizing • Directing • Controlling 1. Planning: A manager must plan ahead in order to get things done by his subordinates. It isalso important to plan in order to give the organization its goals. 32 Also, planning helps establish the best procedures to reach the goals. Further, some effective managers devote a substantial part of their time to planning. With respect to the human resource department, planning involves determining the personnel programs that can contribute to achieving the organization’s goals. These programs include anticipating the hiring needs of the organization, planning job requirements, descriptions, and determining the sources of recruitment. 2. Organizing: After the human resource manager establishes the objectives and develops plans and programs to achieve them, he needs to design and develop the organization’s structure to carry out the different operations. Developing the organization’s structure includes: Grouping of personnel activity into functions or positions Assigning different groups of activities to different individuals Delegating authority according to the tasks assigned and responsibilities involved Coordinating activities of different employees. 33 3. Staffing: Staffing is a process of manning the organisation and keeping it manned. Needless to mention that the future of any enterprise is governed by the quality of the hired personnel. In case the enterprise has failed to get right man for the right job, the accomplishment of the objectives of the enterprise will be quite difficult. So far as an HR manager is concerned, he/ she is required to recruit, select, train, place, compensate, promote and retire the personnel of the organisation at the appropriate time in a manner most conducive for accomplishing the objectives of the enterprise. The HR department itself is all about staffing. 4. Directing: The HR Manager can create plans, but implementing the plans smoothly depends on how motivated the people are. The directing functions of HRM involve encouraging people to work willingly and efficiently to achieve the goals of the organization. In simpler words, the directing functions of HRM entail guiding and motivating people to accomplish the personnel programs. The HRM can motivate the employees through career planning and salary administration by boosting the employee’s morale, developing relationships, providing safety requirements, and looking after the welfare of employees. In order to do this effectively, the HRM must identify the needs of the employees and the means and methods to satisfy them. Motivation is a continuous process as employees have new needs and expectations when the oldones are satisfied. 34 5. Controlling: Controlling is all about regulating activities in accordance with the plans formulated based on the objectives of the organization. This is the fourth function of the HRM and completes the cycle. In this, the manager observes and subsequently compares the results with the set standards. Further, he corrects any deviations that might occur. Controlling is one of the important functions of HRM as it helps him evaluate and control the performance of the department with respect to different operative functions. It also involves appraisals, audit, statistics, etc. 35 36 RECRUITMENT Human Resource Management, otherwise known as HRM or HR for short, is the function of people management within an organization. HR is responsible for facilitating the overall goals of the organization through effectiveadministration of human capital — focusing on employees as the company's most important asset. Recruitment is the first step in building an organization's human capital. At a high level, the goals are to locate and hire the best candidates, on time, and on budget. Recruitment refers to the process of identifying, attracting, interviewing, selecting, hiring and onboarding employees. In other words, it involves everything from the identification of a staffing need to filling it. Depending on the size of an organization, recruitment is the responsibility of a range of workers. Larger organizations may have entire teams of recruiters, while others only a single recruiter. In small outfits, the hiring manager may be responsible for recruiting. In addition, many organizations outsource recruiting to outside firms. Companies almost always recruit candidates for new positions via advertisements, job boards, social media sites, and others. Many companies utilize recruiting software to more effectively and efficiently source top candidates. Regardless, recruitment typically works in conjunction with, or as apart of Human Resources. 37 IMPORTANCE Recruitment is important because it brings several benefits to a business. Here are some examples of how businesses benefit from recruiting: Helps companies hire talented individuals: The recruitment process requires HR professionals to seek out candidates with the right education, skills and professional experiences for a job opening. They do this by using applicant tracking software (ATS), conducting technical interviews and other evaluation tactics. Allows companies to hire individuals who value the same principles: When companies have a strong recruitment process, it helps HR professionals determine whether candidates value the same principles and workplace culture that the company provides. For example, by look for and engaging with candidates who value a competitive atmosphere, HR professionals can hire and onboard professionals who thrive in their workplace. This also helps positively impact employee retention and job satisfaction. Connects companies with professionals for future job openings: Even if a company selects a different candidate, the HR team can stay connected to other qualified candidates who didn't receive positions. This includes keeping candidate files and performing outreach activities to previous candidates. Ensures that companies hire individuals who can help grow their business: When recruiters search for candidates, they use recruitment resources to connectwith candidates who hold the skills and qualities that could contribute to new business initiatives or goals. For example, recruiters assemble a pool of candidates for an IT branch within the company. 38 FACTORS AFFECTING RECRUITMENT 39 INTERNAL FACTORS The internal factors likewise term as endogenous elements are the componentsinside the association that impact selecting in the organisation. The internal forces i.e. the factors which can be controlled by the organizationare: 1.Recruitment Policy The recruitment policy of the organization i.e. recruiting from internal sources and external also affect the recruitment process. The recruitment policy of an organization determines the destinations or enlistment and gives a structure to usage of recruitment program. Factors Affecting Recruitment Policy • Need of the organization. • Organizational objectives • Preferred sources of recruitment. • Government policies on reservations. • Personnel policies of the organization and its competitors. • Recruitment costs and financial implications. 40 1. Human Resource Planning Effective human resource process and procedure helps in fixing the loops present in the existing manpower of the organization. This also helps in filterthe number of employees to be recruited and what kind qualification and skills they must possess. 2.

The major external forces are: 1. Supply and Demand The availability of manpower both within and outside the organization is anessential factor in the recruitment process. 2. Labour Market Employment conditions where the organization is located will affected by therecruiting efforts of the organization. 3. Goodwill / Image of the organization Image of the firm is another factor having its effect on the Different government controls forbidding separation in contracting and work have coordinate effect onenlistment practices. As taken Example, Govt. of India has the convention of reservation in work for booked 42 standings/planned clans, physically Disabled and so on. Additionally, exchange associations have the significant part in enrolment. This limits management freedom to select those individuals who can be the best performers. This can work as a potential constraint for recruitment.A company with positive image as an employer able to easier to attract and 43 retain employees than an organization with negative image. Organisations actions and activities like good public relations, public service like, charity, construction and development roads, public parks, hospitals education and schools help earn image or goodwill for organization. 4. Political-Social- Legal Environment Different government controls forbidding separation in contracting and workhave coordinate effect on enlistment practices. 5. Unemployment Rate The Element that influence the availability of applicants is the economy growth rate. At the point when the organization isn't making new jobs, there is frequently oversupply of qualified work which thusly prompts unemployment. 6. Competitors The recruitment policies and procedure an of the competitors also affect the recruitment function of the organizations. Time to time the organizations have to change their recruitment policies and manuals according to the policies being followed by the competitors. 44 PROCESS OF RECRUITMENT Recruitment is a process of finding and attracting the potential resources for filling up the vacant positions in an organization.

It includes job specifications and its nature, experience, qualifications and skills required for the job, etc. 46 A structured recruitment plan is mandatory to attract potential candidates from a pool of candidates. The potential candidates should be qualified, experienced with a capability to take the responsibilities required to achieve the objectives ofthe organization. • Identify vacancy • Job analysis • Job description • Job specification • Job evaluation 2. Recruitment strategy Recruitment strategy is the second step of the recruitment process, where a strategy is prepared for hiring the resources. After completing the preparation of job descriptions and job specifications, the next step is to decide which strategy to adopt for recruiting the potential candidates for the organization. 47 3. Searching the right candidate Searching is the process of recruitment where the resources are sourced depending upon the requirement of the job. After the recruitment strategy is done, the searching of candidates will be initialized. This process consists of two steps - Source activation − Once the line manager verifies and permits the existence ofthe vacancy, the search for candidates starts. Selling − Here, the organization selects the media through which the communication of vacancies reaches the prospective candidates. Searching involves attracting the job seekers to the vacancies. The sources are broadly divided into two categories: Internal Sources and External Sources. Internal Sources 48 Internal sources of recruitment refer to hiring employees within the organizationthrough − • Promotions • Transfers • Former Employees • Internal Advertisements (Job Posting) • Employee Referrals • Previous Applicants • External Sources 49 External sources of recruitment refer to hiring employees outside theorganization through − • Direct Recruitment • Employment Exchanges • Employment Agencies • Advertisements • Professional Associations • Campus Recruitment • Word of Mouth 50 4. Screening Screening starts after completion of the process of sourcing the candidates. Screening is the process of filtering the applications of the candidates for furtherselection process. Screening is an integral part of recruitment process that helps in removing unqualified or irrelevant candidates, which were received through sourcing. The screening process of recruitment consists of three steps – • Reviewing of Resumes and Cover Letters. • Conducting Telephonic or Video Interview. • Identifying the top candidates. 5. Evaluation and Control Evaluation and control is the last stage in the process of recruitment. In this process, the effectiveness and the validity of the process and methods are assessed. Recruitment is a costly process; hence it is important that the performance of the recruitment process is thoroughly evaluated. The costs incurred in the recruitment process are to be evaluated and controlledeffectively. 51 These include the following − • Salaries to the Recruiters • Advertisements cost and other costs incurred in recruitment methods, i.e., agency fees. • Administrative expenses and Recruitment overheads • Overtime and Outstanding costs, while the vacancies remain unfilled. • Cost incurred in recruiting suitable candidates for the final selection process. • Time spent by the Management and the Professionals in preparing job description, job specifications, and conducting interviews. 52 SELECTION The selection process can be defined as the process of selection and shortlisting of the right candidates with the necessary qualifications and skill set to fill the vacancies in an organization. The selection process varies from industry to industry, company to company and even amongst departments of the same company. The selection of a right applicant for a vacant position will be an asset to the organization, which will be helping the organization in reaching its objectives. 53 Different authors define Selection in different ways. Here is a list of some of thedefinitions − • Employee selection is a process of putting a right applicant on a right job. • Selection of an employee is a process of choosing the applicants, who have the qualifications to fill the vacant job in an organization. • Selection is a process of identifying and hiring the applicants for filling the vacancies in an organization. • Employee selection is a process of matching organization’s requirements with the skills and the qualifications of individuals. A good selection process will ensure that the organization gets the right set ofemployees with the right attitude. 54 55 1. Preliminary Interview This is a very general and basic interview conducted so as to eliminate the candidates who are completely unfit to work in the organisation. This leaves the organisation with a pool of potentially fit employees to fill their vacancies. 2. Receiving Applications Potential employees apply for a job by sending applications to the organisation. The application gives the interviewers information about the candidates like their bio-data, work experience, hobbies and interests. 3. Screening Applications Once the applications are received, they are screened by a special screening committee who choose candidates from the applications to call for an interview.Applicants may be selected on special criteria like qualifications, work experience etc. 56 4. Employment Tests Before an organisation decides a suitable job for any individual, they have to gauge their talents and skills. This is done through various employment tests like intelligence tests, aptitude tests, proficiency tests, personality test. 5. Employment interview The next step in the selection process is the employee interview. Employmentinterviews are done to identify a candidate’s skill set and ability to work in anorganisation in detail. Purpose of an employment interview is to find out the suitability of the candidate and to give him an idea about the work profile andwhat is expected of the potential employee. An employment interview in criticalfor the selection of the right people for the right jobs. 6. Checking References The person who gives the reference of a potential employee is also a very important source of information. The referee can provide info about the person’s capabilities, experience in the previous companies and leadership and managerial skills. The information provided by the referee is meant to kept confidential with the HR department. 57 7. Medical Examination The medical exam is also a very important step in the selection process. Medical exams help the employers know if any of the potential candidates are physically and mentally fit to perform their duties in their jobs. A good system of medical check up ensures that the employee standards of health are higher and there are fewer cases of absenteeism, accidents and employee turnover. 8. Final Selection and Appointment Letter This is the final step in the selection process. After the candidate has successfully passed all written tests, interviews and medical examination, the employee is sent or emailed an appointment letter, confirming his selection to the job. The appointment letter contains all the details of the job like working hours, salary, leave allowance etc. Often, employees are hired on a conditional basis where they are hired permanently after the employees are satisfied with their performance. 58 CHAPTER-4 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY 59 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY Research methodology simply refers to the practical “how” of any given piece of research. More specifically, it’s about how a researcher systematically designs a study to ensure valid and reliable results that address the research aims and objectives. For example, how did the researcher go about deciding: • What data to collect (and what data to ignore) • Who to collect it from (in research, this is called “sampling design”) • How to collect it (this is called “data collection methods”) • How to analyse it (this is called “data analysis methods”) In a dissertation, thesis, academic journal article (or pretty much any formal piece of research), you’ll find a research methodology chapter (or section) which covers the aspects mentioned above. Importantly, a good methodology chapter in a dissertation or thesis explains not just what methodological choices were made, but also explains why they were made. In other words, the methodology chapter should justify the design choices, by showing that the chosen methods and techniques are the best fit for the research aims and objectives, and will provide valid and reliable results. A good research methodology provides scientifically sound findings, whereas a poor methodology does not. We will look at the main design choices below. Research methodology is the specific procedures or techniques used to identify, select, process, 60 and analyse information about a topic. In a research paper, the methodology section allows the reader to critically evaluate a study’s overall validity and reliability. Objectives Of Research: The purpose of research is to discover answers to questions through the application of scientific procedures. The main aim of research is to find out the truth which is hidden and which has not been discovered as yet. Though each research study has its own specific purpose, we may think of research objectivesas falling into a number of following broad groupings: 1. To gain familiarity with a phenomenon or to achieve new insights into it (studies with this object in view are termed as exploratory or formulative research studies). 2. To portray accurately the characteristics of a particular individual, situation or a group (studies with this object in view are known as descriptive research studies). 3. To determine the frequency with which something occurs or with which it is associated with something else (studies with this object in view are known as diagnostic research studies). 4. To test a hypothesis of a causal relationship between variables (such studies are known as hypothesis-testing research studies). 61 TYPES OF RESEARCH DESIGN 1. Exploratory: As the name suggests, researchers conduct exploratory studies to explore a group of questions. The answers and analytics may not offer a conclusion to the perceived problem. It is undertaken to handle new problem areas that haven’t been explored before. This exploratory process lays the foundation for more conclusive data collection and analysis. 2. Descriptive: It focuses on expanding knowledge on current issues through a process of data collection. Descriptive research describe the behaviour of a sample population. Only one variable is required to conduct the study. The three primary purposes of descriptive studies are describing, explaining, and validating the findings. For example, a study conducted to know if top-level management leaders in the 21st century possess the moral right to receive a considerable sum of money from the company profit. 3. Explanatory: Causal or explanatory research is conducted to understand the impact of specific changes in existing standard procedures. Running experiments is the most popular form. For example, a study that is conducted to understand the effect of rebranding on customer loyalty. 62 Here is a comparative analysis for better understanding: Approach Used Conducted Exploratory Descriptive Explanatory Research Research Research Unstructured Structured Highly structured Asking Questions Asking questions through Time By using hypothesis Early stages of Later stages of Later stages of decision making decision making decision making Research begins by asking the right questions and choosing an appropriate method to investigate the problem. After collecting answers to your questions, you can analyse the findings or observations to draw reasonable conclusions. To be able to make sense of your research and get insights faster, it helps to use are search repository as a single source of truth in your organization manage your research data in one centralized repository. 63 TYPES OF RESEARCH METHODS Research methods are broadly classified as Qualitative and Quantitative.Both methods have distinctive properties and data collection methods. • QUALITATIVE METHODS Qualitative research is a method that collects data using conversational methods, usually open-ended questions. The responses collected are essentially non- numerical. This method helps a researcher understand what participants think and why they think in a particular way. Types of qualitative methods include: 1. One-to-one Interview 2. Focus Groups 3. Ethnographic studies 4. Text Analysis 5. Case Study 64 • QUANTITATIVE METHODS Quantitative methods deal with numbers and measurable forms. It uses a systematic way of investigating events or data. It answers questions to justify relationships with measurable variables to either explain, predict, or control a phenomenon. Types of quantitative methods include: 1. Survey research 2. Descriptive research 3. Correlational research Remember, research is only valuable and useful when it is valid, accurate, andreliable. Incorrect results can lead to customer churn and a decrease in sales. 65 It is essential to ensure that your data is: • Valid – founded, logical, rigorous, and impartial. • Accurate – free of errors and including required details. • Reliable – other people who investigate in the same way can produce similar results. • Timely – current and collected within an appropriate time frame. • Complete – includes all the data you need to support your business decisions. In this project, descriptive research design method is used that is data is collected through questionnaire. 66 RESEACH METHODOLOGY Rsearch Design: The research design was adopted descriptive research Data Collection Source: The type of data collected in this project is Primary Data and Secondary Data. The data collected is fresh from the current employees in the organization. In order to collect the information, the most preferred method of primary data has been used the Questionnaire. Sample Methodology: convenience sampling is used for the study. Research tools and techniques: Data collection: Questionnaire Data source: Primary Source, Secondary Source Sample size: 63 67 LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY • It is difficult to get response from people quickly • Limited time provided in recruitment process. • Limited people to approach on time. • Difficult to find the right peoples from recruitment for the particular profile. • Difficult to find the right method for recruiting process. 68 CHAPTER-5 DATA ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION 69 DATA ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION The collected data were not easily understandable so I like to analyse of the collected data in a method systematic manner and interpreted with simple method. The analysis and interpretation of the data involves the analysis of the collected data and interpretation it with pictorial representation such as bar charts, pie charts and others. Data analysis and interpretation is the next stage after collecting data from empirical methods. The dividing line between analysis of data and interpretation is difficult to draw as the two processes are symbolical and merge imperceptibly. Interpretation is inextricably interwoven with analysis. The analysis is a critical examination of the assembled data. Analysis of data leads to generalization. Interpretation refers to the analysis of generalization and results. A generalization involves concluding a whole group or category based on information drawn from particular instances or examples. Interpretation is a search for the broader meaning of research findings. Analysis of data is to be made regarding the purpose of the study. Data should be analyse in light of hypothesis or research questions and organized to yield answers to the research questions. Data analysis can be both descriptive as well as a graphic in presentation. It can be presented in charts, diagrams, and tables. The data analysis includes various processes, including data classification, coding, tabulation, statistical analysis of data, and inference about causal relations among variables. Proper analysis helps classify and organize unorganized data and gives scientific shape. In addition, it helps study the trends and changes that occur in aparticular period. 70 QUESTION -1 RESPONDENTS PERCENTAGE 25-40 43 68.3% 40-60 17 27 60 Above 3 4.8% INTERPRETATION Out of 63 responses, 68.3% people are from age category of 25-40, 27% people are from age category of 40-60 and 4.8% people are from age category of 60 and above.

Include all necessary skills, andinclude a list of desired skills that are not necessary but that would enhance the candidate's chances. • If we fail to do this, we might end up with a low-quality pool of candidates and wind up with limited choices to fill the open position. When we choose a candidate based upon the qualifications demonstrated in the resume, the interview, employment history and background check, we will land the best fit for the position. Based on our decisions about a specific candidate upon specific evidence rather than any gut instincts. • If we hire people who can do the job instead of people we merely like, we will have higher productivity and quality in our products or services. (Kevin Johnston 2017) The recruitment and selection process is the time we not only identify a candidate who has the experience and aptitude todo the job that we are looking to fill, but also to find someone who shares and endorses our company’s core values. 89 CHAPTER-8 RECOMMENDATION 90 RECOMMENDATION From the findings, I can suggest following things to the L&T Financial services.For the more effectiveness of recruitment and selection process and HR policies. • Recruitment must be done by analysing the job profile, which will makeit easier and will be beneficial from the company’s point of view. • More emphasis should be given on internet and advertisement so that more and more candidates apply for the jobs and it will be easy to find the right employee among them. • The recruitment and selection procedure should not be too lengthy and time consuming. • Provide training to all employees so that they get better knowledge skills and attitude. • Company should amend some parts of their HR policies for better effectiveness. 91 CHAPTER-9 BIBLIOGRAPHY 92 BIBLIOGRAPHY WEBSITES- www.ltfs.com http://www.hrmguide.com/ http://recruitment.naukrihub.com/ www.smartrecruiters.com/resources/glossary/recruitment/ https://www.tutorialspoint.com/.../recruitment_process.htm BOOKS – • Aswathapa, “Human Resources Management” tata Mcgraw hill • publishing company limited. • Shashik Gupta , Human Resources Management Kalyani Publisher. 93 • C R Kothari Research Methodology. • H R Journal of Management . • E – Recruitment and Human Resources Management in the flat world by Dr. Ankita Jain 94 CHAPTER-10 ANNEXURE
