INTRODUCTION OF SELECTION
Recruitment has been described as the process of getting the potential
employees who are willing to apply for job. But selection is not easier
process. It is a problem of matching a man to the job. A well devised
selection process is very essential for the organization because if an employee
selected once, he will remain in the company for the number of years. Faulty
selection process will lead to low productivity and high labour turnover.
Selection is the process of identifying and choosing the best person out of a
number of prospective candidates who have applied job.
The process of selection leads to employment of persons who possess the
ability and qualification to perform on the post which are vacant in an
organization. The selection process divides the applicants into two categories,
one who will be offered employment and the other who will not be offered
employment. More candidates are rejected and less of them are selected, so it
can also be called as rejection. This is reason why selection is called a
negative process. Selection is the process by which candidates for
employment are distinguished between those who are suitable and those who
are not.
Selection means a process by which the qualified personnel can be chosen
from the applicants who have offered their services to the organisation for
employment. The Selection process divides the candidates for employment
into two classesthose who will be offered employment and those who will
be rejected. Thus the selection process is a negative function because it
attempts to eliminate applicants, leaving only the best to be placed in the
organization. In the words of 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 is the next step
after recruitment.
The procedure of selection is concerned with the securing of relevant
information about an applicant. There are number of steps involved in this
process. At each such step some candidate are dropped and the remaining
move on. Therefore, selection is a process by which an organization choose
from a list of applicants the person who best meet the criteria for the position
available taking into account current environmental conditions. According to
Dale Yoder, Selection is the process in which candidate for employment are
divided in two classes, those who are to be offered employment, and those
who are not.
Benefits of Selection:
Procurement of skilled employees:
In the process of selection only desirable candidates are hired and others are
denied the opportunities. Therefore, in selection the suitable candidates who
are fit for job are selected from among the prospective employees.
Reduction in the cost of training:
When through selection proper candidate are selected, this reduces the cost of
training. This is because the qualified personnel have better grasping power
and they can understand the techniques of working better and more quickly.
Selection to personnel problems:
Personnel problems are reduced in the organization when proper selection is
made. Labour relations will improve and workers become more satisfied
from their work.
Other Benefits:
Proper selection reduces the rate of absenteeism and labour turnover.
SELECTION PROCEDURE
The selection process stars immediately after recruitment. It is a process of
eliminating those who appear unpromising. Selection process requires
exactness. It is essential to study job description and application blank
simultaneously. Tests, interview and reference checking can provide extra
information about the applicants. It is not an easy process. In fact, it is a very
critical process.
The selection procedure consists of a series of methods or stages by which
additional information is secured about an applicant. At each stage facts may
come to light which may lead to the rejection of an applicant. Selection
procedure may be compared to a series of barriers which an applicant is
required to cross before he is finally selected.
INTIAL SCREENING:
The first step in the selection process involves screening i.e. shifting of
applicants to avoid further consideration of those who are obviously
unsuitable. Prospective candidates have to fill up some sort of application
forms which include the variety of information including personal and
professional. Those applications are selected, which meet the job standards.
APPLICATION FORM:
The application form is the form given to the candidate to fill the required
information in his own handwriting. This application form relieves the
interviewer from the burden of recording factual data. A variety of
application form used by these organizations these days but there is a high
degree of similarity between the application forms of different organizations
because the basic information required is similar in all cases. After screening
applications, the promising candidates are called for tests.
This application form generally requires the following information from the
candidates:
Personal information including name, fathers name, age, sex, marital
status etc.
Qualification both education and professional.
EMPLOYMENT TEST:
Formal testing of the candidates has becomes a common practice in
selection as a supplement to direct personal interview. A wide variety of
tests have been developed for potential employees of different categories.
TYPES OF TEST
INTELLIGENCE TEST
PERSONALITY TEST
APTITUDE TEST
TYPES OF TEST
INTELLIGENCE TEST:
Intelligence test is used to measure the mental capacity of the individual in
terms of his memory, power of understanding, verbal comprehension,

temperament of an individual. This test is conducted to predict performance
success for jobs that require dealing with people who are supervisory or
managerial in character. This test checks the ability of the person to interact,
to motivate, or to convince the other person.
APTITUDE TEST:
Aptitude test is used to measure the applicants capacity and his potential
for learning the skill required for the job. Aptitude refers to the ability of the
person of learning the skills required to perform the particular job.
INTERVIEW:
Face to face interview before the final selection is an important step, which
not only acts as a check on the information already obtained but also provides
the opportunity to form a better understanding of the candidate, to motivate
him, to inform about the job and the company.
PRILIMINARY INTERVIEW:
It is the first contact of the candidate with the company officials. The
information supplied by the applicant is verified and he comes to know of the
company in detail.
Structured Interview:
In this type of interview, question and areas to be covered in the interview
are decided in advance.

overlooked by the employing organization. Previous employees and
school officials can often provide valuable insights into the applicants
personality and behavior. The usual references are the previous employer,
educational institution of the candidate, and promising persons who know
the behavior and character of the candidate.

COMPANY PROFILE
Since 1998 the two ranges have been grouped as the 2000 and 3000 series.
The smaller models have a lighter cab, familiar to those who know JCB's
backhoe loaders, and three of them feature optional four wheel steering. The
four models have outputs of 115, 125, 135 and 148 horsepower DIN from
Perkins 1000 series engines. The larger models have engines of 150 and 170
horsepower and have an updated version of the original cab. The prelaunch in
1998 brought better engine performance and some up rating in the area of the
hydraulics, but the product is largely as it has been for the last nine years.
The machines are now assembled in the Heavy Products factory at Cheadle.
Assembly was moved from the smaller Cecily Mills site to the main
production facility in Cheadle in 2001.
This was because many of the components used on the Fastrac are common
to the new articulated dump truck, and so it made commercial sense to
produce both products in the same factory. Production rose to 1,300 units in
1996, only to be depressed severely by the crisis in British agriculture. The
Fastrac has won a following in the UK but it has not sold abroad in large
Numbers so far, except in Germany, France and Australia.
While one of the products attractions is that there is a wide range of potential
customers, the drawback is that they are not the usual users of traditional JCB
machines. The company overcame this problem by establishing a separate
company, JCB Land power, to both produce and sell the product. JCB Land
power developed a separate dealer organization alongside the existing
network.
The Fastrac has been sustained by a network that also offers the telescopic
rough terrain lift truck, Farm master wheeled loaders and skid-steer loader to
HISTORY:
The First product to carry a JCB logo was in 1953.This was a Backhoe loader
which people nowadays refer to as a JCB In 1960 JCB introduced the
famous 3C machine. This was a massive seller in its day, selling over
3000 in 1964. The new 3C machine provided the operator of the
machine with facilities for boiling a kettle in the cab. Mr. JCB visited
every purchaser of new 3C himself and presented them with their
kettle. Mr. JCB? customer visits became legendary and the 3C was an
overnight success.
The First product to carry a JCB logo was in 1953.This was a Backhoe loader
which people nowadays refer to as a JCB.
The JCB Load all machine was introduced in 1978 by JCB. A JCB Load all
weighs 11,090 kegs or 24,449 Lbs
STORY OF JCB:
An amazing new Exhibition called The story of JCB has now been opened
at JCB World headquarters in Rochester Staffordshire. The Permanent
exhibition covers a total of 2500 Sqm and takes people through a series of
14 Zones depicting the companys incredible history. Starting in the 1820s
when the Bam ford family were blacksmiths in Uttoxeter the exhibition leads
through to the present day and JCBs latest earthmoving machines.
The centerpiece of the exhibition is a life size skeletal model of a JCB200
tracked excavator, built using steel rod and created by renowned artist
Benedict Radcliffe. The jaw dropping artwork took 5 months to complete,
used around one kilometer of steel rod and weighs around two tones - a tenth
of the weight of the machine it represents!
The exhibition also covers sections on how the JCB name was built into a
global brand, JCB military products and the development of the JCB engine
and its record breaking Diesel max Car. A total of ten remarkable JCB
machines are dotted throughout, which had to be specially craned through the
roof as the exhibition took shape! They include one of the companys first
products- A hydraulic tipping trailer and a 1962 JCB 3 backhoe loader which
has been fully restored. A lovely new JCB shop selling all sorts of JCB
merchandise completes the exhibition space.
It is hoped that the The story of JCB will inspire future generation of young
engineers just like Mr. JCB

introduction of other new machines, meant that the product became only of
marginal interest. Introduction of other new machines meant that the product
became only of marginal interest.
Production levels declined and in 1992 the company decided to withdraw it
from the market. In May 2000 the company announced the launch of two
models with a capacity of 12 and 16 tonnes. This came as a surprise to many
industry observers, given the previous experience and the fact that this
segment of the market had not grown significantly in the intervening eight
Years. However, the launch of these two machines is believed to be the
prelude to the introduction of further models that will take JCB to the heart of
the volume sectors of the articulated dump truck market.
The new models are built at Cheadle alongside the wheeled loader and
Fastrac models.
INDUSTRIAL LIFT TRUCKS:
by existing JCB products. It is a large volume market, and one with a small
number of high profile suppliers. It is also a market Off-Highway Research
where product innovation has been limited over a long period of time. The
company believes that its highly innovative new product will capture a
significant share of the market. The model range is currently limited,
compared with those offered by the competition, but the company has
identified a particular niche where it believes its direct sales method and after
care support are well suited. Has identified a particular niche where it
believes its direct sales method and after care support are well suited.
The product design, based on JCB's knowledge of the telescopic rough terrain
lift truck market, is completely new to the conservative industrial lift truck
sector, where the massed lift truck dominates. This mirrors the situation in
1977 when JCB launched its telescopic rough terrain lift truck into a skeptical
marketplace. Twenty years later the company is a world leader and the sector
is now totally dominated by the telescopic variety. It anticipates a similar
situation will take place in certain sectors of the industrial lift truck market.
The company naturally hopes the change will not take as long but it is
committed to the new product and realizes the long-term benefits of being
successful. The product has the potential to be the largest selling machine
within the whole range, but it still remains at the stage of selling the concept
to a wide audience of skeptics.
The product is built at the Cheadle factory but if it achieves its anticipated
volumes, probably in excess of 5,000 units per year, then either a new factory,
or an extension to the existing site solely for the Teletruk is likely to be
required.
The product range currently consists of three sizes that are available in either
diesel or LPG variants. The unique forward reaching boom allows a quick

COMPONENT SUPPLY:
One of JCBs main manufacturing strategies is to increase its component
commonality across its full range of equipment. As the product range has
expanded this strategy has become increasingly difficult to achieve, but it has
succeeded in supplying a very high proportion of its machines with similar
components.

competitive product ranges in the industry.
