 INTRODUCTION

Management thesis is a detailed study of an activity being performed. The topic of my thesis,

that is, the Recruitment and Selection life cycle adopted in Vodafone Essar Digilink Ltd. is the

study of the procedure that is imbibed in the organization to attain the best talent present in the

society.

It includes the various methods that are used to draw the suitable candidates for the job, the

decision taken by the management in regard to the date, venue and time of the interview, the

procedure adopted in informing the candidates about their selection and the formalities

thereafter.

While performing the above mentioned responsibilities, the management faces certain problems

but they expeditiously resolve them and carry out their responsibilities effectively.

Although recruitment has always held an important place within organizations the growing

demand for highly skilled staff has meant that effective recruitment practices are now becoming

a considerable source of competitive advantage.

The business environment is changing rapidly and so the organizations need to stay alert and be

proactive.

Hence, it is important to have a well-defined recruitment and selection procedure, which can be

executed effectively to get the best fits for the required positions.

Selecting the wrong candidate or rejecting the right candidate could turn out to be costly mistake

for the organization.

 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

The objectives of the study was accomplished by conducting a systematic design, collection,

analysis, and reporting of data and findings that are relevant to different marketing situations

facing the company.

The marketing research process adopted in the study consisted of the following stages:

Defining the problem and the research objective: The research objective states what

information it needed to solve the problem.

The objective of the research was to see the change in the Training Process due to the

management change.

Developing the research plan: Once the problem is identified, the next step is to prepare a

plan for getting the information needed for the research.

The present study adopted the exploratory approach where there was a need to gather

large amount of information before making a conclusion.

Collection and sources of Data: Market research requires two kinds of data i.e., Primary

Data and Secondary Data. Well-structured questionnaires were prepared for employees.

6
There were personal interview surveys mostly in office. The questionnaire contained both open-

ended and closed-ended questions.

Here, open-ended questions were more useful as it was an exploratory research that was

conducted in which the main objective was to get an insight into how people think in a particular

way.

Analyze the collected information.

Report research findings.

DATA ANALYSIS

Analysis of data is a process of inspecting, cleaning, transforming, and modeling data

with the goal of highlighting useful information, suggesting conclusions, and supporting

decision making.

Data analysis has multiple facets and approaches, encompassing diverse techniques under

a variety of names, in different business, science, and social science domains.

7
 Data mining is a particular data analysis technique that focuses on modeling and

knowledge discovery for predictive rather than purely descriptive purposes.

Business intelligence covers data analysis that relies heavily on aggregation, focusing on

business information.

In statistical applications, some people divide data analysis into descriptive statistics,

exploratory data analysis, and confirmatory data analysis.

EDA focuses on discovering new features in the data and CDA on confirming or

falsifying existing hypotheses.

Predictive analytics focuses on application of statistical or structural models for

predictive forecasting or classification, while text analytics applies statistical, linguistic,

and structural techniques to extract and classify information from textual sources, a

species of unstructured data.

All are varieties of data analysis. Data integration is a precursor to data analysis, and data

analysis is closely linked to data visualization and data dissemination.

The term data analysis is sometimes used as a synonym for data modeling, which is

unrelated to the subject of this article.

 DATA COLLECTION AND DATA SOURCE
