​Introduction

​People are the integral part of any organization today. No

organization can run without its Human Resources. In today‘s highly complex and
competitive situation, choice of right person at the right place has far reaching
implications for an organization’s functioning. Employee well selected and well placed
would not only contribute to the efficient running of the organization but offer significant
potential for future replacement. This hiring is an important function. The process of
hiring begins with human resource planning (HRP) which helps to determine the number
and type of people on organization needs. Job analysis and job design enables to specify
the task and duties of hobs and qualification expected from prospective job HRP, job
analysis, job design helps to identify the kind of people required in an organization and
hence hiring. It should be noted that hiring is an ongoing process and not confined to
formative stages of an organization. Employees leave the organization in search of
greener pastures, some retire and some die in the saddle. More importantly an enterprises
grows, diversifies, take over the other units all necessitating hiring of new men and
women. In fact the hiring function stops only when the organization ceases to exist.

Recruitment According to Edwin B. Flippo, recruitment is the


process of searching the candidates for employment and stimulating them to apply for
jobs in the organization‖. Recruitment is the activity that links the employers and the
job seekers. A few definitions of recruitment are: Recruitment is a process of finding and
attracting 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
applications from which new employees are selected. Recruitment is the process to
discover sources of manpower to meet the requirement of staffing schedule and to
employ effective. Recruitment measures for attracting that manpower in adequate
numbers to facilitate effective selection of an efficient working force. Recruitment of
candidates is the function preceding the selection, which helps create a pool of
prospective employees for the organization so that the management can select the right
candidate for the right job from this pool. The main objective of the recruitment process
is to expedite the selection process.

​Company profile

TATA​ Steel LTD.


​Established in 1907 as Asia's first Integrated Private sector
Steel company, Tata Steel Group is among the top-ten global steel companies with an
annual crude steel capacity of over 29 million tonnes per annum. It is now the world's
second-most geographically-diversified steel producer, with operations in 26 countries
and a commercial presence in over 50 countries. The Tata Steel Group, with a turnover of
Rs. 1, 48,614 crores in FY 14, has over 80,000 employees across five continents and is a
Fortune 500 company.

Tata Steel’s larger production facilities comprise those in India,


the UK, the Netherlands, Thailand, Singapore, China and Australia. Operating
companies within the Group include Tata Steel Limited (India), Tata Steel Europe
Limited (formerly Corus), Tata Steel Singapore and Tata Steel Thailand.
The Tata Steel Group’s vision is to be the world’s steel industry
benchmark in “Value Creation” and “Corporate Citizenship” through the excellence of its
people, its innovative approach and overall conduct. Underpinning this vision is a
performance culture committed to aspiration targets, safety and social responsibility,
continuous improvement, openness and transparency.

India Operations
Tata Steel founded India’s first industrial city, now Jamshedpur, where it established
India’s first integrated steel plant in 1907. The Jamshedpur Works currently comprises of
a 9.7 mtpa crude steel production facility and a variety of finishing mills.

Two new Greenfield steel projects are planned in the states of Jharkhand and
Chhattisgarh. Kalinganagar project is underway, it is set to augment production capacity
by 3 MnTPA in the first phase. ​ Mines and collieries in India give the Company a distinct
advantage in raw material sourcing. Iron Ore mines are located at Noamundi (Jharkhand)
and Joda (Odisha) both located within a distance of 150 km from Jamshedpur. The
Company’s captive coal mines are located at Jharia and West Bokaro (Jharkhand).

Ores, Mines And Quarries

Tata Steel’s Raw Materials Division, also referred to as the OMQ (Ores, Mines & Quarries),
consists of four units -:

● Noamundi Iron Mine (NIM)


● Joda East Iron Mine (JEIM)
● Khondbond Iron Mine (KIM)
● Katamati Iron Mine (KTM)

While the OMQ fulfills 100 percent raw material needs of the Jamshedpur
Steel Works and the requirement of sister concerns, Tata Steel’s Global Minerals Group
has the responsibility for managing raw material assets across the globe. The Chromites
and Manganese mines and their operations have been amalgamated under the ‘Ferro
Alloys & Minerals Division’ that acts as a separate profit centre.

The Company’s Raw Materials operations in India are spread across the
states of Jharkhand and Orissa and more than 1500 personnel are working in different
mines of OMQ. All the four units are ISO 9001 (Quality Management System), ISO
14001 (Environment Management System) and ISO 18001 (Occupational Health &
Safety Assessment Series) certified. As steel production in India is projected to grow to
over 120 Million tons by the year 2015, expansion plans for OMQ includes enhancement
of production capacity from the current level of 13 MTPA to 18 MTPA in the coming
years.

Noamundi Iron Mine (NIM):

Location​:​ ​West Singhbhum district of Jharkhand, around 126 Km from Jamshedpur.


As NIM is the headquarter of the OMQ division, the Divisional Head General Manager
(OMQ) operates from Noamundi. The mine is one of the best open cast iron ore mines in
the world having state-of-the-art and sophisticated mining operations. Continuous
improvement and up gradation of processes ensures sustainable mining and responsible
utilization of natural resources.
Joda East Iron Mine (JEIM):

Location:​ Keonjhar district of Odisha

Mining operations at the Joda East Iron Mine started in 1956 and it has one of the richest
deposits of iron ore. At present it employs around 400 personnel. The JEIM operations
spread over an area of almost eight sq. km and the iron ore here is of hard and massive
type and runs on top of the hill practically from end to end. Mining is done by the
conventional Open Pit Benching System but processes are constantly evolving through
innovations and knowledge management practices.

Today, with its wealth of natural resources, Odisha is the focal point of development for
many industries. Tata Steel’s involvement in the overall development of Odisha takes
everything within its fold and the Company is committed to establish the State as one of
the most advanced in the country.

Khondbond Iron Mine (KIM):

Location: ​Keonjhar district of Odisha, around 18 km from Joda East Iron Mine

The Khondbond mine has deposits of sponge grade iron ore and also occurrences of
manganese ore. The iron ore deposit in this mine is worked by mechanised open cast
mining in a series of 6 m high benches. The Crushing Plant at Khondbond, established in
1994, crushes the ore in three stages to produce lump ore, which is dispatched for sponge
iron making to M/s. Tata Sponge Iron Ltd. (TSIL) at Joda, while the fines are transported
to the Steel Works at Jamshedpur. At Khondbond around 115 persons are working at
present.

​Katamati Iron Mine (KTM):


Location:​ Keonjhar district of Odisha

The Katamati lease held by the Company is the southern extension of Noamundi Iron
Mine in Jharkhand. The mine was earlier operated by manual opencast method.
Subsequently, in 2003, the mining operations were mechanized by a series of 6m high
benches. The run-of-mine ore is transported to the Noamundi Iron Mine, and processed at
the LRP Plant for Wet Processing. Around 25 personnel are engaged in this mine.

Review of Literature

NEIL ANDERSON said, Developments in personnel recruitment and selection


“technology” have been both varied and extensive in the 1980s, and a number of
overlapping and simultaneous developments are immediately apparent. Here,
“technology” refers to methods, strategies, techniques, theories and practices of staff
resourcing.

MARILYN CARROLL said, the article summarizes findings from recent case study
research into recruitment in small firms. The research aims to ascertain whether small
firms follow the procedures outlined in the prescriptive literature on recruitment, and to
what extent they rely on informal recruitment methods. It finds little evidence of the
adoption of the recommended systematic procedures and a high use of “tried and trusted”
methods including word-of-mouth recruitment and the hiring of “known quantities”. The
implications of this are examined. While these methods have certain advantages, they
may also give rise to a number of problems. The study argues that the adoption of more
formal procedures and methods could reduce staff turnover in small firms and its
associated costs. However, it concludes that many small employers would remain
unconvinced by the case for opening up recruitment channels, and may find their existing
approaches more cost effective in the short term.

DORA SCHOLARIOS said, Recruitment and selection experiences are part of a process
of pre-entry organizational socialization, also known as anticipatory socialization.
Graduates are susceptible to such effects as their socialization through exposure to
professional employers begins during training. Employers’ practices are thought to
contribute to the formation of realistic career expectations and the initial psychological
contract between graduates and employers. The present study found that students in
traditional professions reported greater exposure to employers than students in an
emerging profession through work activities, more proactive engagement in recruitment
events, and more extensive experience of selection processes at similar stages of study.
Greater activity, in turn, was related to career expectations, including varying levels of
commitment to an interest in the profession and career clarity.

MARIEKE VAN DEN BRINK said, the purpose of this research is to show that upward
mobility of female academics in regular selection procedures is evolving extremely
slowly, especially in The Netherlands. This paper aims at a more profound understanding
of professorial recruitment and selection procedures in relation to gender differences at
Dutch universities.

JERRY HALLIER said, The recruitment of young, “green” workers has long been
recognized as a defining characteristic of the Greenfield site. Extends understanding of
how person-centered recruitment, with its emphasis on employee acceptability,
disadvantages the older Greenfield applicant. Whether it is a new high commitment or
customer service site, worker age is shown to combine with the conventional recruitment
criteria of skill, class and gender to constitute an excluded labor segment. In its superior
capacity to shape workforce composition, Greenfield person-centre recruitment is shown
to be important to understanding the ways in which managerial control is pursued and
exercised more widely than within the labour process. Leopold and Hallier’s framework
of Greenfield types is also modified to encompass new customer service sites where
acceptability recruitment is critical to Greenfield employer’s labour relations strategies.

Interview Guideline for Experience Professional Hiring

Introduction

A job interview provides a valuale opportunities to asses the available talent pool and
learn about the candidates. Learning more about candidates will enable you to predict
more accurately how each candidate might perform in the specific position to be filed
and help you in selecting most appropriate candidate.

Guideline for Panel Members


Conducting the interview

Approach each interview in a positive frame of mind remembering that, although you are
a prospective employer, you are also a salesperson for your company and the job you
want to fill. As you are evaluating the candidate, the candidate is also evaluating the
position and you as a potential Supervisor. Be cognizant of keeping on schedule, leaving
a candidate waiting for a long time is discourteous. Remember your behavior during the
interview reflects the image of the company.

The following is a six-step approach to interviewing that can be modified to fit your own
particular needs and circumstances

1. Review the Application (Preparation for the interview)

You are advised to go over the information supplied on the application and/or resume,
Thomas reports of the candidates appearing for the interview in advance. This will give
you an insight over the profile of the candidate.

During the interview, you should ask the candidate to elaborate on his/her previous job
responsibilities or special projects. The nature, direction and enthusiasm of the
candidate's responses can provide you with valuable insight into the candidate's
communication skills. These responses may also give you an indication about what the
candidate finds interesting or challenging and how he or she is likely to fit into the
particular job. Ask the candidate questions related with the current job.

2. Introduction

Introduce yourself and greet the candidate with a handshake and a friendly smile. The
more nervous candidate is, the more important it is that you make an attempt to put him
or her at ease. You should offer the candidate a glass of water before beginning the
interview. Use ice breaking sessions to make the candidate at ease leg: tell me something
about yourself, tel me something which your CV doesn't say about you, etc.)

3. Describe the Job

Though candidate might know about the profile, you can describe the position in terms of
the

organization's structure, a description of their positions. It would be helpful to have a


checklist of essential job elements, responsibilities and requirements that you can review
with each candidate. The key consideration is that all candidates are left with basically
the same impression of "what the job is and “what the job requires”.

4. Candidate Self-Assessment

Encourage the candidate to assess him or herself against the job. In order to obtain as
much Information as possible regarding the candidate in relation to the job, encourage
responses with open ended questions such as, "How do you see yourself in relation to this
job?" or "What contributions do you think you can make to the work of the company?"
Avoid asking a candidate. Do you think you can do the job?" Encouraging an
open-ended assessment of this type will also provide you with feedback on how well you
have described the job and its requirements.

5. Candidate Clarification
Ask the candidate if he or she has any questions about the job requirements, working
conditions

prospective co-workers, supervisors, subordinates or other considerations. Let the


candidate know that you and the HR personnel will be available to answer any questions
that might arise after the interview.

6. Closing

Finally, close the interview by explaining what happens next in the hiring process and
thank the

candidate for his or her time.

​Parameters of Assessment Areas:

It is very essential to identity right by job personality of candidates. In order to set the

best fit candidate from the available basket, we must assess the strength improvement
areas and

out the same in Assessment sheet Following parameters can be used as guideline to the
fitness

of the candidate vis vis job requirement:

Functional knowledge In order to identity & ascertain that the candidate will not only be
able to

perform the activities related to the job but will also be able to explain verbally or in
writing about the activities of the job. This parameter will help in ascertaining the job
knowledge & technical competency of the candidate . The sub parameters basis which the
number for ‘Functional Knowledge’ can be en enunciated below:

Job Knowledge-job knowledge measures the mastery of the concept needed to perform
certain work. The candidate should have sound knowledge about the job activities. This
can be ascertained by asking "why questions about the job activities.

Technical Competence - Technical competency measures the level of knowledge, skill &
ability that the candidate possess. This can be ascertained by asking What & How
questions Application of knowledge/ Practical approach in problem solving This
parameter will help in identifying that the candidate can apply his knowledge over
working situation and brings practical problem solving approach to day to day working
scenarios. This can be ascertained by asking questions related to every day working
situations.

Functional Orientation This parameter will be used to ascertain the learning ability of the
candidate during the interview it should be identified whether the candidate is eager to
learn new things or not. The same can be identified by way of assessing following sub
parameters: Curiosity to learn for new technical areas This can be ascertained by way of
checking whether the candidate is updated about the recent technical advancements in the
job related areas or not. inclination & Initiation towards analyzing complex problem
situations for improvement .

Fit with Tata Culture -- One of the important aspects of assessment is to check the
cultural orientation of the candidate and whether the same is in alignment with company
culture or not. This is important to identity in the sense as the new employee will take
some time to orient in the environment & culture of the company, if the candidate is
already aligned to company culture, Synergy in work environment will be created. You
are advised to check the orientation of the candidate across our values Integrity,
Understanding Excellence, Unity and Responsibility.

Recommendations:

● It has been found that the company’s recruitment and selection process in terms of
personal interview, terms and conditions of the appointment letter and induction
training are highly comfortable from the employees’ point of view. Therefore it
has been suggested to the management to proceed with the same level of
satisfaction in the forth coming periods.
● Reference check is not done on regular basis. Hence, the company may make
reference check as mandatory one. This will increase the reputation of company
in the external environment.
● The employees feel that duration allotted for accepting and rejecting the offer
letter is very short. Therefore, the management may provide the extension of
duration from one to two weeks. This will enable the candidates to take right
decision for accepting (or) rejecting the offer letter.
● The study reveals that the company recruits the candidates based on needs and
mostly they do internal recruitment. It has also been found that the company
utilizes very less number of candidates from the colleges. Therefore, the
management may use other form of recruitment strategies which includes
consultancy, reputed college, advertisement for the vacancy, etc. Through this the
management can invite more qualitative candidates for their recruitment process.

profile in detail to the candidates at the time of recruitment. This strategy has been
found as attractive one among the employees of the organization. Thus, the
management may continue this strategy in future perspective.
● Few employees feel that they have faced nearly 4 rounds while majority of the
employees have faced only 2 rounds and it is also found that more importance is
given to the personal interview than other rounds. Therefore, it has been
suggested to the management to conduct common rounds for the candidates and
equal importance must be given to all the rounds. This will remove personal bias
from the candidates.
● The employees have shown positive attitude towards recruiting qualitative
employees in their group (or) team. It has left a positive impact on the morale of
the employees towards the company.
● Only half of the employees feel that their wants and needs are considered during
HR/personal interview. Hence, the management may consider few valid needs
and wants of the employees if not all.
