Preface
As we all know that human being is very much dynamic. Every moment there is a slight change in his/her behaviour. The success of any organization is depend upon the employee working in it. So right selection of the candidate is very much essential. We can select the right candidate when we are known about the personality of the person.

The psychological test of the candidate tells about the personality perception, attitude and his/her thinking. These tests enable us to judge the quality and skills of a candidate that how much he/she is fit for the job. The process of recruitment at IIHL starts from the

psychological tests. There are four tests "Belbin test, MBTI test, FIRO-B test, and social style test" to judge the psychology of a candidate. These tests reveal the overall personality of the candidate, which makes the recruitment process quite easy and smart.

My project is on the recruitment process at IIH and to make the recruitment process far better by introducing one more psycho-test i.e. "FIRO-B". This test helps in revealing the fact how much control the candidate have on him and on others also.

Care you products...


Brass Products Our products are protected by the most advanced lacquer available and under normal circumstances should give many years of service. They should be cleaned with a cloth moistened with soapy water or alternatively wiped over with a soft cloth with beeswax. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES USE ANY FORM OF METAL CLEANER OR AEROSOL SPRAYS. However, after a period of time the lacquer coating, especially on external fittings, can suffer a possible breakdown. Therefore, the life of the lacquer is beyond the manufacturer's control and cannot be guaranteed. When the lacquer coating has broken down, remove the brass fittings and coat using a soft brush with acetone thinner e.g. "Nitramores" according to the manufacturer's instructions. Completely dry the product using a soft cloth and metal polish, such as "Brasso" or "Duraglit". At this stage the product can either be relacquered or polished as and when required. A fresh coat of lacquer may be applied, but we strongly recommend that, especially for external use, you should leave the item unlacquered.

IIMT Management College, Meerut

23

Chrome Products Our quality chrome products are virtually maintenance free. However, deposits will accumulate especially on external fittings. We therefore recommend regular cleaning with a soft cloth and non-abrasive wax polish. This will ensure the original appearance is maintained. Stainless Brass PVD These products have an advanced vacuum treated process and we can offer a full 25 year replacement guarantee with the Exclusive Stainless Brass Finish. The technology involved in this process renders this surface impervious to damage in normal use including oxidation, wear and abrasion. All lacqered brass items require regular cleaning with nonabrasive wax polish. We recommend the removal of suface dirt by dusting with a soft cloth. Stubborn stains can be removed with the use of white spirit or similar spirit based products.

Cleaning and Caring for Stainless Steel

IIMT Management College, Meerut

24

Why Clean Stainless Steel? Stainless Steels need to be cleaned for aesthetic considerations and to preserve corrosion resistance. Stainless steel is protected from corrosion by a thin layer of chromium oxide. Oxygen from the atmosphere combines with the chromium in the stainless steel to form this passive chromium oxide film that protects from further corrosion. Any contamination of the surface by dirt, or other material hinders this passivation process and traps corrosive agents, reducing corrosion protection. Thus some form of routine cleaning is necessary to preserve the appearance and integrity of the surface. Stainless steels are easily cleaned by many different methods. They actually thrive with frequent cleaning and, unlike some other materials, it is impossible to 'wear out' stainless steel by excessive cleaning. Stainless Steel performs best when clean cleanliness is essential for maximum resistance to corrosion. Stainless Steel Maintenance Program All exposed stainless steel surfaces should be wiped over with a clean cloth and warm water with a mild detergent on a frequent and routine basis. For more stubborn dirt or stains use mild, non-scratching abrasing powders such as typical household cleaners. These can be used with

IIMT Management College, Meerut

25

warm water, bristle brushes, sponges or clean cloths. For more aggressive cleaning a small amount of vinegar can be added to the powder. Carbon steel brushes and steel wool should be avoided as they may leave particles embedded in the surface, which can lead to rusting. Cleaning should always be immediately followed by rinsing in clean hot water and the surface then wiped completely with a dry towel. The maximum recommendation for routine cleaning is once a month and more often in areas subject to heavy soiling or frequent use. Where routine maintenance is considered a pre-requisite of

compliance with an associated guarantee a 'Maintenance Log' should be kept for each installation.

PSYCHOMETRIC TEST: Psychometric test is a standardized procedure for measuring sensitivity of memory or intelligence or aptitude etc. Psychometric test enables a recruiter or employer to check your suitability with the particular position it gives the recruiter a wealth of information about candidates personality, interaction with people, perception thinking, with which we can easily judge candidates suitability with the position. It can be as an aid to short listing candidates for employment either as a part of structured interview process, or as a component in a more extended selection procedure. Many psychometric tests also check the integrity and honesty of a person. There is no right and wrong answer; it just reveals your attitude that the way you answer the question. These tests evaluate and reveal the hidden personality of an individual. It gives the right picture of candidates strengths and weaknesses. Hence psychometric tests are really useful in corporate world to judge the interpersonal skills of an individual.

Intro version b. Sensitive/Intuitive c. Thinking/Feeling d. Judging/Perceiving The various combinations of these preferences result in 16 personality types. These types are typically denoted by four letters, for example-INTJ (Introversion, Intuition with Thinking and Judging) to represent ones tendencies on the four scales. The MBTI instrument determines preferences on four dichotomies:

3. SOCIAL STYLE TEST:]


Why we concerned about social styles at work? Regardless of the job, work relies upon interacting successfully with customers, peers, supervisors, or subordinates. This is an especially important concept for managers; most executives who fail do not do so because they lack experience or technical knowledge, but because of their interpersonal skills. Because many management problems that are attributed to others actually result from the managers own behavior, it is important to understand and manage your behavior so that you can manage others effectively. SOCIAL STYLE CONCEPT: There are four social styles, and each person has a dominant style, which influences the way that he or she works. Observable behaviors are the key to understanding a persons style, and the best way to discover your own style is to obtain feedback from others. None of the styles is better than another; what is important is to recognize your own style.

IIMT Management College, Meerut

44

IIMT Management College, Meerut

45

THE FOUR SOCIAL STYLES:


As illustrated in the four-quadrant grid below, the degree to which you are seen as responsive (vertical axis) and as assertive (horizontal axis) determines your social style:

Responsiveness

Analytical

Driver

Amiable

Expressive

Assertiveness

1.

Analytical individuals display a lower level of both assertiveness and emotional expressiveness. They are usually precise, deliberate, and systematic in their work, and are organized, industrious workers.

2.

Amiable

individuals

are

generally

more

emotionally

responsive and less assertive than the average person. They tend to be sympathetic and understanding of others needs, and their trust in others may bring out the best in their subordinates, colleagues, and friends.

IIMT Management College, Meerut

46

3.

Expressive people are rather flamboyant with their relatively high level of both expressiveness and assertiveness. They are open to new ideas and to taking risks, and they typically make decisions quickly. Their spontaneity, humor, charm, and ability to persuade can lift the spirits of the people around them and can also be highly motivating.

4.

Drivers are highly assertive and emotionally controlled. These individuals are task-oriented, decisive, independent, and objective, and they are valued for their ability to produce results.

BACK-UP STYLES IN RESPONSE TO STRESS: If you are a Driver or an Expressive, you will probably become even more assertive. If you are an Amiable or Analytical, you are likely to become more passive. If you are an Expressive or Amiable, increase of responsive behaviors is likely; and if you are a Driver or Analytical, you are probably going to become even more emotionally controlled.

SURVEY I
Purpose: To find the effectiveness of psychometric tests.

1. According to you psychometric tests at ICPL are: Effective Not Effective O.K. 2. Do these tests absolutely reveal the candidate's

personality? Yes No Upto some extent 3. How much weightage you give to these tests? Upto 40% Upto 60% Upto 80% 4. Do you think all aspects of personality are covered in these psychometric tests? Yes No

IIMT Management College, Meerut

49

5. If no, then what other aspects of personality should be measured? Personality Control factor Team Role Reactions in different situations 6. Do you think any other psychometric test is required? Yes No

IIMT Management College, Meerut

50

CONCLUSION OF SURVEY I: According to the above survey and interviews taken from the team heads of HR we concluded that:

These psychometric tests are effective up to some extend in revealing the personality of a candidate including attitude, feeling, thinking, intuition, perception etc. They do not cover all the aspects of personality in terms of control and affection. There is no specific measure for individual hold on control for example MBTI mainly focuses on individual

characteristic and BELBIN on team roles hence these test are unable to give specific measure for control.

Hence we decided to introduce one more test, which will reveal the personality of a person in terms of control and emotions.

We studied different psychometric tests and made a survey on tests, which are being used by other multinationals. We thoroughly studied their constraints and their respective

IIMT Management College, Meerut

51

outcomes

and

finally

we

decided

to

introduce

new

psychometric test called FIRO-B This test is covering all the aspects, which are necessary for an organization like:

Inclusion, control, and affection. It also reveals what an individual expects from others in terms of control, affection and inclusion.

ABOUT FIRO-B: FIRO-B stands for Fundamental Interpersonal Relations

Orientation-Behavior. It is originally developed to identify how military personnel would work together in groups. It explains how personal needs affect interpersonal relationships. It provides a useful focus for leadership development,

teambuilding, mentoring programs and organizational change.

The instrument measures how individuals behave toward others and the behaviors they want back. Interpretations of an individuals FIRO-B profile can provide further insights into areas such as:

a. How individuals come across to others and why this may not be the real person, or the impression they intended to create.

b. How and why conflict develops between well-meaning people.

IIMT Management College, Meerut

54

c. How people can manage their own needs as they interact with others.

The FIRO-B measures a persons needs for:

Expressed Behavior (E) what a person prefers to do, and how much that person wants to initiate action

Wanted Behavior (W) how much a person wants others to initiate action, and how much that person wants to be the recipient

The FIRO-B instrument assesses interpersonal style- and its appropriateness in relationships on three levels:

1. INCLUSION: Expressed: I make an effort to include others in my activities. I try to belong, to join social groups- to be with people as much as possible.

IIMT Management College, Meerut

55

Wanted: I want other people to invite me to belong. I enjoy it when others notice me.

2.

CONTROL:

Wanted: I feel most I comfortable try to get working clear in well-defined and situations. instructions. AFFECTION: Expressed: I make an effort to get close to people.

implementation of the technique of computerized evaluation, is approximately 52 hours.

SUGGESTIONS ABOUT PSYCHOMETRIC TESTS:


TEAM HEADS CANDIDATES

SUGGESTIONS OF CANDIDA TES: It helps the candidate to be more confident and comfortable with organization by solving these general questions. It gives a picture of organizations work culture, which sincerely consider the employees attitude, thinking, perception, control etc. Four psychometric tests are too lengthy and time consuming. Asking the same thing in different manner in questions creates frustration among candidates.

IIMT Management College, Meerut

93

SUGGESTIONS OF THE TEAM HEAD:

All the four psychometric tests are very much effective in revealing the overall personality of the candidate, which help the organisation in judging the right candidate to the right job. There should be a specific time limit of completing these tests. The completion time of these tests should be I hrs 30 min. The concept of the psychometric tests should be made clear to other departmental heads for the better use of these tests. All the tests should not be circulated to every candidate. There should be a specific test for a specific position. Questions in these tests are repeated to check the

consistency of a person.

IIMT Management College, Meerut

RECOMMENDATION
These test results should be discussed with the selected candidates after the interview so that they will get to know the area where they need to improve. As discussed above all the four tests are made to reveal the personality traits for different designations or positions hence we should not give all the four tests to all the candidates to make the whole process less tiring. HR people should be more particular about the time limit of the test. HR head should clear the objective of these psychometric tests to other departmental heads also so that they can consider the effectiveness of these tests seriously at the time of interview.
