MOTIVATION:-
The job of a manager in the workplace is to get things done through employees. To do this
the manager should be able to motivate employees. But that's easier said than done!
Motivation practice and theory are difficult subjects, touching on several disciplines. In spite
of enormous research, basic as well as applied, the subject of motivation is not clearly
understood and more often than not poorly practiced. To understand motivation one must
understand human nature itself. And there lies the problem. In B.S.N.L as we all know that
it’s a government organization so there is not such motivational package as comparison to
what an employee get in private organization . The main motivational package is job security
and time to time promotion without much fuss about targets. Some motivational package
which B.S.N.L give there employee is-

• Free telephone facility

• Promotion

• Transfer (as per request)

• Time to time revision of pay scale

• Central government facility

• Quarter for accommodation

• Incentives and bonus

• Good working environment

Employee Training:
Employee training is the planned effort of an organization to help employees learn the job
related behaviors and skills they will need to do their job properly. It is a set of planned
activities that the organization will have their employees complete in order to increase their
job knowledge and skills and to have them get accustomed to the attitudes and social
atmosphere of the company. It will help the employee to be familiar with the goals of the
organization and the job requirement.

BSNL has many training institutes, located at almost all major states of India. ALTTC
Ghaziabad and BRBRAITT Jabalpur are two main telecom training institutes of BSNL which
offers world class environment and facilities to the trainee. It offers all type of telecom
training like new services and technology launched by BSNL, HR related training, finance,
induction, etc. The training centers of BSNL also offer training to Private Candidates on
various telecom related topics. Some of the important training centers of BSNL are :

• ALTTC Ghaziabad

• BRBRAITT Jabalpur

• RTTC Lucknow

• RTTC Patna

• NATFM Hyderabad

• RTTC Ranchi

• RTTC Guwahati

• RTTC Kalyan

There are more than 40 training centres of BSNL all over India. The training centers are
said to be BEST in telecom training.
Performance appraisal:-
In BSNL, Performance Appraisal has great role for employee’s future promotion.
Performance Appraisal, known as APAR (Annual Performance Appraisal Report) is written
annually by the employee concerned about his achievements throughout the year and then it
is reviewed by his next higher Boss. Any bad entry in APAR by the employee’s Boss may
hamper his future promotion, because any type of promotion either through departmental
examination or through time bound needs last 5 years APAR records of the employee and
adverse entry in APAR may stop his promotion. In BSNL every employee has a service book
which is maintained by the HR manager, known as AGM (HR) & SDE (HR). Service book
contains all type of information about the employee like his name, photograph, date of birth
& date of retirement, address, educational qualification, identification signs, carrier history,
leave records, awards and punishments given to employee, his family, trainings, pay,
allowances, etc

WAGE & SALARY

Wages and Salary Administration:-

In private organization employee generally get much more than that an employee of public
organization but the difference comes in benefits that public employee receives. Despite of
huge profit, good public image, best among PSU it pays less to its employee than other PSU.

If we compare it with other telecom PSU in its field like MTNL and TCIL then also its wage
rate is low. According to analyst the wage rate is set in comparison with profit earned by
company and wage rate of that industry.

This journey of 1 million to 50 million will keep it pace until each citizen in India will have

Present and future

BSNL (then known as Department of Telecom) had been a near monopoly during the
socialist period of the Indian economy. During this period, BSNL was the only telecom
service provider in the country (MTNL was present only in Mumbai and New Delhi). During
this period BSNL operated as a typical state-run organization, inefficient, slow, bureaucratic,
and heavily unionized. As a result subscribers had to wait for as long as five years to get a
telephone connection. The corporation tasted competition for the first time after the
liberalisation of Indian economy in 1991. Faced with stiff competition from the private
telecom service providers, BSNL has subsequently tried to increase efficiencies itself. Dot
veterans, however, put the onus for the sorry state of affairs on the Government policies,
where in all state-owned service providers were required to function as mediums for
achieving egalitarian growth across all segments of the society. The corporation (then Dot),
however, failed miserably to achieve this and India languished among the most poorly
connected countries in the world. BSNL was born in 2000 after the corporatization of Dot.
The efficiency of the company has since improved. However, the performance level is
nowhere near the private players. The corporation remains heavily unionized and is
comparatively slow in decision making and implementation. Though it offers services at
lowest tariffs, the private players continue to notch up better numbers in all areas, years after
year. BSNL has been providing connections in both urban and rural areas. Pre-activated
Mobile connections are available at many places across India. BSNL has also unveiled cost-
effective broadband internet access plans (Data One) targeted at homes and small businesses.
At present BSNL enjoys around 60% of market share of ISP services.

2007 has been declared as "Year of Broadband" in India and BSNL is in the process of
providing 5 million Broadband connectivity by the end of 2007. BSNL has upgraded existing
Data one (Broadband) connections for a speed of up to 2 Mbit/s without any extra cost. This
2 Mbit/s broadband service is being provided by BSNL at a cost of just US$ 11.7 per month
(as of 21/07/2008 and at a limit of 2.5GB monthly limit with 0200-0800 hrs as no charge
period). Further, BSNL is rolling out new broadband services such as triple play.
BSNL is planning to increase its customer base to 108 million customers by 2010. With the
frantic activity in the communication sector in India, the target appears achievable.
BSNL is a pioneer of rural telephony in India. BSNL has recently bagged 80% of US$ 580 m
(INR 2,500 crores) Rural Telephony project of Government of India.

On the 20th of March, 2009, BSNL advertised the launch of BlackBerry services across its
Telecom circles in India. The corporation has also launched 3G services in select cities across
the country. Presently, BSNL and MTNL are the only players to provide 3G services, as the
Government is still in the process of auctioning the 3G spectrum to private players.

BSNL has also launched a Entertainment Portal called BSNL Hungama Portal from where
subscribers could download contents like music, music videos for free and also download or
play various games online. Only Tamil, Kannada, Telugu & Hindi are provided at present.
Hopes are there that the database could be expanded. BSNL charges a fixed monthly
subscription fee for this function.

Challenges

During the financial year 2008-2009 (from April 1, 2009 to March 31, 2009) BSNL has
added 8.1 million new customers in various telephone services taking its customer base to
75.9 million. BSNL's nearest competitor Bharti Airtel is standing at a customer base of 62.3
million. However, despite impressive growth shown by BSNL in recent times, the fixed line

 OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY

I have undertaken the project “RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION PROCESS IN

BHART SANCHAR NIGAM LTD.” In order to study the following:-

1. To know “RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION practices at BHART SANCHAR

NIGAM LTD. And to assess the effectiveness.

efficiency for the job, to reduce or to prevent the cost incurred during RECRUITMENT AND

SELECTION process or reduce the losses the occurred due to the errors by the employees,

who are not appropriate for the respective job.

 NEED & IMPORTANCE OF THE STUDY

This project entailed RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION is carried out with a view to
identify the effects at recruitment on an individual and organization as a whole would
improve the organizational effectiveness.

With the changing scenario of the world trade new concepts have to be adopted. When
it comes to organization the whole work force starting from the

So an organization for its growth needs continuous changes both in form of

Technology as well as human resources. In this context, the human resources department
which looks after the human factor. New technologies may come in but if the work force of
the organization is not properly equipped mentally as well as physically to handle the work
combination of maim and machine is most likely not to click.

The role of RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION. The human resource department

needs to identify the correct personnel for each job for avoiding the wastage of money and
time as well as valuable resources of the organization.
 Recruitment & Selection

Recruitment & selection are two of the most important functions of personal
management. Recruitment precedes selection and helps in selecting a right candidate.

Recruitment is a process to discover the sources of manpower to meet the

recruitment of the staffing schedule and to employee effective measures for attracting that
manpower in adequate numbers to facilitate effective selection of efficient personal.

Staffing in one basic function of management. All managers have

responsibility of staffing function by selecting the chief executive and even the foremen
and supervisors have a staffing responsibility when they select the rank and file workers.
However, the personnel manager and his personnel department is mainly connected with
the staffing function.

Every organization needs to look after recruitment & selection in the initial
period and thereafter as and when additional manpower is required due to expansion and
development of business activities.

‘Right person for the right job’ is basic principle in recruitment and selection. Ever
organization should give attention to the selection of its manpower, especially its
managers. The operative manpower is equally important and essential for the orderly
different business activities smoothly and efficiently and for this recruitment & selection
of suitable candidates are essential. Human resource management in an organization will
not be possible if unsuitable persons are selected and selected and employment in
business unit.
1.1 MEANING:

RECRUITMENT

“Recruitment is the process of searching for prospective employee and stimulating them to
apply for job in the organization. It is often termed positive in that it stimulates people to
apply for job to increases the number of applicant for a job.”

Recruitment refers to the process of findings possible candidates for a job or function, usually
under taken by recruiters. It may also be undertaken by an employee agency or a member of
staff at the business or organization looking for recruits.

Evidence of skill required for a job may be provided in the form of qualification (educational
or professional ) , experienced in a job requiring the relevant skills or the testimony of
references. Employment agencies may also give computerized tests to assess an individual’s
technical or non technical knowledge. At a more basic level, written test are usually given to
assess the numeric, logical ability, etc. a candidate is also assessed on the basis of interview.

Head hunting is a frequently used name when referring to third party recruiters, but there are
significant differences. In general a company employs a head hunter when the normal
recruitment efforts fail to provide a viable candidate for the job. Head hunter are generally
more aggressive than in house recruiters, and generally use advanced techniques such as
initially posing client’s together names of employees of their designations or job titles, etc.
They also prepare a candidate for the interview, negotiate salary, etc. In general in house
recruiters will do their best to attract candidates for specific jobs.

Def inition:

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 NEEDS

1. Planned: the needs that arise from changes in organization and retirement
policy.

2. Anticipated: Anticipated needs are those movements in personnel, which an

organization can predict by studying trends in internal and external
environment.

3. Unexpected: resignation, deaths, accidents, illness give rise to unexpected

needs.

SOURCES OF RECRUITMENT

Recruiters can be divided into groups: those working internally for a single organization and
those working for multiple clients in a third party broker relationship, sometimes called
headhunters.

AT BHARAT SANCHAR NIGAM LTD., recruitment is done through the following

methods:

INTERNAL SOURCES OF RECRUITMENT

1. TRANSFERS

The employees are transferred from one department to another according to their efficiency
and experience.

2. PROMOTIONS

The employees are promoted from one department to another with more benefits and greater
responsibility based on efficiency and experience.
3. Others are Upgrading and Demotion of present employees according to their performance.

4. Retired and Retrenched employees may also be recruited once again in case of shortage of
qualified personnel or increase in load of work. Recruitment such people save time and costs
of the organizations as the people are already aware of the organizational culture and the
policies and procedures.

5. The dependents and relatives of Deceased employees and Disabled employees are also
done by many companies so that the members of the family do not become dependent on the
mercy of others.

Advantages: -

1. Motivated employees and higher morale

2. Employees familiar with the organization

3. Higher probability of success

4. Industrial Peace

5. Relatively inexpensive

6. Training and skill enhancement

7. Overcoming surpluses and shortages.

Disadvantages: -

1. Reduced scope for fresh talent.

2. Employees may become lethargic if they are sure of time bound promotions

3. Spirit of competition may be hampered

4. Frequent transfers of employees may reduce the overall productivity of the organization.

5. Political infighting for promotion.

EXTERNAL SOURCES OF RECRUITMENT

1. PRESS ADVERTISEMENTS: Advertisements of the vacancy in newspapers and

journals are a widely used source of recruitment. The main advantage of this method is that it

has a wide reach. It is generally followed in BSNL.

2. EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTES: Various management institutes, engineering colleges,

medical Colleges etc. are a good source of recruiting well qualified executives, engineers,

medical staff etc. They provide facilities for campus interviews and placements. This source

is known as Campus Recruitment. This has not been done till date, but board of directors of

BSNL may opt for campus selection for the management trainee (MT) posts, to be advertised

this year.

3. EMPLOYMENT EXCHANGES: Government establishes public employment exchanges

throughout the country. These exchanges provide job information to job seekers and help

employers in identifying suitable candidates.

4. LABOUR CONTRACTORS: Manual workers can be recruited through contractors who

maintain close contacts with the sources of such workers. This source is used to recruit labor

for construction jobs.

5. UNSOLICITED APPLICANTS: Many job seekers visit the office of well-known

companies on their own. Such callers are considered nuisance to the daily work routine of the

enterprise. But can help in creating the talent pool or the database of the probable candidates

for the organization.

6. EMPLOYEE REFERRALS / RECOMMENDATIONS: Many organizations have

structured system where the current employees of the organization can refer their friends and
relatives for some position in their organization. Also, the office bearers of trade unions are

often aware of the suitability of candidates. Management can inquire these leaders for

suitable jobs. In some organizations these are formal agreements to give priority in

recruitment to the candidates recommended by the trade union.

7. RECRUITMENT AT FACTORY GATE: Unskilled workers may be recruited at the

factory gate these may be employed whenever a permanent worker is absent. More efficient

among these may be recruited to fill permanent vacancies.

Advantages: -

1. Qualified Personnel

2. Wider Choice

3. Fresh Talent

4. Competitive Spirit

Disadvantages: -

1. Dissatisfaction amongst existing staff

2. Lengthy process (Increased adjustment period)

3. Costly Process

4. Uncertain Process
 RECRUITMENT POLICY

In today’s rapidly changing business environment, a well defined recruitment policy is

necessary for organizations to respond to its human resource requirements in time. Therefore,

it is important to have a clear and concise recruitment policy in place, which can be executed

effectively to recruit the best talent pool for the selection of the right candidate at the right

place quickly. Creating a suitable recruitment policy is the first step in the efficient hiring

process. A clear and concise recruitment policy helps ensure a sound recruitment process.

It specifies the objectives of recruitment and provides a framework for implementation of

recruitment programmed. It may involve organizational system to be developed for

implementing recruitment programmers and procedures by filling up vacancies with best

qualified people.

COMPONENTS OF THE RECRUITMENT POLICY

• The general recruitment policies and terms of the organization

• Recruitment services of consultants

• Recruitment of temporary employees

• Unique recruitment situations

• The selection process

• The job descriptions

• The terms and conditions of the employment.

A recruitment policy of an organization should be such that:

• It should focus on recruiting the best potential people.

• To ensure that every applicant and employee is treated equally with dignity and respect.
• Unbiased policy.
• To aid and encourage employees in realizing their full potential.
• Defining the competent authority to approve each selection.
• Abides by relevant public policy and legislation on hiring and employment relationship.
• Integrates employee needs with the organizational needs.
• Transparent, task oriented and merit based selection.
• Weight age during selection given to factors that suit organization needs.
• Optimization of manpower at the time of selection process.

FACTORS AFFECTING RECRUITMENT POLICY

• Organizational objectives
• Personnel policies of the organization and its competitors.
• Government policies on reservations.
• Preferred sources of recruitment.
• Need of the organization.
• Recruitment costs and financial implications.

FORMS OF RECRUITMENT

The organizations differ in terms of their size, business, processes and practices. A few

decisions by the recruitment professionals can affect the productivity and efficiency of the

organization. Organizations adopt different forms of recruitment practices according to

the specific needs of the organization. The organizations can choose from the centralized

or decentralized forms of recruitment, explained below:

 Centralized Recruitment

The recruitment practices of an organization are centralized when the HR / recruitment

department at the head office performs all functions of recruitment. Recruitment decisions

for all the business verticals and departments of an organization are carried out by the one

central HR (or recruitment) department. Centralized from of recruitment is commonly seen

in government organizations and it also established in BSNL. Executive’s level posts are

being recruited on All India Basis and non-executives level posts are being recruited by

Circle (State) heads.

Benefits of the centralized form of recruitment are:

• Reduces administration costs

• Better utilization of specialists

• Uniformity in recruitment

• Interchangeability of staff

• Reduces favoritism

• Every department sends requisitions for recruitment to their central office

Decentralized Recruitment

Decentralized recruitment practices are most commonly seen in the case of conglomerates

operating in different and diverse business areas. With diverse and geographically spread

business areas and offices, it becomes important to understand the needs of each department

and frame the recruitment policies and procedures accordingly. Each department carries out

its own recruitment. Choice between the two will depend upon management philosophy and
needs of particular organization. In some cases combination of both is used. Lower level

staffs as well as top level executives are recruited in a decentralized manner. In BSNL,

generally local type of work is done by district head on contract basis.

RECRUITMENT STRATEGIES

Recruitment is of the most crucial roles of the human resource professionals. The level of

performance of an organization depends on the effectiveness of its recruitment function.

Organizations have developed and follow recruitment strategies to hire the best talent for

their organization and to utilize their resources optimally. A successful recruitment strategy

should be well planned and practical to attract more and good talent to apply in the

organization.

For formulating an effective and successful recruitment strategy, the strategy should cover

the following elements:

1. Identifying and prioritizing jobs

Requirements keep arising at various levels in every organization; it is almost a never-ending

process. It is impossible to fill all the positions immediately. Therefore, there is a need to

identify the positions requiring immediate attention and action. To maintain the quality of the

recruitment activities, it is useful to prioritize the vacancies whether to focus on all vacancies

equally or focusing on key jobs first.

2. Candidates to target

The recruitment process can be effective only if the organization completely understands the

requirements of the type of candidates that are required and will be beneficial for the

organization. This covers the following parameters as well:

 Performance level required: Different strategies are required for focusing on hiring high

performers and average performers.

 Experience level required: the strategy should be clear as to what is the experience level

required by the organization. The candidate’s experience can range from being a fresher to

experienced senior professionals.

 Category of the candidate: the strategy should clearly define the target candidate. He/she

can be from the same industry, different industry, unemployed, top performers of the industry

etc.

3. Sources of recruitment

The strategy should define various sources (external and internal) of recruitment. Trained
recruiters. The recruitment professionals conducting the interviews and the other recruitment
activities should be well-trained and experienced to conduct the activities. They should also
be aware of the major parameters and skills (e.g.: behavioral, technical etc.) to focus while
interviewing and selecting a candidate.

4. How to evaluate the candidates: The various parameters and the ways to judge them i.e.
the entire recruitment process should be planned in advance. Like the rounds of technical
interviews, HR interviews, written tests, psychometric tests etc.
 Recruitment Process

1. Identify Vacancy
2. Advertising the vacancy
3. Managing the response
4. Short- listing
5. Arrange- test & interview
6. Conducting final process for appointment.

For executives

JTO - B.tech degree is necessary

JAO - MCOM/CA/CS is must + MBA (Finance)

PA - Graduate + O level degree in computer

Management Trainee (MT) – B.tech+MBA OR CA/CS +MBA

For Non-executives :

Graduation OR Diploma

However MBA degree holder may have some chances in near future
when MT (Higher level of executives) level of exam will be conducted on
regular intervals.

Level of executives can be charted as (in increasing order ):

JTO/JAO/PA » SDE/AO » ADET (MT) » DET/AGM/CAO » DGM

» GM » CGM » Board of Directors » CMD

The recruitment on the post of CMD and Board of Directors are based on Interview
performed by a independent government committee called PSEB

FLOWCHART OF THE RECRUITMENT AND SELECTION PROCESS

At Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd.

In the present system, as soon as there is a vacancy, a requisition comes from the relevant
department to the personnel department.

Personnel department finds out of the vacancy can be fulfilled internally, and so an internal
notification is sent across to all units for the same.

In case, the vacancy cannot be fulfilled internally, external sourcing i.e. advertisements,
jobsites, consultants and personal references, is opted for.

↓
 Resumes received are screened and appropriate applicants are called for the test.

A test is conducted at the entry level, and the candidates short listed are called for
interview.

A round of interview are conducted and then, the candidates are short listed for the
required post as per vacancy.

Reference check is done and fitment is decided. then, offer letter is given to the candidate.

If the offer is accepted, joining formalities are done.

The selected candidate goes through the induction and probation before the final
absorption.

These processes are meant for both executives and non-executive employee.
However no interview is called for the non-executives. The recruitment process
for Management Trainee (MT) may also be started soon where MBA students
have opportunity for selection in esteemed govt. organization like BSNL.

RECOMMENDATION AND
LIMITATION OF THE STUDY
 LIMITATIONS

In a research, there is always some limitation. Therefore, no research can be perfect. In this
research procedure, the following limitations were there.

1. TIME BOUNDATION

Because of time problem, only a few topics were covered by me, otherwise I would

Have covered some more topics.

1. PERSONAL ‘S ATTITUDE

• Some personnel were hesitating in giving appropriate information.

• Some personnel were very busy, that is why their response could not be collected .
• Few respondents who are not familiar may give a neutral or unfavorable response to
some of the questions.
 CONCLUSION

Today, BHART SANCHAR NIGAM LTD. Is the fourth largest cellular service provider.
During my project work, I‘ve noticed that the HR & Administration of BHART SANCHAR
NIGAM LTD. Is very hard working and efficient too. Therefore, anybody would like to work
for it and want to be a part of it.

The Recruitment & Selection Criteria is very good here and they keep on improving the
way they work for it. Moreover, the training program is very sound and employee does not
face any problem during the training period.

In this report, it can very easily be concluded that BSNL, holds recruitment for internal
sources.

Employees having some dissatisfied the recruitment & selection process.

Employees will definitely refer the company to their friend & relative to apply for the job.

Both employers & employees having good interpersonal relationship.

Recruitment is the importance of organization. An organization should thus recognize

employees more than any other variable, as powerful contributors of a company’s
competitive position.

Therefore the recruitment should be continuous process for improvement.

 RECOMMENDATION

The company has made considerable progress since its establishment . Based on my study on
“Effectiveness of Recruitment & Selection in BHART SANCHAR NIGAM LTD.”,now I
am in a state to extract some meaning out of it that the effectiveness is quite well and
favorable ,but in order to remain competitive and maintain stability, there is always some
scope of improvement or enhancement to achieve organizational excellence.

As development is a progressive series of change in an orderly way, my recommendations on

Effectiveness of Recruitment & Selection in BHART SANCHAR NIGAM LTD. after
deep analysis ,are as follows:

• Job description at entry level is required in order to have role clarity.

• Employees should be given justified salary packages, i.e. best in industry, at entry
level.
• The HR working is both manual, like service book maintenance, and computerized
(Online) of the employee. HRMS of BSNL is a online service and is very advanced.
Any employee of BSNL can see their entire HR information online, like their pay,
leave records, family members names & nominations, photographs and all type of
records useful for employee. They can also update bio-data online and send it to
System Administrator of HRMS. In Varanasi, DGM (Admin & HR) is the system
administrator of HRMS.
• The documentation at entry level is very complicated, it needs to be simplified.
• Requisite changes should be made in recruitment and selection criteria because right
hiring can generate a better and more competent workforce.
• Induction training program or Routine training programs need to be reviewed.
