Introduction

External recruiting is required to fill diverse jobs inside the firm, as redeploying current workforce through job
restructuring may not be sufficient. Human Resource Planning is succeeded by an external recruiting procedure. We can
understand the extent of external recruiting after adjusting internal personnel using HRP.
Recruitment, selection, induction, and placement are critical strategies for collecting and deploying human resources in a
company. While recruiting includes recruiting properly trained employees, selection helps in the choice of the right
individual for the right position. Induction and placement is the process of putting men in the correct positions. This
chapter focuses on these four important organizational activities
The traditional approach to personnel management was to guarantee that firms' regular human resource maintenance
functions were met. However, recent radical changes in human resource management have generated new areas for people
management by considering human resources as other significant resources (physical and financial) of an organization.
Human resources are the individuals who work for the organization.
Because of the rising importance of human resources, it is increasingly vital for all firms to maintain people while also
recruiting and selecting the greatest potential talents in the country.

suitable candidates for your position. This is a process that involves comparing resumes, cover letters and application forms
to the job description and person specifications to find a match.
The screening of candidates must be a particularly quick and efficient process.
The task becomes more complicated when the applications arrive in mass. In recruiting, timing is crucial, so you need to be
able to recruit a candidate within the given timeframe.
Pre-screening thus consists of filtering out candidates who do not meet the basic criteria. Possible basic criteria may
include a complete application, a degree, relevant keywords in the cover letter and CV, or knowledge of a given language.
There are many different ways to do such preliminary screening. Some organisations conduct short tests for all the
applications, while the best method may be the checking of application blank. Each organisation before going for the
selection process develops their own standards or potential attributes for the prospective candidates. This helps them also to
define the rejection standards·

organizations. it is a document that allows the
organization to have more detailed information
