Case Summary:
Mr. Belal Ahmed the Managing Director of Ammar Textiles hired Mr. Muhammad Younas as
Manager Administration and Personnel to organizing its personnel functions such as reward
system, performance management and maintaining labor management relationship systems.
However Mr. Younas was more inclined towards maintaining labor management relationships
and has no focus on reward and performance appraisals. Despite constant reminders from Mr.
Belal the manager was not able to implement and introduce effective performance systems in
the organization. This led to his resignation from the organization and Ammar textiles is on the
look for a new HR manager.

Questions:
Q: Would you recommend Mr. Ammar to use internal recruiting? Why or why not?
A: We will not recommend internal hiring for the position of Personnel Manager, because there
are no employees who possess the required skill set that can be utilized for the position. In my
opinion they need a personnel manager who has prior experience in implementing HR
procedures and processes like performance reward system, appraisal systems effectively.
Ammar Textiles should go for an external recruiting and find a candidate suitable for the
position; this will also give them a larger pool for selection and better chance for hiring the right
employee.
Q: What options for external recruitment can be used? Justify your choices.
A: There can be various efficient options that can be used for external recruitment, they are as
follows
a) Head Hunting:
Headhunting is a direct and personalized approach that is made to the individual with a
high degree of discretion where particular expertise is sought. In this case it will help
them find a person who has the experience and expertise to introduce and revamp the
HR procedures. It will save the company time and pin point them to the right candidate.
The major aim is to find a person with enough experience in the field of HR and this can
be done nest by head hunting.
b) Online Advertisement
An advertisement can be posted online to reach the masses and get the word out there,
online advertisement on recruitment sites like Rozee.pk and LinkedIn will be beneficial
for Ammar textiles as many candidates visit these sites looking for jobs and they can be
reached through these online advertisements. These websites also has many filters
which can narrow down the short listing process to only relevant candidates.
c) Newspaper Advertisement
Local newspapers will find local candidates, with the advantages that they already know
the area, have a place to live and won't be distracted by having to assimilate their
families, enroll children in school and find their way around. This is a great way to find
local candidates who will be settled and motivated to lend their expertise to the
organization.
