SUGGESTIONS
After concluding the study of the companies recruitment policy, interaction with some of the
recruitment manager, company associates and based on the responses received from the
associates the following suggests are made to the company for further improvement of the
policy.
1. The organization should not majorly Clear job description is given to the candidates at
the time of interview itself, to avoid disappointment after joining.
2. The candidate should be informed in time whether they have been selected or not. There
should not be any delay in informing the candidate.
3. There should be reliability on external sources.
4. Recruitment feedback should be taken by the candidates to improve the recruitment
process.
5. The employees should be called for the interview only after checking their educational
qualifications and job experience in a proper way so as to save the time and cost involved
in the recruitment process.
6. Depend on the application bank as the major source for the details of the candidate for
recruitment purpose. It should also consider other sources which could provide them
better options.
7. Follow up to be done to the newly engaged employees to ensure that they have settled in
and to check on how well they are doing. If they have any problems it is better to identify
them at an early stage rather than allowing them to fester.
8. Internal job posting to be preferred to reduce cost of recruitment.
