People are the greatest assets of any organization and it
begins with recruitment and selection of the personnel.
Any organization which gives a fair share of attention
to the recruitment and selection of its people is bound to get
good returns. Recruitment and selection should be viewed in
the wider context of the organization’s future.
Taking a short-term and narrow view of recruitment and
selection may serve the purpose of filling a vacancy, but it may
not help the organization to develop and prosper. Therefore,
an important strategic issue to consider is how the recruitment
and selection activities can contribute to long-term business
goals.
Candidate specification is an important step of the selection
process. Candidate specification means listing the essential
attributes that are required like an educational qualification,age, marital status, a level of competency, etc.Recruitment is the process of identifying and attracting potential candidates from outside
organization for evaluating them for employment. Once the candidates are identified, an organization
can begin the selection process. Organizations use these processes to increase the likelihood of hiring
individuals who possess the right skills and abilities to be successful at their jobs.
Retail distribution system is totally customer-oriented. The success of any retail distribution is
directly related to the quality of manpower which is directly handling the customer. Prospective
candidates should have problem solving ability, ability to take decisions, and should be creative. They
should also have good analytical skills.
