CHAPTER 02
2.2 methodology
I used both written and non-written sources to prepare this project report. I used
documents, Internet, and videos as the written documents for get the information about
the organization and conducted interviews too.
The chief executive officer and the staff of the human resources management staff
were there to support me.
The human resource planning is the process of finding the right number of people for
the right kind of a job, at a right time and the right place, by forecasting the
organization’s demand for and supply of human resources in the near future.
As a leading Insfra Technologies (pvt) Ltd Company maintain a good process for
human resource planning. As a first step need to forecast the future demand for that
this factory prepare the employee budget year by year or according to their necessary,
they prepare the employee budget for short time periods.
4
They can able to identify how many software developers, software engineers,
technician need to the sections through employee budget analysis. They are identifying
through this budget analysis how many employees are in arrears, how many
employees company wants to fulfill their shortages, how many attract to the company
through call the interviews, advertisements. After that they take necessary measures to
mitigate their employee shortages. Considering the future demand main affecting
factor is normally some of employees resign the company because of various kind of
reasons here personal matters of their employees are severely affected, such as
marriage problems, family issues, higher education, etc. Since it is usually done to the
company, they always prepare it through pre-defined analysis
Furthermore, staff members’ recruitment procedure is also totally deferent from flow
members’ recruitment procedure. To recruit staff member director approval is needed
and to recruit the floor member it’s not needed.
2. Recruitment
Recruitment is the process of finding and attracting suitably qualified people to apply
for employment. Recruitment is the set of activities an enterprise uses to attract job
candidates who have the abilities and attitudes needed to help the enterprise achieve its
objects. It is the process of generating a pool of qualified applicants for organizational
jobs (Mathis and Jackson, 1998). Recruitment results in creation of a pool of job seeks
from which persons are selected.
Importance of recruitment

qualified)
Low cost.
To reduce the applicants’ possibility of leaving the organization.

3.Selection.
Selection is the process of making the choice of the most appropriate person from the
pool of applicants recruited to fill the relevant job vacancy. Determining applicants
who have the highest capability to produce the desired job performance occurs in
selection. It involves the use of one or more methods to assess candidates in order to
make a decision as to their suitability to perform duties and responsibilities of the job
successfully.
Selection methods

This is the main method of selecting an employee. But this interview is not
much more complex one. When employee come to the company, she/he have
to face very friendly discussion with interview board.
Employment Test
Medical test come first in here. Every employee has to face medical test
and mainly consider about physical availability of employee. If any
employee rejects from medical test will not be selected.

In Insfra Technologies (pvt) Ltd Company there is a formal process for recruitment. In
the company mainly employees are consisting with staff members and It field

hard other sections will work automatically is the reason for that.
9
So, recruitment process also mainly focuses on It field technician, but staff members
also have different type of recruitment process in the company. Here we discuss on It
field technician’s recruitment process.
01 Job Posting
Company put posters in public places (Canteen, Main gate) in the company. It
helps to make pool of applicants.
I. When a post becomes vacant or a new post arises, the Recruiting Manager
will, prior to seeking approval from the Workforce Review Group, consider
the following:
• Exit interview feedback where provided
• Whether the post is still required
• The roles and responsibilities and whether these have changed
• Whether these responsibilities still need to be undertaken by the
same group/grade of staff
• The opportunities for the post to be redesigned
• Duration of role e.g. permanent, fixed term, temporary
10
• Whether previous applicants are suitable for the post (where the
post has been advertised/interviewed in the last 6 months)
II. All vacancies must be approved prior to being advertised and it is the
responsibility of the Recruiting Manager to obtain all required signatories
on the Vacancy Approval Form before submitting to the Workforce
Review group for approval see Appendix. All documentation should be
completed electronically.
III. No recruitment will be undertaken by the HR department until approval has
been given by the Workforce Review Group or, in the case of short term
temporary posts, the required documentation has been received.
IV. The Recruiting Manager will be responsible for providing an updated:
• Job description,
• Person specification
• Draft Job advert
These documents are required prior to the vacancy being taken to the
Workforce Review group.
V. All employment criteria should be reviewed by the Recruiting Manager to
ensure they are relevant to the post and that no individual or group is
unintentionally disadvantaged by them, (e.g., requirements for a particular
type or level of qualification should be justified and equivalents, gained
under a different education system, or earlier forms of the qualification,
must be considered. Not to do so could indirectly discriminate against, for
instance, older candidates, or those of a different ethnic origin.)
02 Skills Inventories
When employee interring to the company, they note down and identify what
are the skills of employees and they maintain it regularly. Base on those
inventories they make pool of applicants.
03 Promoting Employees
Company use present employees for recruitment process. They tell their
employees to introduce new employees to the organization. If he/she introduce
a new employee to the organization, company will pay or give other material
benefits for founder.
11
External recruitment sources
01 Advertisement
In here they use announcements, leaflets and letters. Mainly leaflets focus on
young crowd in society. They divide them in crowded town, fair and places.
Announcement and awareness programs also target for recruitment. While
announcing, team of other members go to the door to door for make a pool. As
company makes attractive letters for students, graduates or other unemployment
people to attract to the company.
I. The Recruiting Manager will draft the advertisement and submit it to the
Recruitment Team with the completed Vacancy Approval Form. The advert will
be reviewed in conjunction with the HR Manager or Senior HR Advisor and
amended as appropriate, for example, to ensure that there is no unintentional
discrimination. The Recruiting Manager will be advised of the recruitment media,
the date that the post is being advertised and the closing date. Where appropriate,
the Communications department may be involved in designing adverts.
II. They will also be advertised on the Board’s intranet and/or external website.
III. Staff on their Redeployment Register will be considered prior to a post being
advertised.
12
02 External Job Posting
For this activity human resource manager use banners and cutout campaigns.
Campaigns implementing in very scientific methodology and never cover one
route twice. Daily they done this activity.
This company also participate Job / Career Fairs and gathering applicants.
Provincial secretarial office is the base source of them and participate their
job fairs and always follow unemployment reports in A/G office. Students who
follow the NAITA course also focus them in recruitment.
So, this process helps to determine present and future requirement of the
organization and good quality people to the organization.
3.1.2 Selection
Selection is the process of making the choice of the most appropriate person from the
pool of applicants recruited to fill the relevant job vacancy.

This is the main method of selecting an employee. But this interview is not
much more complex one. When employee come to the company, she/he

15
necessary to adjust the interview arrangements in order to accommodate these.
Any concerns should be discussed with an HR Manager.
The Recruitment Team will write formally to short listed candidates, inviting
them to interview. On occasion and where it has been agreed in advance with
candidates, communication may take place by telephone or email. Candidates
will be advised of the opportunity to seek an alternative date or time for the
interview, although in some circumstances it will not be possible to provide
alternative dates.
Unsuccessful applicant details will be held for 12 months and then destroyed
by shredding.
Interview process
I. Verifying identity
It is vital that the identity of all candidates is reliably verified before
they are engaged in work. The recruitment team will inform all short-
listed candidates of the requirement to bring photographic ID with them
when they attend for interview. This may be a:
• Valid national identity card
• valid passport
• Driving License
II. The Chair of the Interview Panel will be responsible for checking the
identity documents of all candidates attending for interview and
indicating that this has been done on the Candidate Assessment
Documentation.
III. Following a decision about the successful candidate the Recruitment
Team will make further identity checks. These checks are designed to
• Determine that the identity is genuine and relates to a real
person
• Establish that the individual owns and is rightfully using that
identity.
• At this point individuals will need to provide either of these
two combinations:
16
• Two forms of photographic personal identification and one
document confirming their address
• One form of photographic personal identification and two
documents confirming their address.
IV. If an individual seems genuinely unable to provide any acceptable
photographic personal identification, then each of the following should
be requested:
• Two forms of non-photographic personal identification
• Two documents confirming their address and
• A passport-sized photograph
V. All documents must be from a different source. In order to prove the
identity of the individual photographs must be endorsed by someone
who works in (or is retired from) a recognized profession or be a person
of good standing in their community.
VI. They cannot be closely related to or involved with the person applying,
they must have known the person concerned for at least two years and
they must be in a position to be able to identify them. They should
write on the back of the photograph “I certify that this is a true likeness
of (title and full name)” and add their signature and the date. They
should also provide a separate signed statement confirming that they
have known the individual for more than two years and that the
individual is who they claim to be. This must contain their name,
address and telephone number. It is good practice to contact the
signatory to authenticate the details of the statement.
VII. The recruitment team will check that both signatures match and should
contact the signatory to authenticate the details of the statement.
17
All members of the selection panel should have been formally trained in
effective recruitment and selection methods and will be aware of the
requirement to be fully inclusive.
Each panel member will be provided, at least two days in advance of the
interviews, with copies of the short listed candidates’
• Application forms
• Job description
• Person specification
• Candidate Assessment Form
• Interview Questions Record Sheet
Panel members should meet prior to the interviews taking place in order to
discuss the process and agree on questions to be asked. It is considered to
be best practice to use a structured interview approach with specific, agreed
questions to be asked of all candidates.
If a short-listed candidate is personally known to a member of the
interviewing panel and there may be a conflict of interest (eg. a relative, the
interviewer may not take part in the interview of that candidate and a
substitute panel member introduced.)
The use of additional assessment methods, (e.g. presentation, typing test,
etc.) should be arranged to effectively coincide with the interview itself,
both in venue and time allowed. The use of additional assessment methods
must be made known to the short listed candidate when invited to
interview. Advice may be sought from the HR Manager with regard to the
suitability of selection methods, as it is important that these are fair, do not
unintentionally discriminate against particular individuals or groups and are
relevant to the post.
Notes of the interview should be kept by all panel members on the
Interview Questions Record Sheet. The use of structured questions does not
limit the right of each panel member to probe further when an answer is
incomplete or leads to another related question.
It is considered best practice to review each candidate at the conclusion of
their individual interview rather than at the end of the interview process.
Interviews should therefore be timed to allow for this to occur between
candidates.
18
At the end of the interview the Chair of the interview panel will inform all
candidates of the next step in the appointments process following the
conclusion of the interviews
Where nationally defined guidance for recruitment and selection exists for
certain posts, e.g., consultant appointments, that guidance will be strictly
adhered to in preference to any variance within this policy.
Pre-employment checks
I. Offers of employment
The Recruitment Team is responsible for issuing offers of employment
which are conditional until medical clearance is confirmed and
satisfactory references covering at least three years of previous
employment/training history are received. The Occupational Health
19
Pre-Employment Screening Policy and Procedure can be accessed on
Pulse.
Verification of professional registration and evidence of
professional/educational qualifications is also required and must be
confirmed once an offer of employment has been issued.
II. Should a successful candidate wish to give notice to their current
employer before all recruitment checks are complete, it must be made
clear to the individual that, should any checks prove unsatisfactory and
the offer of employment is withdrawn, their existing employer may not
agree to rescind the notice given.
III. The Board has a standard contract of employment that cannot be
amended. Where special arrangements have been agreed with the
successful candidate, these will be reflected in the accompanying offer
letter, which the individual should be asked to sign as acceptance.
Unsuccessful Applicants
I. Where unsuccessful candidates request feedback on the selection
process, this should be given verbally, by the Recruiting Manager;
using an objective approach and focusing on the candidate’s perceived
development needs. Information about other candidates must not be
divulged. If a candidate requests feedback in writing, the response from
the Recruiting Manager must be approved by the Human Resources
Manager.
II. It is vitally important that existing employees, who have been
unsuccessful in an application for another post with the Board, at either
short listing or interview stage; remain motivated to fulfill their current
roles and extra care should be taken in explaining their current
shortfalls and how these may be addressed.
03 Employment Test
Medical test come first in here. Every employee has to face medical
test and mainly consider about physical availability of employee. If
any employee rejects from medical test will not be selected.
20
04 Background Investigation
Assessing employment, finance, character and such other factors
considering before employer select to the company.
