Abstract

The process of recruitment in organizations entails sourcing the right candidate to fit the human resources requirements. This process comprises of two distinct activities, first soliciting and attracting a pool of interested candidates and then selecting the most suitable candidate from this pool. The latter sub-function of identifying the most appropriate candidate from the pool of available candidates is "selection."The traditional recruitment process generally involves a written test supplemented by an interview. In recent times, the paradigm shift in approach wherein human resources have become the sole repositories of knowledge and hence a critical source of strategic advantage for organizations has resulted in the much innovations to the techniques of selection. organizations have now modified the written tests component by incorporating the benefits of Information Technology and devised various new methods like assessment centers, psychometric testing, graphology analysis, group discussions, and the likes, based on their specific requirements.
