...Strategic Integration of Recruitment Practices and Its Impact on Performance in Indian Enterprises Ashok Chanda, Trapti Bansal & Rupal Chanda Abstract Recruitment and selection is a foundation of human resource management (HRM) practices and its integration to business is critical to achieve organisational strategic goals. However, little research has to date examined strategic integration in this specific human resource (HR) practice, and, therefore, little is known about the level and application of recruitment and selection strategic integration a situation that warrants greater investment due to the economic growth in India in a corresponding expansion of Indian enterprises. Consequently, this study investigates the level at which recruitment and selection practices integrate with business strategies and the relative effects of different levels of such strategic integration on organisational performance in 259 Indian enterprises. The results show the majority of Indian enterprises had a high level of recruitment and selection strategic integration in business strategy formulation and implementation. Moreover, the level of recruitment and selection strategic integration was positively related to growth in market share, profits and sales, employees’ satisfaction, employees’ productivity, and negatively related to employees’ turnover. The implications for HRM practitioners and further research are discussed. Introduction Recruitment and selection is the process of attracting...

...Management Strategy Executive summary Developing and implementing a soundly based strategy for human resource management is a specific area for improvement in the Federation of the Future’s section outlining the Framework for Action. The Federation Human Resources (HR) Strategy was approved in April 2005 and actions to deliver it commenced in June of that year. The support of Department for International Development (DfID) during the years 2007 and 2008 has been fundamental in facilitating the achievement of major elements of the strategy. For the years 2009 and 2010, whilst the key themes of the human resources strategy remain in place, the focus of action shifts to building on achievements to date to cement them into the regular operating practices of the Federation. This is particularly the case in the seven zone offices that sit at the heart of the new operating model. In the context of the 2008 to 2010 strategy, and like the years 2007 and 2008, additional financial resources will be required to support key strategic interventions that will enable the HR department to implement and then operationalise major changes that can be absorbed into the regular operating budget of the department. The Federation can only move forward on HR initiatives by building consensus amongst leaders and the HR community on priorities and approaches. Through a target audience of HR professionals in the Secretariat and National Societies, the programme above will facilitate better recruitment, retention...

...Introduction The main purpose of this essay is to illustrate the importance of the idea of competency as well as seeks to outline its application to staff undertaking international assignments. Lucia & Lepsinger (1999) define competency as “a cluster of related knowledge, skills, and attitudes that affects a major part of one’s job (a role or responsibility), that correlates with performance on the job, that can be measured against well-accepted standards, and that can be improved via training and development.” People or the organization should possess the core competencies to excel in work’s performance and hence be improved in the future to achieve effectiveness in work and organization’s goal (Ibid). Why have the idea of competency become so important? Organizations today identified the key to business success through strategic human resource management (SHRM) (Compton 2009). To achieve SHRM, the strategic plans have to be pro-active and be open to changes in the organization’s external environment such as its competitors and globalization (Ibid). Having a deeper understanding about competencies is critical, as it will allow the organization to focus on achieving organizational goals and responding to the external environment (Lucia & Lepsinger 1999). The Harvard Analytical framework for HRM Figure 1. (Source: Beer et al. 1985) The Harvard analytical framework for HRM in Figure 1 above consists of five main components, which...

...Recruitment, selection, and diversity management in IKEA for its limits of homogeneity in China 1. Introduction In the article “China teaches IKEA limits of homogeneity”, the author presents the problems that IKEA has in its standardization in the Chinese market. The customer group, the pricing, and the culture make IKEA almost impossible to keep its homogeneity in its products and corporate culture. This article is an analysis on the marketing and sales perspective of IKEA. However, the problems in marketing and sales indicate problems in management, especially the human resource management. The limitation of a company to bring its standardized management in a new market indicates its failure in the previous investigation on the reality of the market, which is rooted in the issues of human resource management. If there were local employees or managers warning the reality and difficulties in China, IKEA would be better prepared and make a better marketing strategy. Thus, this paper would analyze the issues of IKEA from the perspectives of recruitment and selection, and diversity management. 2. Recruitment and selection Recruitment and selection is the primary task in human resource management. Recruitment is to seek qualified talents that are suitable for the current needs of the company. It requires a board range of human resource activities under the guidance of the overall business strategy, annual business plan, and the budget of the company (Van Den, et al., 2010)...

...human resource management” (Mello, 2011). Strategic recruitment is vital for any company for meeting their goals and mission. Strategic recruitment is part of the strategies human resource plan; the company must know what the company needs and fill those needs. The decisions made directly impacts the success of the company. The following analysis of Heidrick & Struggles Inc. will show what problems they faced as demographics changed along with technology. The job market is very competitive and acquiring and retaining quality talent is essential to a company’s success. Poor decisions can have negative affects with high turnover that impacts employee morale and a company can lose its competitive edge (Richardson). Heidrick & Struggles an executive search firm was established in 1953 by Garner Heidrick and John Struggle. As the company grew by 1957 were serving clients all over the U.S. and in 1968 they went international opening an office in London. By 1980 they had 11 offices located the U.S. and Europe. Heidrick’s search consultants did not see the company as a global firm; it was more of a franchise. They had no specialization and were considered generalists. They had never met as a single group and had only 2 female consultants. In 1999 the Heidrick &Struggles International merged with Heidrick & Struggles, Inc. and went public listing it shares on the NASDAQ exchange as Heidrick & Struggles International, Inc.

However; the effects of such operations do not end up with international markets and consumer products. In fact, Managers today are faced with several breath taking challenges of leading a true global workforce. As we can remember the good old days when we can find staff by advertising in the local newspaper, and graduates and apprentices were plentiful and grateful for a job. Due to the scaled- back university courses/intakes and apprenticeship schemes, the aging population and the resources have left Australia desperately short of qualified people, and thus, now HR managers are often required to think globally to fill out positions. Recruiting efficient staff in an international context is the process of identifying and attracting potential candidates outside the country and initiate the process of evaluating them for future employment. Once candidates are identified, organisations can begin their selection process. This process includes: collecting, measuring, evaluating information...

...plan for the recruitment and selection in hiring of personnel through assessment of all facets of expatriate issues. This would include the recruitment, selection and take into the account of cultural suitability and adjustment that will automatically occur when an expatriate comes to work from another country. Recruitment and selection would be pivotal in creating Citibank as a global presence in Australia. Recruitment is defined as searching for and obtaining potential job candidates in sufficient numbers and quality so that the organization can select the most appropriate people to fill its job needs. Whereas, selection is the process of gathering information for the purposes of evaluating and deciding who should be employed in particular jobs. (Dowling, Festing & Engle, Sr., 2009) It is important to note that recruitment and selection are discrete processes and both processes need to operate effectively if the firm is effectively to manage its staffing process. For example, a firm may have an excellent selection system for evaluating candidates but if there are insufficient candidates to evaluate then this selection system is less than effective. Both processes must operate effectively for optimal staffing decisions to be made. (Dowling, Festing & Engle, Sr., 2009) Hiring people and deploying them to a position where they will perform effectively is a goal of most organizations. One of the major differences between domestic and international staffing is that...
