It is in particular that we are acknowledging our sincere feeling towards our mentor who
graciously gave us their time and expertise.
They have provided us with the valuable guidance, sustained efforts and friendly approach. It
would have been difficult to achieve the results in such a short span of time without their help.
We deem it our duty to record our gratitude towards the Project upervisor Ms. Roshni Tijoriwala
who devoted her precious time to interact, guide and gave us the right approach to accomplish
the task and also helped us to enhance our knowledge and understanding of the project.

It is the process of searching the potential candidate. It is negative in nature in the Indian
context. Dut it is positive in the 5 context.
election process consists of a series of steps, at each stage, facts may come light which may lead to the
rejection of the applicant. It is a series of successive hurdles or barriers which an applicant must cross.
These hurdles or screens are designed to eliminate an un ualified candidate at any point in the
selection process There is no standards selection procedure to be used in all organi#ations or
for all jobs. The complexity of selection procedures increases with the level and responsibility of
the position to be filled. .
Initial screening is done to weed out totally undesirableJun ualified candidates at the outset. It is
essentially a sorting process in which prospective candidates are given the necessary
information about the nature of the job and the organi#ation, at the same time, the necessary
10
information is also elicited from the candidates about their education, skills, experience, salary
expected and the like. It helps to determine whether it is worthwhile for a candidate to fill up the
application form.
,? A li*ation (or+
1pplication form is a traditional and widely used device for collecting information from
candidates. It should provide all the information relevant to selection, where reference for
caste, religion, birthplace, may be avoided as it may be regarded an evidence of discrimination.

Psychological tests are being increasingly used in e mployee selection, where a test may involve some
aspect of an individual<s attitudes, behavior and performance. Tests are useful when the number of

The applicant is asked to mention in his application form, the names and addresses of two or more
persons who know him well. These may be his previous employers, heads of education institutions or
public figures. These people are re uested to provide their frank opinion about the candidate
without
incurring any liability. In government and public sector organi#ations, candidates are generally
re uired to route their applications through their present employers, if any. The opinion of referees
can be useful in judging the future behavior and performance of candidate, but is not
advisable to
rely exclusively on the referees because they are generally biased in favor of the candidate.

It would seem that there is no corporate human resources policy that has not had its share of controversies
for being biased. With an increasing number of ualitative factors that affect employees at the workplace, the
performance appraisal process to make it as fair as possible has been the dream of every @2 manager.
1nd now ualitative factors are not just at play in the services sector, but also in manufacturing.
With cubicles giving way to open offices, the top;down approach to employee performance
appraisal is also on its way out.
8ne company that has set itself on course to further demonstrating and opening up its
employee evaluation process is car market leader !aruti 5dyog.
The company has introduced a uni ue (* ;degree feedback system, starting with its senior leadership.
The new system has been co;developed with 9rnst 0 Goung and has been put in place recently.
5nder the (* ;degree feedback system, the employee is rated not just by his superiors, but
also by his peers and subordinates.
We are starting the (* ;degree feedback process with employees in the top management such
as chief general managers and general managers, whose performance will now be assessed
based on feedback from their peers and junior management employees within the same
department. Till last year, their performance was being appraised only by the 'irectors and the !
anaging 'irector, says !arutiQs Ehief 6eneral !anager >@2?, !r .G. iddi ui.
9rnst 0 Goung, in consultation with !aruti, has listed a set of leadership competencies that are
expected in a general manager. Dased on that, it has prepared a uestionnaire to which peers
and subordinates can respond online.
1lthough acknowledged as an effective tool for leadership development in the West, Indian
companies have been shy of introducing such a feedback system for fear of disturbing
traditional hierarchical structures.
@2 consultants feel that the critical issues in implementing such a system include assuring respondents that
their feedback will remain confidential and convincing the person receiving the feedback that this is a
development tool and not an appraisal tool. !aruti has handled this by getting 90G and other consultants to
make detailed presentations to the senior management personnel before the process got under way. The
18
company has a committee of general managers, called @uman 2esource Inter 'ivisional
Eommittee >@2I'E?, which is consulted on all major @2 issues.
The initiative has been unveiled with an e;mail by !arutiQs !anaging 'irector, !r "agdish
Hhattar, asking people to support the online uestionnaire process. The (* ;degree feedback
system will also include a self;appraisal by the general manager. 1t the end of the process,
he can compare his self; appraisal with the assessment of his subordinates and peers.
8ne of the benefits that !aruti is hoping to get out of the (* ;degree feedback process is the sense of
empowerment and importance felt by subordinates, when they are asked to offer their feedback about
