L1: KNOW HOW HUMAN RESOURCES ARE MANAGED
Task 1: Recruitment Documentation Used In Starbucks
RECRUITMENT AND HIRING:
The term “Recruitment” means hiring and induction of people
for the smooth and effective working of the organization in a
going-concern manner during the long-term. Recruitment
process involves a lot of legal and documented framework which
is mandatory for the selection on merit. The qualified and
experienced people can be found only if the selection is done on
merit then right people at the right time with the right knowledge
about the job and at the right place is ensured which is the most
difficult task in hiring of employees. Hiring is not the piece of cake
as it involved a lot of precautions and legal matters but if the
matter of hiring in public sector is involved then all the legal
framework can be bypassed and few steps may be followed
which are necessary to avoid any kind of delay in induction.
The recruitment documentation which shows the number of personal characteristics and skills
which will enable them to carry out their role. The roles which are mandatory for the
performance comprises of friendliness, attention to detail, a commitment to providing
customer service and an ability to work in a fast-paced environment so that the customer
dealing should be carried out more effectively and timely.
The first stage of recruitment should be a decision regarding a role or person specifications in
order to establish the skills and attributes necessary for the role. Successful recruitment,
selection and retention must be aligned in order to achieve the strategic objectives set by the
firm. Precarious measure must be taken to establish the care and consideration to the most
suitable recruitment and selection methods in order to ensure that they should attract the best
potential candidates and organizational loyalty will retain them.
RECRUITMENT REQUIREMENTS:
The requirements which are mentioned as the documents which are mandatory in the
recruitment process includes;
a.
QUALIFICATIONS / EDUCATION / TRAINING:
Recruitment documents which are prerequisite for the application approval for the relevant
post with the relevant qualification, education and training. This is the most important phase of
the recruitment process because these documents enable the organization to select the most
appropriate contestant for the post and then short-listing of candidates is successfully done.
b.
EXPERIENCE:
Experience certificates show the years of experience and
field of specialization in which the list of successful
candidates who qualify in accordance with the relevant
number of years in experience as well as the area of
specialization in which the perfect candidates list is capable
of doing work with excellence and without the prior need of
training and development. This helps the organization to
reduce the cost which will be involved in the training and
development of the organization.
c.
KNOWLEDGE:
Knowledge also matters a lot in the recruitment process.
Knowledge is something what cannot be snatched, theft and
taken by coercion or without your prior permission.
Knowledge is the only thing that makes you diversify and it
makes you different than other if the comparison is done for
any work which is supposed to be done with perfection then
knowledge and professional experience prior to that work is
always preferred.
d. SKILLS AND COMPETENCIES
Skills is another benchmark which is judged and marked for
the performance of specific or normal job. Skill makes the
perfect candidate more appropriate to perform the task.
When any task which is specially required on the basis of
certain skill, then the person who has that relevant skill is
always preferred. For example, if the company requires to
perform the task of conversion of data collected in response
of some research then the person who knows and have skill
of transforming the collected data into the meaningful way in
order to make it useful for decision making process.
Competency means the perfection in the work which is assigned. Noone can achieve
competency without concentration and determination. So, whenever organization make a
decision regarding the hiring of person, competencies are also the core concentration in the
profile of the potential employee. So, short-listing process also carry this search while
comparing different profiles in the hiring process which makes the hiring process more lengthy
and best in approach.
e
PERSONAL ATTRIBUTES
Another core requirement of the recruitment may be the personal attributes like strong personal
relations, height, hobbies, fitness, sports, etc. Personal attributes are mostly judged in the
interview process but are evaluated sometimes at the start of recruitment process through filing
of form for the job application.
Task 2: IMPORTANCE OF EMPLOYABILITY , AND PERSONAL SKILLS IN RETENTION AND RECRUITMENT
EMPLOYABILITY
Employability is the personality trait of a person which enables him or her to hire a person or to take a
desired work from a person without making him annoyed and with minimum employment of resources
and in minimum possible time (it can be very less than the expected time i.e. 2 year syllabus should be
finished in 1 month or 15 days or in 3 hours.). This is the special quality of the person who is in a
position to recruit the person on permanent basis or hire a person on daily wages or temporary basis.
Employability also comprises of understanding of psychological patterns and behaviors of the people
because the most unpredictable in the entire nature is human being. Human being has a free will and
he or she does whatever the moods are. So, if we are being judgmental about the person and that
person is totally opposite in real life which is his personality and our judgement was totally wrong then
wrong decisions or perceptions along with the negative behavior towards that person becomes
natural and documented thing. On the basis of that perception, wrong Annual Confidential Report
(ACR) is written which makes the future of a very bright person in actual very bad or sometimes stuck
the most talented and bright person of the organization. So, Actual capital of the organization is the
Human Capital. Human capital means the most talented, trained and skilled person of the
organization whose intellect is extraordinary and that person can resolve almost every issue of his
field as well as other fields in the office environment with minimum use of internal resources and
maximum use of external resources.
PERSONAL SKILLS
Personal skills are the most important personality trait of the potential employee or even the existing
employee. A human being can develop any personality skill with the help of guidance in the right
direction, with the right method and technique, by the right person at the right time and place. So,
whatever personality skill needs to develop needs hard work and dedication towards the goal set for
achievement. One must be so determined to achieve the desired goal that he or her should not think
on any other source or any other work or any other occasion. Luck does not mean to be dead sure but
luck can be changed by God with the help of donation and praising the God with the praising of his
creature at any cost. Well that is the spiritual benefit and a complete code and system. While pursuing
for the professional career in an organization, It is very important to have personal skills set which is
prerequisite for the success in one job. If that skill set is gone missing and you have only one person
whom you know him or her, then that person will be selected for sure.
Every job is advertised with the requirement of specific or general personal skill set and that skill set is
determined exactly in accordance to the type of work which will be performed in that job. Then this
makes it easy to determine whether which personal skills will be required for which position and which
personal skill is required to which post. So, no job advertisement or recruitment process can be fulfilled
in any way pass.
