Recruitment Agencies in India – The Ideal process of recruitment

Finding the right recruitment agency from India can be a daunting task, whether you are looking for an entry-level worker, a manager, or an executive staff, you must need to ensure that the recruitment agency you are placing your trust upon can deliver upto your expectations. India having an enormous manpower potential there are a lot of recruitment agencies that have popped up in every nook and corner to satisfy the insatiable demand of Indian manpower. Hence, it is very important for business owners and clients to ensure that they are able to scout for the right agency from India that can handle their manpower requirements.

Apart from being authorized by Government of India, we highlight the recruitment process that should be followed by a professional recruitment agency to ensure that it does justice to the work it is meant to do:

1. Client Need and Requirements Analysis:

This is the most important and unfortunately the most neglected part in most of the recruitment agencies around the world.  A client sometimes is concerned with the end results and hence his/her requirement might be different from the needs of the organization. Therefore, as a professional recruitment consultant it is very important to now only “listen to clients requirements” but also understand the underlying needs to make sure that requirements are met. This understanding comes from Years of experience and through knowledge of the clients business to enable a consultant to differentiate between the needs and the requirements of clients.

2. Documentation of your understanding about the Analysis:

Documentation is a vital part to enable a proper understanding between the client and the consultant. It is important that the client and the consultant are on the same page before the research for the right talent is initiated. One should ensure that this documentation, defines the client requirements and the demands of the specific project as well as the background of the company and the country so that one understands the cultural background of the job.  This ensures that you only get the best talent but also the right talent according to the situation.

3. Scouting and Researching the Right Talent:

A professional recruitment agency integrates insightful knowledge with technology to ensure a meaningful and objective research to find the right talent. Apart from this, competitor analysis and marketplace understanding is also critical in the hiring needs so that you are one step ahead of the competition.

4. Recognition and Assessment of the Talent:

For the recognition and assessment of the right talent a professional recruitment agency must have professional consultants that can recognize the right talent according to your industry needs. Hence, knowledge about a client business is of imperative importance while recognizing the right talent. Further, India being a diverse country its important for a professional recruitment agency to understand the role of geographical and culture plays in the recruitment process. For example, candidates from Punjab, Himachal Pradesh are more likely to join a company in Canada and Europe compared to Middle East.

5. Presenting and knowledge transfer about the Candidate:

After the completion of recognition and assessment of the talent, a professional recruitment agency provides a thorough knowledge transfer about the shortlisted candidates including the technical and function proficiencies of the candidates according to the understanding of the requirement analysis.  Further, it is important to mention inter personal skills of the candidates and the ability to work in a team environment.

6. Due Diligence of the Candidates:

After the knowledge transfer and shortlisted candidates, professional recruitment consultants must do a thorough reference check of the shortlisted candidates to ensure your trust while recruiting and the seriousness of working of a recruitment agency. A professional recruitment agency should not work on short term sales objectives but should strive to build long term business relationship that has the trust and the acceptance to last it through.

Placements and Recruitments are one of the biggest factors on which the people stress on before taking admission in any college of the world. The people tend to think in terms of Return on Investment (ROI) factor when considering any college for admission. This trend is very common in a number of MBA and other post graduation colleges where the fees are exceptionally higher.

Recruitment as said before plays an important role in the service industry. The companies ensure that they get the right talent at the right time and would take any number of measures to retain it. The recruitments can be either off campus or on campus. The on campus placements involve the companies visiting various colleges across the country for the recruitment. The college must have good relationships with the HR department of the company so as to ensure the continuous placements. Another means through which the recruitments are done is through the Off Campus Placements. In this the companies doesn’t visit any specific campus for recruitment but instead it makes its process of recruitment open to all initially so that everyone gets a fair chance to participate in the placement activities.

All the government departments and PSUs have the off campus mode of selection and recruitment of the candidates. This ensures that the PSUs don’t favor only those colleges which are funded by state and central governments. There are advertisements that are released inviting participants followed by a test which would screen out most of the applicants. This is followed by a round of interviews leading to the final selection of the candidates.

The Banking sector has also become much more refined and organized in which the people can apply for the vacancies. The IBPS (Indian Banking Personnel Selection) test is organized for the employment in 19 nationalized banks in the country.

Taking in view of the current economic scenario, the hiring sentiments of all the private sector companies has been low. The IT giants like Infosys and TCS announcing their weak and dismal results for the 4th and 1st quarters of 2011 and 2012 respectively, says the state of economy and tighter job conditions. Moreover, the credit rating agencies such as S&P and Moody’s have further downgraded the economy which shows the slow state of economy. The IIP figures and manufacturing output rates are also out which shows that the recession is indeed coming to India especially in Automobile, Real Estate, Banking and other core major sectors of India.

Electrical Engineers: Job Description

Electrical engineers specialize in electrical systems and their components and are largely responsible for generation, transmission or distribution of electric supply.  As an electrical engineer, one might also be required to design equipment that will aid manufacturing, transportation, construction and other such industries. This makes it a pre-requisite for electrical engineers to have project management skills.

Electrical engineers are usually a part of larger teams that are aiming to design and develop or improve a product or a service. Other team members are usually from other disciplines and it is necessary that the engineer grasps their suggestions and inculcates the solutions to issues in the product design. Addressing issues across different disciplines requires the ability to multitask and take decisions.  Also, the product under development must be safe, reliable and as economical as possible. Usually, post the design stage, the engineer is also required to assist in manufacture, testing and then training employees to use the product.

An electrical engineer can work across different areas of the industry such as manufacturing, power generation and distribution, instrumentation, power electronics, control engineering etc.  in sectors such as transportation, telecommunication and even defence. Irrespective of the nature of the industry, the basic job description of the electrical engineer remains the same. S/He must be technically competent to design the client desires, be responsible for the project from design to completion, be able to suggest and implement measures of cost reduction, co-ordinate meetings of designers and clients, design and conduct tests to check the functioning of the product, interpret test data, make required modifications to the product and test it again, if required.  Once, the system is in place, the electrical engineer also maintains and services the equipment and monitors it for further improvements of the product.

As a result of the competition in the recruitment industry, a Bachelor’s degree is usually not the only criterion for recruiting an electrical engineer. Usually, companies offering good salaries, expect the candidate to have 5-10 years of working experience in the field along with people and project skills. Certain recruiters even prefer candidates who have some experience in programming and can write basic code in Perl, Python and other such programming languages.  It never hurts to learn to a programming language in this time and age. Electrical engineers are a global requirement and for the right candidate the opportunities are unlimited.
