What is Recruitment?
Recruitment is a process of searching the candidates for employment and stimulating them to apply for
jobs in the organization. It is the activity that links the Client and the Candidates (job seekers).
Recruitment is thus a process of attracting, selecting and placing the right candidate for the right job at
the given time and economy.

Evolution of Recruitment – The People Industry
It is highly admiring that a process has been successfully transforming for several decades and
will continue to do so. While researching about recruitment for more than a decade, it was
discovered that there is strong belief about recruitment being existent since the day people
formed / gathered in groups to perform any task – we may date this back to the stone-age or
time of emperors or the industrial revolutions or pre-post World Wars to today.
This as an evolution of task to a process and to an industry, may be a Transformation.

The Old – Age (Days of Emperors)
When a baby was born, he / she was believed to be the soldier and was taught the arts of war to
join the Army. This was said to be ‘Self Recruitment’. Later, there were protests against the
emperors for farms / fields and for the right to sell the goods directly to the public for a better
price. As they progressed, entrepreneurs started recruiting the labour.

Industrial Revolutions (1760 – 1840) With the rapid increase of industries across nations was the need for more manpower. But, the working conditions
were uncertain like - child labour, less wages, poor-living conditions and long working hours. Workers started
forming unions to protest against this which led to first & second revolutions resulting in urbanization, decreased
child labour, better wage and benefits. This encouraged people to migrate to urban cities. Agencies played a major
role planning and recruiting the manpower. This had led many small & mid-sized agencies to scale-up and look at
recruitment as the future. Agencies advertised jobs through bulletin boards, newspapers, announcements & flyers
in public places, theatres, town halls, etc.

Pre & post World Wars – World War I / World War II (1914 – 1945 – later)
As the army was in the battle, many positions were open. Companies and the government approached the
agencies to recruit manpower. Agencies began to advertise for members of society who were not called into
military service. Once the war ended, the agencies remained with the purpose of finding the returning war
veterans (with their new skills) a job. Distributing the CV/resume (self-written, hire type-writers, take the help
of agencies) was the new job searching avenue during this time. Agencies had ownership of candidates CVs’
written by them.

Birth of Public Agencies: First proposal to establish a public agency ("Office of Addresses and Encounters") was in 1650 by Henry Robinson
which was rejected by The British Parliament.
Since the beginning of the 20th century, every developed country has created a public recruitment agency as a way
to combat unemployment and help people find work.
In the UK (also ruling the EMEAI), the first agency began in London, through the Labour Bureau (London) Act 1902;
amended in 1909 as Labour Exchanges Act 1909. In the USA, The initial legislation was Wagner-Peyser Act of 1933
which was amended as Workforce Investment Act of 1998.

Birth of Private / for-profit agencies The first private recruitment agency ‘Engineering Agency’ in the USA was formed by ‘Fred
Winslow’ in 1893. It later became part of General Employment Enterprises who also owned
Businessmen's Clearing House (est. 1902). In 1906, Katharine Felton had started a recruitment
agency as a response to the problems brought on by the San Francisco earthquake and fire.

Regulation of the Recruitment Agencies
In 1919, International Labour Organization of US recommended for the abolition of fee-charging agencies.
After 14 years of discussions by the government and agency unions about this convention a bill was
passed in 1933 that resulted in abolition of for-profit agencies if the agencies were not licensed and a fee
scale was not agreed in advance. In most countries, agencies are regulated. Like, UK - Recruitment
agencies Act 1973; Germany - Employee Hiring Law of 1972, etc. By 1970s along with the booming
economy, there was a shift in focus. Recruiters began to work for the client as an increasing amount of
corporate and expanding businesses began to outsource their hiring needs to recruitment agencies.

The Internet age – Today Though Internet/www was launched in 1982, Commercial Internet service providers (ISPs) began to emerge in the late 1980s and early 1990s; fully commercialized in the U.S. by 1995. The first job portal was launched in 1994 by Monster followed by Netstart which is now CareerBuilder.
In 2000s, Web 1.0 and its sequel Web 2.0 have highly influenced recruitment industry by letting recruiters leverage Social Media. The concept of "head-hunting" became ever popular while Mobile based recruitment was popping in the market. With several sources available and the need for niche talent, recruitment/sourcing has transformed from being a task to a Research Function. Agencies started forming exclusive sourcing teams and research functions. Today, web based self-branding has become a necessity that most of the applicants, recruiters and agencies have online presence. Be it LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Wordpress, etc. Few recruiters/candidates own blogs, websites, online portfolios/resumes making web/internet ‘One World Database’ and the trend of ‘Cloud Sourcing’. This new technique includes sourcing the resumes/e-profiles of applicants from web (including but not limited to) search engines, social/professional portals, blogs, e-directories, etc – to keep it short, everywhere!

The Internet age – Today (contd.)
Recruitment has been one of the ancient yet prominent industries. Throughout this evolution, one aspect has remained the same – ‘Change is the trend’. We will see continued transformation in future as well, especially in methodical and technical approach of recruiters. Data analysis/intelligence is expected to be a critical area of focus for the recruiters/agencies. Agencies, recruiters, candidates/applicants have high visibility in the internet world. So, everyone should be unique & innovative to offer a competitive-edge. In addition to your processes, tools, methodologies – your willingness to change for better will help secure the position in the competition.

RECRUITMENT PROCESS
BIG PHARMA JOBS
Methods of Recruitment & Selection
Internal Sourcing : Internal sourcing is the practice of advertising a new or recently vacated position within a business to existing employees. More businesses have come to use internal sourcing as a method to recruit employees upward or laterally within the company because little or no training is needed, and expenses that include advertising for a new employee and running background checks are spared. It also fosters loyalty and parity among team members.
External Sourcing : External sourcing is a method of recruitment that conducts an employee candidate search through external recruitment tools, such as job boards, newspaper advertisements and trade publication announcements. This method favors bringing in job candidates that may or may not have direct experience in your small business' line of work; a candidate within a satellite field may offer a fresh, out-of-the-box perspective to the organization.

Methods of Recruitment & Selection (contd.)
Third-Party Sourcing : Third-party sourcing involves using a placement agency or headhunter to find qualified job candidates. These third-party sources use various techniques and tools to find appropriate job applicants, such as extending offers of improved salary compensation and more flexible benefits packages.
Interviewing/Pre-Selection : All Business suggests that you should schedule interviews when you know you will have uninterrupted time to review the candidate's resume. When having telephonic conversation do not focus solely on the applicant's credentials or experience instead, listen to his / her answers to your questions without interruption and take notes on key points.
Candidate Selection : Using notes of telephonic conversation you have taken, compare each candidate with his resume and look to see if you have missed anything while reading his resume the first time. Make your candidate selection is on the basis of how competently he answered your questions and what questions he asked during the conversation. Candidates who do not ask questions are either shy or uninterested.

5 Key Recruitment Trends For 2015
Increased Focus on Quality of Hire
It’s no secret that hiring the best people is the way to boost organizational success, and 2015 will see
the quality of candidates becoming an increasingly important factor. Global
recruiting leaders have cited quality of hire as a top priority, and as the most valuable metric for
measuring a recruiting team’s performance. Four years ago, referrals were the best channel for
sourcing quality hires. Today, job boards and social professional networks are preferred.
BIG PHARMA JOBS
Increased Emphasis On Using Social Networks
Social recruiting has been big in 2014 and it’s set to be even bigger in 2015. With this in mind,
73% of recruiters plan to invest more in social recruiting. But currently 33% of recruiters don’t spend
anything at all on social recruiting, so there are still big changes that need to be made in this area.
LinkedIn remains the clear champion social site for hires with 79% of recruiters having found a hire
through the site. While 94% of recruiters are using LinkedIn, next in line is Facebook, used by only 66%
of recruiters. Social is now one of the most ripe platforms for finding top candidates, with both quality
and quantity of candidates proven to improve when a social recruiting strategy is put in place.

2015 is going to see a big shift toward closing the gap that exists between active and passive candidates.
Active candidates (those currently seeking employment) have been the main focus of recruiters for some
time, but passive candidates (those who are not looking but are open to speaking to a recruiter) are a key
talent pool that is not to be missed. In fact, 75% of professionals would categorize themselves as “passive,”
yet this potential is greatly untapped, with only 61% of companies recruiting passive candidates. A recent poll
has revealed that on LinkedIn, at least 63% of members are not actively looking but would still be interested
in new job leads. 2015 is certainly the time for companies to capitalize on the passive talent pool.
Closing the Gap Between Active and Passive Candidates

Embracing the Concept of Talent Branding
Talent branding is the social, public version of your company brand that seeks to
promote your company as being a great place to work so as to attract new talent.
Companies are increasingly noticing the impact that a good brand and company
culture has on their hiring process. Research from LinkedIn has found that costs per
hire can be reduced by 50% and turnover rates lowered by 28% when a company
has a strong talent brand in place. On top of this, three-quarters of talent
acquisition leaders have said that talent brand significantly increases their ability to
hire good talent. To give themselves as edge against other employers,
73% of organizations plan to highlight company culture in the coming year. There is
no doubt about it, the line between recruiting and marketing is blurring, as
recruiters are finding that marketing a strong talent brand helps them to attract
better candidates.

This key trend is one of the least tapped into by recruiters so far. There’s a growing disparity between the 43% of job seekers who use a mobile device
for their job searches and the 59% of recruiters who don’t invest in mobile career sites at all. Not to mention the fact that the number of candidates
searching and applying for jobs on mobile devices is on the rise. Companies and recruiters need to increase their mobile recruiting behaviors to match
candidate demand. 2015 is the time to make recruitment websites mobile-friendly and to mobile-optimize job postings. The easier it is for candidates
to search and apply, the more applicants companies will be able to screen.
2015 is going to be a competitive year for recruiters who are facing skills shortages but high demand for quality hires from companies. Tapping into
these five key recruitment trends will guarantee that companies and recruiters can keep up with the competition; there’s no option for lagging behind
next year.

Recruitment Marketing Recruitment marketing is the process of building an organization's employer brand to attract top talent.
Because a strong employer brand can play a significant role in convincing a job candidate, human resource
management (HRM) departments have increased marketing efforts to compete for candidates with scarce skills.
Examples of recruitment marketing initiatives include employment videos, search engine optimized career sites
and social media job advertising. There are also several technology platforms that can help HR managers get
started with recruitment marketing. Vendors include SAP-SuccessFactors, SmashFly Technologies, Jibe and Jobvite.

Recruitment in a Nutshell
The role of a recruitment consultant is more closely aligned with sales than HR, as recruitment consultants sell our services to
clients to secure their vacancies to recruit for. We then seek the right candidates to fill those vacancies, using a combination of
advertising, head-hunting and selection amongst other activities. A lot of this can be phone-based, although we do meet
clients and candidates across all our markets as well. The recruitment lifecycle covers everything from understanding what the
client wants to sourcing the right candidate to negotiating the job offer. This requires the ability to multi-task, as our
consultants handle a number of different candidates and vacancies at any one time.
Recruitment companies are usually heavily focused on performance and we’re no exception. This means that all of our
consultants work on targets and a commission structure that rewards good performance. This offers exciting career
opportunities and also rewards our staff for providing the best service to our clients. The culture is result-driven & fast-paced.
