4. $he ecruitment and #election Policy o! PBL
!ersonnel Management is by far the most important element of an organization. This is
particularly true for a service organization li"e a commercial ban". !rogressive companies pay
special attention to recruitment& selection& training& orientation& evaluation& promotion andcompensation of E-ecutives& >fficers.
!* Recruit$ent Procedure:
The success of a commercial Ban" depends largely on the quality of services rendered to the
clients. Kuality depends on the competence and the quality of the >fficers and E-ecutives. !rime
Ban" #imited believes in paying competitive salary and emoluments to its employees and to get

17/39
ma-imum services out of them. Therefore& the authority of the Ban" has to be careful in recruiting
the right person for the right 'ob.
)t should be the duty of the Managing +irector along with the top Management to analyze the
manpower requirement of the organization every year and fi- up the number of >fficers&
E-ecutives and other employees of each category required for effective operations of the Ban".
The Board of +irectors on the recommendation of the Management will be the supreme authority
to sanction or to create additional post. 4reation of a post implies commitment of fund for about
thirty years.
Therefore& it is the responsibility of the management to e-amine the wor" load and do the 'ob
analysis wor" and to loo" into the real requirement of employees under various categories and to
see whether an additional hand is really necessary.
!rime Ban" must recognize the importance of manpower estimation and accordingly an
organogram should be prepared for Head >ffice and for each +ivision Branch. The
organogram shall however& not be rigid& the Board may review and revise the organogram as
may be considered necessary from time to time. Recruitment will be made to fill up the vacant
posts as and when required by the competent authority as per power delegated by the Board.

,everal recommendations for the e-isting recruitment and selection policy and procedure are
described here.
5* Stop (ccepting
8/10/2019 prim bank.docx
35/39
The ban" should maintain a database of 4Gs of all applicants& which would be easier if
applying online is encouraged. !B# may also maintain a separate database of candidates
who have been selected. 2rom this database it will be evident after a while& which university
graduates are more suitable for the 'obs in !B#. Because& it can clearly be seen which
graduates are doing better during the recruitment and selection process of the ban". 2rom
then on& !B# can target and advertise only in those universities and institutions for
candidates.
5/ Short@listing of C?s
proper and ob'ective guideline should be set before the initial short listing is done(
i% The 4Gs received through the sourcing process is firstly screened by the HR
+ivision to determine a fit against the 'ob specification. ,creened and short*listed applications
should then be forwarded to functional heads to draw a short list for the recruitment e-am or
interview.
ii% final short list should be drawn up by the functional unitsIdepartments and
forwarded to the HR +ivisionN enclosing short*listed and re'ected 4Gs. Re'ected 4Gs of
possible future interest could be sorted in a database. But this is not done in !B#. >nce a 4G
is re'ected& no record of it is "ept.
iii% Based on the short list received by the HR +ivision& letters to the short*listed
candidates should be issued specifying a date and time for the interviews. )nstead& the
candidates are called on the phone for the interview. lthough this probably saves cost& it has
other disadvantages& e.g.& it is very time consuming. The practice of sending letters to thecandidates should be started.
5! 0esting the ?alidity of the 7ritten 'Aa$s
4urrently& the validity of the written e-ams is not being tested. !B# should find out whether
their written e-ams are valid& that is& whether the tests measures what they claim to measure.
The written e-ams for the entry level positions are usually cognitive aptitude tests which
measure a candidate

The HR strategy
5" >ntroducing =ob no&ledge 0ests
primary advantage of a 'ob "nowledge test is that it is by definition 'ob*related. test for any
specific organizational 'ob can be designed based on the data gathered from an in*depth 'ob
analysis. These tests may require written responsesN they may also be orally administered
e-ams. These tests should usually consist of a few "ey questions that would distinguish the
qualified from the unqualified.
53 >ntroducing (ssess$ent Centers
n assessment center is a selection technique for identifying management potential. )n
assessment centers& potential candidates are sub'ected to different e-ercises constructed to
simulate the 'ob for which they are applying. 4andidates participate in a series of activities
similar to those they may be e-pected to encounter in the actual 'ob. These activities may
include management games& leaderless discussion groups& moc" interviews and othersimulations. team of assessors observe and evaluate the participants. Both ?ob "nowledge
tests and assessment centers can evaluate how a candidate will perform in the actual 'ob.
!B# should thin" about introducing assessment centers as one of its selection tools.
55 Realistic =ob Previe&
Many candidates have unrealistic e-pectations about a prospective 'ob or employer. These
wrong perceptions can have negative consequences later for an organization if such
candidates are hired& e.g.& 'ob dissatisfaction& absenteeism and turnover. To correct this
situation& !B# should provide a clearly written 'ob description to the candidates as well as arealistic 'ob preview before recruitment so that the candidate can have a clear picture about
the 'ob heIshe is going to ta"e and the organization heIshe is going to wor" for. realistic 'ob
preview should convey both positive and negative aspects of the 'ob and the organization
ob'ectively and in an unbiased manner.
56 Background >nvestigation
Reference chec"s should be done only for candidates who have been approved by the
recruitment panel for the 'ob. Reference chec"s should be carried out for all potential
permanent employees. This is important in order to verify information and ensure that theorganization is aware of any serious problems in the candidateften performed for positions that involve financial responsibilities

!B# should strive to reduce this high rate of turnover by recruiting effectively.
5*2 Stop Policy ?iolation
There has been policy violation of the recruitment and selection policy in terms of criteria and
procedure violation. 2or e-ample& it is against the policy to recruit interns from universities that
are not in the list given in the policy. But the graduates of such universities that are not listed
in the policy are being recruited as interns. lso graduates from listed universities but not
having the required 46! are also recruited as interns sometimes. These sorts of policy
violations occur as a result of requests of high officials. n e-ample of procedure violation has
been going on for quite some time. That is there were no written e-ams being held for
recruiting Ts until very recently.
Conclu(ion
The success of a commercial ban" depends largely in the quality of service rendered to the
clients. Kuality of service depends on the competence and the quality of the employees of the
organization. Therefore& the authority of !B# has to be careful in recruiting the right person for
each 'ob. s has been seen& the recruitment and selection process of !B# has rooms for
improvement. The policy and process should be revised. ,o although the process they have
been adopting so far has been somewhat effective& to adapt to the changing times& the
process should be revised and streamlined.
