RATIONALE OF THE STUDY

Summer training is one of the most important segments of any MBA

program. It helps to enhance the knowledge of the student and also

provide a platform where an individual tastes the real happening of the

corporate world and market.

Intending to specialize in Human Resource Management I took up this

project which is titled as “RECRUTIMENT PROCESS AND ATTRITION OF

THE EMPLOYEES”.

The reason behind picking up this topic was to get into a scene of human

resource management in financial sector in India. How the recruitment is

done in Kotak Securities and other broking houses and to understand the

reason behind attrition of employees in different companies. Broking

House is one of the most booming sector in today’s world as it is full of

new opportunities. I choose Kotak Securities for my training because it is

one of the most prominent players in this industry. Also its market share is

increasing.

This project would not only be beneficial for my career but it would also be

of great help for the organization as well. With the help of this project

company would be able to make out its real market position and their

standings as compared to other market players. The survey thereby

conducted will be highly beneficial to the company as they they can easily

define their set of actions.

REVIEW OF

LITERATURE

Page 21: Pooja Project

Review of literature

Understanding Recruitment

Recruitment refers to the process of finding possible candidates for a job

or function, undertaken by recruiters. It may be undertaken by an

employment agency or a member of staff at the business or organization

looking for recruits. Either way it may involve advertising, commonly in the

recruitment section of a newspaper or in a newspaper dedicated to job

adverts.

Recruitment is an ongoing process and not confined to formative stages of

an organization. Employees leave organization in search of greener

pastures, some retire and some die in the saddle. More importantly an

enterprise grows, diversifies, and takes over other units – all necessitating

hiring of new personnel. In fact the hiring function stops only when the

organization ceases to exist.

In simple terms recruitment is understood as the process of searching for

and obtaining applicants for the jobs, from among whom right people can

be selected.

“It is the process of finding and attracting capable applicants for

employment .The process begins when new recruits are sought and ends

when their applications are submitted. The result is a pool of applicants

from which new employees are selected.”

Though, theoretically, recruitment process is said to end with the receipt of

applications, in practice the activity extends to the screening of applicants

so as to eliminate those who are not qualified for the job.

21

Page 22: Pooja Project

What is the Purpose of Recruitment?

Increase the pool of job candidates at minimum cost.

Help increase the success rate of the selection process by reducing

the number of under qualified or overqualified job applicants.

Meet the organization’s legal and social obligations regarding the

composition of its workforce.

Increase organizational and individual effectiveness in the short and

long run.

Evaluate the effectiveness of various recruiting techniques and

sources.

Why is it Important?

Help reduce the probability that job applicants, once recruited and

selected, will leave the organization only after a short

period of time.

Begin identifying and preparing potential job applicants who will be

appropriate candidates.

The Recruitment Process at KOTAK SECURITIES is as follows:

1. Manpower Requisition Form (MRF) Generation accompanied by External

Hiring Form (EHF) – Business Manager

22

Page 23: Pooja Project

A detailed job analysis is conducted to identify the skills required to do a

job, the sources which can be tapped and hence make the sourcing

focused. Hence the primary objective of the generation of Manpower

Requisition Form (MRF) is to identify what the job entails and what an

incumbent employee must posses to perform successfully on the job.

This form is to be essentially accompanied by the External Hiring Form

(EHF) which is the documented proof of the Manager’s requisition and

willingness to increase the Head Count in his / her team.

Term of employment

Once it is known how many and what types of recruits are required,

consideration is given to:

i) Sources of recruitment to be considered

ii) Companies where the required hires may be employed – Knowing the

companies where the desired applicant would be employed helps in

sourcing the candidate on a job portal.

iii) Time for each step of recruitment – This last step helps in control and

evaluation of recruitment process. The time frame is laid down for each

step of recruitment.

This exercise gives the staffing member concerned a clear idea of the

requirement and hurdles if any.

2. Sourcing

Page 25: Pooja Project

the chart that the Employees Referrals are most relied upon and the least is

The open positions are also publicized on website of Kotak Securities. This

is done through the help of corporate communication department. The

details of position, contact details of staffing partner and minimum

qualifications and skills required for the job are given and response is

received at e mail address of kotak securities.com

The response received thus, is sorted as per the requirment and the rest

data is kept for meeting the future need. The details of candidates are

captured in a excel sheet and used as source of database. This is revised

on a regular basis.

The company website is an economical source of recruitment as the

internet is catching on potential employees. It is comparatively simple and

easy to operate.

DATABASE:

27

Page 28: Pooja Project

The database, is maintained in a excel sheet format and consists of

resumes sent to the business manager with details of candidate’s profile,

comments of the manager, interview date etc.

If the requirement is such that a candidate found unsuitable for a position

in one business unit is found suitable for another business unit then the

candidate may be reconsidered for an opening at kotak securities.

By applying various filters of qualification, experience, position or

employer the data in the Recruitment database can be made accessible.

The only point to be taken into account is to update the database both in

terms of changed qualification of candidate and resumes sent to business

manager.

CONSULTANTS:

Consultants are another source receiving resume.as per the need for

recruitment consultants are contected these are also economical and

simple way of getting candidates

3. Pre Screening

The resumes received from various sources are to be pre-screened

before sending to the business manager. The purpose of pre-screening is

to remove from the pool of candidates, at an early stage those applicants

who are clearly unqualified for the job.

28

Page 29: Pooja Project

details of profile are captured.

identify and hire those with a greater likelihood of success in job.”

The role of selection is crucial in any organization for at least, two reasons.

--Firstly, work performance depends on individuals. The best way

to improve performance is to hire people who have the

competence and willingness to work.

--Secondly, the cost incurred in re-recruiting can be avoided if the

right personnel are selected in the first place.

29

Page 30: Pooja Project

applicants and ending with the contract of employment. Selection is

influenced by several factors, the attitude of selector or panel of interview,

nature of candidate, etc.

Attrition Rate or Churn Rate

Defining attrition : "A reduction in the number of employees through

retirement, resignation or death"

Defining Attrition rate : "the rate of shrinkage in size or number"

37

Page 38: Pooja Project

Introduction: In the best of worlds, employees would love their jobs, like

their coworkers, work hard for their employers, get paid well for their work,

have ample chances for advancement, and flexible schedules so they could

attend to personal or family needs when necessary. And never leave.

But then there's the real world. And in the real world, employees, do leave,

either because they want more money, hate the working conditions, hate their

co-workers, want a change, or because their spouse gets a dream job in

another state. So, what does all that turnover cost? And what employees are

likely to have the highest turnover? Who is likely to stay the longest?

Churn rate is a measure of customer or employee attrition, and is defined as

the number of customers who discontinue a service or employees who leave a

company during a specified time period divided by the average total number

of customers or employees over that same time period.

For example:

churn rate has been an ongoing concern of telephone and cell phone services

in areas where several companies compete and make it easy to transfer from

one service to another.

Churn rate is also sometimes called attrition rate. It is one of two primary

factors that determine the steady-state level of customers a business will

support.

In its broadest sense, churn rate is a measure of the number of individuals or

items moving into or out of a collection over a specific period of time.

A clear distinction needs to be made between 'net churn' = overall loss of

subscribers or members vs. 'gross churn' = absolute disconnections. The

difference between the two measures is the number of new subscribers or

members that have joined during the same period.

As such:

38

Page 39: Pooja Project

net churn (%) = gross churn (%) - new adds (%)

Example:

Given 100 members, in a given year 10 choose to leave, while 4 new members

join. At the end of the year we thus have 94 members. Gross churn = 10% New

adds = 4% Net churn = 6%

Scope and Importance

Increasing opportunities and employee aspirations induced by robust

economic growth have led to an unhealthy attrition rate, exceeding 20

per cent for India Inc, with services sector facing the maximum brunt, a

study shows.

An ASSOCHAM Business Barometer Survey on 'Attrition Problem in a

Growing Economy' has revealed that attrition rate at 40 per cent is

39

Page 40: Pooja Project

alarming in the services sector, while the same in manufacturing was 20

per cent.

Maximum attrition is taking place among employees in the age group of

26-30 years, while those with an experience of 2-4 years are most

vulnerable to job-hopping, the survey covering 160 HR heads noted.

Interestingly, women employees were less prone to job changing

compared to men. "For every 10 males jumping the fence there were

only two females crossing over. Even if women face the pressure of

balancing the management of their families and workplace, they tend to

be more stable than their male colleagues," 52 per cent of HR managers

surveyed said.

With India joining the globalised world of business, the movement of

workforce across national boundaries has also added to the rising level

of employee turnover, according to 72 per cent of the respondents.

The immediate gains in salary package was found to be responsible for

job change in 61 percent of the cases, growth potential was also rated

quite high as an important reason.

Reasons for Attrition

pay and benefits

supervisory relationship

opportunity for advancement

Personal reasons including family responsibilities, illness or household

relocation.

Inadequate opportunity for training.

Workload

Inadequate opportunity for full utilization of skills

Inadequate work space and computer equipment.

HR consultants say one of the key gaps being faced by the industry is

the low level of expertise at frontline (lower-middle) management, in

managing and sustaining an ITES-BPO operation.

EMPLOYEE’S EXPECTATION:

Preference for cash in hand

Long-term benefits to ensure greater security

Comprehensive medical benefits for self and family

Life insurance

Personal accident insurance

Housing loans

In order to attract and retain a competent workforce, employers must offer

high quality jobs and working conditions that will allow employees to use their

abilities to the fullest. Employers should strive to provide specific conditions

such as:

• A pleasant physical environment where the work is performed.

• Job designs that allow employees to use their abilities in ways that

allow for professional and personal growth.

• Flexible schedules that are family-friendly and enhance the

professional and personal lives of employees.

• A work environment where individual rights are protected.

• Teamwork and communication that allow employees to be aware of

what is occurring and to participate meaningfully in decisions

that shape organizational goals and their own careers.

Employee Engagement

“The more the Employee Engagement, The less is the Attrition and The Less is the

Employee Engagement, The more is the Attrition”

Employee Engagement is defined as a positive attitude or thinking

exhibited by the

employee towards the organization and its core as well as business values.

The more the employer works with the employees to develop an emotional

bonding

towards the organization through every possible means, the more is the

employee

engagement percentage.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

MEANING OF RESEARCH: -

Research is an art of scientific investigation.

Research means “a careful investigation or inquiry specially through

search for new facts in any branch of knowledge.”

The project titled, as “RECRUITMENT PROCESS AND ATTRITION OF

EMPLOYEES” required research to be done.

45

Page 46: Pooja Project

RESEARCH DESIGN

The research is primarily both exploratory as well as descriptive in nature.

The sources of information are both primary & secondary.

A well-structured questionnaire was prepared and personal interviews were

conducted to analyze the recruitment and work satisfaction of employees

which may lead to attrition.

This can be divided into two major parts

1. Brainstorming

2. Survey (Questionnaire)

Brainstorming

I brainstormed for factors drawing largely on the personal experience of

the group members. The major influencers that we came up with were:

Demographics

Industry segmentation

Job satisfaction

Job level

Miscellaneous influences

Questionnaire (Survey)

The design of questionnaire is of paramount importance. It will be used to

translate the information needed into a set of questions that the

respondent could answer and the answers thus obtained could in turn

yield the desired result. Questionnaire attached separately

SAMPLING METHODOLOGY

46

Page 47: Pooja Project

Sampling Technique: Initially, a rough draft was prepared keeping in mind

the objective of the research. A pilot study was done in order to know the

accuracy of the Questionnaire. The final Questionnaire was arrived only

after certain important changes were done. Thus my sampling came out to

be judgmental and continent

Sampling Unit:

The respondents who were asked to fill out questionnaires are the

sampling units. These comprise of employees of Kotak Securities and

employees of different organization in same trade.

Sample size:

The sample size was restricted to only 100, which comprised of mainly

people from different regions of Varanasi. Which comprised of top level

management for recruitment part and all present employees for attrition

part.

Sampling Area :

The area of the research was VARANASI ZONE, UTTAR PRADESH.

Secondary data:

(i) Data collected for companies from various site available of the

companies included in research.

(ii) Data collected from reports prepared earlier by HR department.

ANALYSIS REGARDING ATTRITION

70

Page 71: Pooja Project

To test the general Hypothesis of Salary being the most influential factor for Attrition, we applied certain Hypothesis test.

The Independent-Samples T Test procedure compares means for two groups

of cases. Ideally, for this test, the subjects should be randomly assigned to

two groups, so that any difference in response is due to the treatment (or

lack of treatment) and not to other factors. This is not the case if you

compare average income for males and females. A person is not randomly

assigned to be a male or female. In such situations, you should ensure that

differences in other factors are not masking or enhancing a significant

difference in means. Differences in average income may be influenced by

factors such as education (and not by sex alone).

The Independent-Samples T Test procedure tests the significance of the

difference between two sample means. Also displayed are:

for the difference between the two variables (95% or a value you specify)

Descriptive statistics for each test variable

A test of variance equality

A confidence interval

71

Page 72: Pooja Project

The Descriptive table displays the sample size, mean, standard deviation,

and standard error for the groups.

The procedure produces two tests of the difference between the two groups.

One test assumes that the variances of the two groups are equal. The Levene

statistic tests this assumption.

The t column displays the observed t statistic for each sample, calculated as

the ratio of the difference between sample means divided by the standard

error of the difference.

The df column displays degrees of freedom.

The column labelled Sig. (2-tailed) displays a probability from the t

distribution with 251 degrees of freedom. The value listed is the probability of

obtaining an absolute value greater than or equal to the observed t statistic,

if the difference between the sample means is purely random.

The 95% Confidence Interval of the Difference provides an estimate of the

boundaries between which the true mean difference lies in 95% of all

possible random samples of 250 employed people.

Since the significance value of the test is less than 0.05, you can safely

conclude that the average employees’ leaving the job is not due to chance

alone. The priority of changing the job is as follows

1. Opportunity for advancement

2. Connection between pay and performance

3. Salary

72

Page 73: Pooja Project

CHAPTER 7

FINDINGS

73

Page 74: Pooja Project

FINDINGS

1. From fig 1 it is observed that the size of recruitment team in an

organization varies from 3 – 7.Reliance Have On an Average have

Higher Number Of Team Members It Can Be Concluded That

Companies that companies have Large Or Small team Depanding On

Number Of Employees, Areas Of Coverage, and Policies of the

Companies.

2. On an average the open positions that a recruiter handles

varies irrespective of the type of organization and size of recruitment

team. If we compare tab 2 & tab 1, we cannot find any specific trend

followed in common. Need of employees in an organization can be

the factor deciding for the size of recruitment team and number of

openings handled by any single team member.

3. If we observe tab 1 & tab 3 closely, we can come to the

conclusion that normally companies with Higher number in

recruitment team handle more skill sets and vice-versa. Excluding

exceptions. Time required to close any position would play an

important part in distribution of skill sets.

4. Number of closures in a month by a recruiter fully reflects the

efficiency of recruiter and also depends on the need of

employees.Thus It can be said as the larger the company more

closures are to be handled.

5. Different Companies Have Different policies And Strategies Of

Performing Therefore Kotak Securities Gives Huge Importance To

74

Page 75: Pooja Project

Internal Recruitments and Employees Referrels And Then to job

Portals and Consultants.

6. Incentives to recruitment team members are given in very few

companies for their motivation. In present scenario of high attrition

rate it is important to retain the employees and giving incentives can

be a good policy. BUT as it is part of their job thus no incentives are

given

7. Tab 7 helps us to understand that 80% of companies pay

rewards to employee referrals and tab 8 helps us to know that out of

that 80%, 62.5% companies pay rewards that are position specific

and rest pay fixed incentives.

And tab 9 gives the observation that maximum companies have a

range of 5,000 to 7,500 for their monetary rewards.Recruitment team

must follow the correct and usual procedure and no exception

should be allowed. Gift vouchers and complimentary passes also

work effectively and can be used.

8. The major part of population covered in attrition part is from Kotak

securities itself as depicted in question 1 in part B of the

questionnaire. But the attrition rate is not so high in Kotak. Attrition

rate in religare is the highest in the study. This can be because of the

simple reason that employer pays least attention to their employee

satisfaction.

9. Question 5 and question 6 covers the most obvious observation. It

covers about maintaining data of employee leaving the organization

and conducting a exit interview. This is mostly done by every

company. The other question talks about the effect of attrition over

employee. The response depicts that 70% of employees have

75

Page 76: Pooja Project

positive experience over attrition. It is a much obvious response

because people switch their jobs for some added value.

10. The last two question of attrition part covers the measures to

decrease attrition in organization and the training measures taken by

companies. The most popular type of measures taken by companies

is the promotion method. Promotion method not only gives monetary

benefit but also the motivation as the vested responsibility. And the

most prevailing training technique is lecture training.

76

Page 77: Pooja Project

CHAPTER 8

RECOMMENDATIONS

AND

SUGGESTIONS

77

Page 78: Pooja Project

RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGESTIONS

The recruitment process should not be time taking.

The process should not be too lengthy.

The job description and job satisfaction should be clearly defined.

The employees should be NCFM qualified which is the main criteria

for the selection process. As per NSE rules all dealers and RMs

should be currency derivatives passed and back office should be DP

passed.

Various monetary and non monetary benefits should be given to the

employees to retain them in the organization.

Employee should be awarded proper benefit in results of incentives

which subsequently increases there work satisfaction.

There should be high coordination between employees working at

different levels.

Various employee engagement programme should be counducted

time to time.

78

Page 79: Pooja Project

CHAPTER 9

LIMITATIONS

79

Page 80: Pooja Project

LIMITATION

1. The research is confined to a certain parts of Varanasi and does not

necessarily shows a pattern applicable to all of Country.

2. Some respondents were reluctant to divulge personal information

which can affect the validity of all responses.

3. In a rapidly changing industry, analysis on one day or in one segment

can change very quickly. The environmental changes are vital to be

considered in order to assimilate the findings.

Following were the difficulties faced during the completion of project:

Non filling up of certain questions of the questionnaire which led to

the cancellation of that particular questionnaire.

Non understanding of certain parameters in the questionnaire.

Taking a sample size of 100 people does not reflect the mindset of all

kinds of people from different backgrounds, different age groups and

income groups.

The samples collected may carry a bias of field of work and position

as there is a large amount of data from lower or middle

management people.

We could not test all possible combinations as there are large no of

interactions prevalent in the data which needs expert advice.

The demographic influence needs more objective data to analyse it against

the job satisfaction and attrition criteria

Again research study of 3 months is a time constraint and covering whole

of Varanasi population by taking a sample size of 100 is not feasible.
