Dont give up on training. We know budgets are tight but there are
some very cost effective training seminars that dont require round-trip
airfare, two nights hotel stay and a rental car. Look locally for a good
day or 1 day seminar and send your employees to it! Not only does
it show that you value their growth as an employee, it gives them a
chance to be with each other, outside of the office and can be used as
a really great morale booster. Its also a great return on a minimal
investment.
Work culture plays an important role in organization success. Hard times push
organization to the limit where its culture stands in motivating to survive.
Many organizations in India are facing tuff time managing their employee and
operations as because of culture not so conducive for changes and flexibility.
There are some of the pointers which will help to improve work culture:
1. Say thank you often, and sincerely, face-to-face.
2. Publicly acknowledge hard work and initiative on the company bulletin
board, in the newsletter, during meetings and at company social
events.
3. Offer the option for arriving an hour late on Monday mornings or
leaving an hour early on Friday afternoons when possible.
4. Give bonuses for meeting company financial goals (e.g. money,
parties, a trip, etc.). Or, offer time off to an employee who has made a
difference.
5. Acknowledge special events (e.g. birthdays, anniversaries of time
employed, accomplishments, etc.) either through cards, company
newsletters or meetings.

Many
organizations,
especially
large
ones,
administer
executive
compensation somewhat differently than compensation for lower-level
employees. An executive typically is someone in the top two levels of an
organization, such as Chief Executive Officer (CEO), President, or Senior VicePresident. The common components of executive compensation are salaries,
annual bonuses, long-term incentives, supplemental benefits, and
perquisites.
Two objectives influence executive compensation:
(1) Ensuring that the total compensation packages for executives are
competitive with the compensation packages in other firms that might
employ them.
(2) Tying the overall performance of the organization over a period of time to
the compensation that is paid to executives.
It is the second objective that critics of executive compensation believe is not
being met. In many organizations, it appears that the levels of executive

Interests: People tend to pursue careers that they believe match their
interests.
Self-image: A career is an extension of a persons self-image, as well as
a molder of it.
Personality: This factor includes an employees personal orientation
(for example, whether the employee is realistic, enterprising, and
artistic) and personal needs (including affiliation, power, and
achievement needs).
Social backgrounds: Socioeconomic status and the educational and
occupation level of a persons parents are a few factors included in this
category.
Less is known about how and why people choose specific organizations than
about why they choose specific careers. One obvious factor is the availability
of a job when the person is looking for work. The amount of information
available about alternatives is an important factor as well. Beyond these
issues, people seem to pick an organization on the basis of a fit between
the climate of the organization as they perceive it and their own personal
characteristics. Many factors may influence job choice, including the gender
of the job informant who passed along job information. The dream jobs of
young people ages 13 to 17 change over time, as Further, people change jobs
more now than ever before.
Types of Recruitment Models
Different Types of Recruitment Models
Different companies have different hiring needs. So depending on level of
engagement, exclusivity, long term prospects and other factors many
different recruitment models are followed in the market.Here I will try to
explain them.
Different recruitment models:
Contigency Hiring
Retained Search
Exclusice Requirements:
Recruitment Process Outsourcing(RPO)
Outplacement
Executive Search
Contingency Hiring: In contingency hiring whenever a company comes across
any requirement it gives it to many consultants at the same time and asks all
of them to send resumes.Only the consultant whose candidate is offered gets
money from the company. Here recruiters don't get any assured and fixed
salary. Their revenue depends entirely on whether they can make offers or
not.As risk factor is high here, consultants charge more percentage for such
type of recruitment. generally company pays in terms of a specific
percentage of CTC of the candidate. This is the most prevalent way of
recruitment.
Retained Search: Here a recruitment consultant works exclusively for a
specific requirement and payment is divided into two parts.He is paid a fixed
amount by the company for search activity. It is called retainer fee. Other
than that if he makes offer he gets more money. For recruitment of senior
executives like CEO,Sales head very focused approach is required , so this
method is preferred.
Exclusive Requirements: Sometimes companies give some requirements
exclusively to recruiters. Here recruiter assures the client to close the position
within specific date. if he cant close the position by that time he needs to
either close the position with lesser commission or bear some other
penalty.All the conditions are clearly decided before the contract. Here
percentage of commission is less than contingency hiring because there is no
competition.
Recruitment Process Outsourcing(RPO): RPO model is gaining lot of popularity
recently. Here a company outsources whole recruitment process to another
consultant. Some people from the consultant side seat in the company itself
and manage the whole process by themselves. The sourcers can either sit in
the client place or in their own office. Here RPO partner is responsible for
closing all the requirements. They take care of the whole recruitment process
right from sourcing,scheduling, interviews, offer to joinings.The benefit for the
company is that- they don't have to manage their own recruitment team
which reduces costs. But on the other hand risk is high, because if
consultants don't understand the company culture and hiring plans properly it
can get disastrous also. So companies should be careful while choosing
recruitment partners.Because we are talking about high scale and longer
duration engagement here.
Outplacement: Outplacement came into picture during recession period. Here
If a company wants to lay off some people employees to cut costs, they can
hire a consultant to place those employees in other companies. The
recruitment cost is borne by the current employer.Outplacement is not very
popular till now.
Executive Search: Executive search teams only focus on senior level ie: CEO,
CTO, Sales head and similar kind of requirements. Method of sourcing for
such positions are quite different from junior level requirements. Here number
of potential candidates are less and they don't prefer to show their resume on
the portals. So head-hunting, searching in networking sites and personal
networks help a lot. For such requirements commission is much higher.
Executive search teams do retained search activity also.
Other than the above models recruitment can be divided in other two types.
Permanent recruitment
Contract or Temporary staffing
