Meet Andy-VJ: A Recruitment Manager's Insight on the Cost of Bad Hiring Decisions

Hi all,

It's my pleasure to be a part of Cite man HR Network. I became a member some time last week. I would like to introduce myself to all of you and am eager to get to know about you too.

My name is Anand Vijayendra, and I work at Tata Elxsi Limited in Bangalore as a Recruitment Manager. I have a total of 13 years of experience in the Recruitment Domain. Horizontally and vertically, I have worked with all technologies.

Currently, my portfolio involves handling Lateral Hires globally and Freshers both On and Off Campus. I am a Certified Recruitment Analyst from Carlton Management, and I also conduct seminars and training on Effective Recruitment Methodologies.

To start, I have posted an article on the Cost of Bad Recruitment. Please feel free to contact me for any kind of help required.

Thank you,
Regards,
Andy-VJ

Hello mate,

Firstly, welcome to CHR. I am a student, and I don't have enough knowledge about HR like you do. I went through your document and understood almost everything except for this part about the costs incurred due to lack of eligibility and skills in the recruited individuals. I understand that it can be costly, but I didn't grasp the following points:

Client Related:
- Internal/External Client loss
- Future business loss

Can you please explain this further?

Internal/External Client Loss

Internal Loss: Bad recruits spread negative influence on team members or colleagues within the company, thereby causing organizational disharmony. This might lead to demotivational factors for others working with them, and to the extent that team members mentally prepare to quit the company due to their influence.

External Client Loss: Bad recruits and team members quitting the company immediately, or while serving notice periods, invite troubles to the projects, deadlines, and commitments made to the client. Replacing bad recruits might take some time, between 10 days to 30 days, which leads to dissatisfaction for the client. Consequently, we might lose the client.

Future Business Loss: Once we lose a client, that means we have lost future business opportunities with them.

Hi Anand,
