Hi deepali,
i too agree about the selection part (pahsing out bulk indents with the psychology templates) but what about sourcing techniques -- say placing an advertisements for a niche profile, where you find it tough to have closures and have deviations in TAT. few metrics are defined as per rule of marketing. dont get into selection part only. for gettin candidate on the board "recruitment" is the front liner - which means inviting potential candidates for selection on the basis of rejection.

Hi deepali,
i too agree about the selection part (pahsing out bulk indents with the help of psychology templates) but what about sourcing techniques -- say placing an advertisements for a niche profile, where you find it tough to have closures and have deviations in TAT. few metrics are defined as per rule of marketing. dont get into selection part only. for gettin candidate on the board "recruitment" is the front liner - which means inviting potential candidates for selection on the basis of rejection. so some kind of selling deliverables comes into action. what about BPOs where insourcing is done for recruitment (coz attritions are high) business heads have carte blanche' to recruit, they juss slog to meet recruitment as sales target, which puts more quantity & poor quality.

HI ANIMESH,
YA DATS RIGHT, if u luk wht i said is dat recruitment does involve sales bt very less as compared to hr. Bpo's do hv high attrition rate bt i think dat is many times b'coz of poor hr policies dat are attached to dis sector. i think dere is a lot of improvement needed in hrd in dis particular sector . if proper tests are devised to check in for a candidate's stability and skills it cud lead to decrease in attrition rate. Ya dat is rite dat dere is bulk recruitment in call centers bt den sooner or later much of filtering is done n den it is included under attrition. wht do u say?

Hi deepali,
i dont agree that attrition leads to filtering, by certifying those who have expertise and flair for this unlucarative job. if you make business and grade wise split for resignation analysis. u"ll see that BPOs have very short career. with attributes like "home has become a hotel" / its good to work with call center if you are sitting ideal.
so if you look through the fish bone grid attrition is a major concern but still uncontrollable one. BPOs now silverstriking on retention policy more than time shelling for recruitment.
where things like resignation analysis, staybility analysis, and reduce TAT is prima facie
isnt it deepali....
by the ways are you working or in studentship?

Thanks All!
For taking out time to express your opinion.
I agree that Recruitment is a core HR activity but as Animesh said it does get mixed up with a bit of sales sometime and this is where the whole discussion started.
Thanks again...

recuritments is not sales, bcz sales is all about client generation(account) & recuritment is clientservicing....more of operations...it relates to sales in only one way i.e. TARGETS....WHAT SAY???

Lots of discussion going on here.....

Well I say that a sales person can do HR work more efficiently as they already have experience of dealing with people [clients] and get work [order] out of them..

At the same time, they are much more comfortable with deadlines [targets / delivery / collections] and can work under extreme stress. [See a sales person converting a lost client, and you will know what stress they face]

They face lots of competition and retain their market share... It can be done for the retention of the employees...

Customer Relations can be converted to Employee Relations... Quite a number of similarities in a job... Just need to have a correct perception on the subject....

By the way... Vishal has quite good examples on perception

Will try to list out the job description of a Sales Professional and match it with HR Professional

Would make quite a good reading.... What say??

A part of recruitment, specially sourcing or soliciting prospective employees need certain sales trait such as ability to communicate effectively the opportunity, ability to generate an interest and spark in the individual for the open position and convince the candidate that the open position presents a better value for him and his career. As a HR/Recruitment person, when we speak to candidates on positions and the company, we do the HR bit of "selling" OR "presenting a value proposition".
In many countries, recruitement is part sales as well and it can encompass client and account management. Although recruitment is a HR activity, the person performing that role should have the necessary soft skills.
Is recruitment Sales or HR, as I understand, its a HR functional role that needs a few "sales" attributes.
my two bit.
