Introduction: You have read about recruiting and
selection processes used in various companies as well as practiced with
some of those concepts. Now you will apply your understanding of these
concepts by reading a case scenario and then addressing the checklist
items. Use the case study template provided below to complete this
assessment.
Use the Case Study Analysis template for this assessment.
Case Scenario:
A Silicon Valley recruiting firm searches for artificial intelligence
(AI) and technology personnel for major companies around the world. The
recruits’ workplace could be located anywhere the company operates,
depending on their skills and expertise, although the tendency is to
hire in-country nationals in each respective country. The company uses
technology-oriented magazines, the company website, and social media to
recruit the candidates they need for their clients. They started up
about a year ago and went from 3 to 50 recruiters. Their recruiters are
hired for their charm, communication skills, and industry expertise;
however, most of the recruiters graduated from Ivy League colleges in
the U.S. and most are white males. Lately recruiting numbers have been
slowing down drastically, while general demand in the marketplace by
employers for AI and technology personnel for the coming year is up
300%.
The current recruiting practice involves hiring people via the firm’s
website recruitment area. The potential candidate merely attaches their
resume and includes a short note to the recruiter (Step 1). These
resumes are then screened (Step 2) using a data mining program, looking
for certain criteria and terminology in their resumes. Those candidates
getting through the initial screening are then auto-contacted by email
(Step 3) to tell them they need to complete a quiz on the website using a
particular password. If they pass this second screening, they are given
an individual interview (Step 4) via the company’s online conference
room. The final candidates are sent to the potential employer for the
final interview (Step 5) and selection (Step 6).
Now, however, the president is getting complaints from the U.S. Equal
Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and the technology firms that
they need to be hiring a more diverse workforce and that there are no
disabled candidates, and the number of minorities and women is almost
nil. The president is now worried about losing clients and about
potential lawsuits as a result of the firm’s recruiting and selection
processes. The company needs to address a diverse client base. Their
clients’ customers are predominantly Northern European, African
American, Indian, and Hispanic
Checklist: As the HR specialist of the company, you are tasked with overhauling the selection and hiring process to address the following:
Identify at least three problems with the potential candidate
characteristics for which they are hiring and what would be more viable
characteristics and criteria for hiring these types of candidates.
Identify and explain at least three problems with the company’s
recruitment and selection process. What multicultural and diversity
planning concepts would you apply at the company to make a positive
change? How can these changes be made?
Describe what changes you would make to address complaints from the
EEOC and the technology firms. How can these changes be made?
