Strengths and weaknesses of different approaches of recruitment and selection
Recruitment
The recruitment is the well known approach of the human resource management in which
organisations influence and inspire the probable candidates to apply for the job opening. It is the
process of attracting talented applicants. Kingfisher use two ways of recruitment in order to
pinpoint talented applicants for an organisation. The two approaches of recruitment used by
Kingfisher are:
Internal Recruitment

from the inside of the organisation. For internal recruitment the two approaches used by the
Kingfisher are:
2

Transfer: The process of internal source of recruitment in which the HR manager of the
Kingfisher shift an already working employee from one location to another with the same
amount of responsibilities.
 Strengths

environment and also its job opportunities are increased.
 Weaknesses
The employers may have to incur the additional cost of training of employee to transfer in new
area and if employee doesn't adjust in new place may lead to loss of productivity.
Promotion: Promotion is the best way for internal recruitment and also for the management of
human resource in this the current employees is upgraded to higher level position on the basis of
performance (Singh and et.al., 2021).
 Strengths

Kingfisher.
External Recruitment
The external recruitment is the elementary process of recruitment in which the recruiters of the
Kingfisher evaluate the candidates from the open pool in order to hire the candidates with new
skills (DEVI, 2018). Kingfisher is the reputed company therefore, this is better approach of
recruitment in order to attract talented employees. The different approaches of external
recruitment used by the Kingfisher are:
Advertisements: The advertisement is the form of external recruitment in which organisation
publish their advertisement of vacancy for particular job role in print media and social media.
Kingfisher also use this method of recruitment.
 Strengths
The advertisement has strong potential to reach the people in every corner and attract the talented
candidates for the Kingfisher. As company is multinational organisation therefore, this is
beneficial to attract the candidates from world wide.

The advertisements is the slow process as the feedback is not immediate therefore, it is not
applicable during urgent hiring.
External Agency: There are several agency that are linked between he job seekers and the
organisations (Gilal and et.al., 2019) . Multinational organisations like Kingfisher use this
method of recruitment in which agency provide the organisation with some outstanding CV.
 Strengths
This is effective way of recruiting as the pool of candidates is already selected one therefore,
requires less efforts and time also response is immediate.
 Weaknesses

candidates for information.
Selection process
3

Selection is the process of the hiring the candidate by brainstorming and evaluating the job
profiles of selected list of candidates (Hameed and et.al., 2020). Kingfisher use different methods
of selection as the job role. Some basic methods of selection used by the Kingfisher are:

In this the selector of the Kingfisher ask the question to the candidates to analyse its capabilities
and knowledge

and skills of the candidate (Yap Peng Lok and Chin, 2019).

Aptitude test: The aptitude test is the written exam in the form of multiple choice questions or
the one word answer of mathematics and general knowledge to check the mental ability of the
candidate.
 Strengths
In Kingfisher this method is useful as this is standardized and also there is no bias judgement of
the candidates.
 Weaknesses
This method requires the time for evaluation as the results are not quick and also setting
questions for the test is difficult.
Benefits of HRM practices in context of Employee and Employer
Managing the employees is a difficult task for which Kingfisher use different HRM
practices which are beneficial for both employee and employer (Kellner, 2019). Some of the
HRM practices are discussed below:

profitability
Learning, training and development is the effective HRM practices which supports
employees to get training, managing each function properly. Training is used to develop the
understanding level of their staff and improve their ability to work effectively. In relation to
KINGFISHER, learning, training and development practice is used by human resource
management by analysing skills of new employees which can help to managing each task and

al., 2020).
Workforce planning is the HRM practice which is used by management to analyse supply
and demand of employees, assessing gaps and forecasting which can help to manage all
activities. KINGFISHER is the using the workforce planning as practice where in it analysis the
vacancy and select the right people that can help to managing each function and complete the
task properly. This also supports all working staff to understand their role and demand of
employees then perform all function. This helps to increase the organizational productivity as
well as profitability by completing task and developing business performance (Moustaghfir, El
Fatihi, and Benouarrek, 2020).
HRM practices aims at the improvement of the skills of employees and managing the
employees by motivating and encouraging them towards the organisational goals. The
effectiveness of the HRM practices help the employers of the Kingfisher to manage the conflicts
of the people, increase the employees potential for work, provide them better opportunity, align
the people towards company's mission and vision and much more (Mohammad and et.al., 2017).
It is critically evaluated that the effectiveness of above HRM practices helps the Kingfisher in
increasing profitability and productivity as discussed below:
Recruitment and Selections
The Recruitment and selection practice is the most common and well known practice of
the organisation. In context of Kingfisher the company use external agencies, social media in
order to hire the most talented and well trained crew manners in order to improve their passenger

their capabilities for productivity and profitability of the Kingfisher (Mira Choong and Thim,
2019).

The training and development practice of HRM is the strong tool which huge value for
the employers and employees of the Kingfisher. In Kingfisher the employers conduct and
arrange the training and development session for the pilots to learn new technology aircraft's for
which company also appoint experts from the best flying institutions. This helps the the company
to quickly grab the new technology for the better service and sustainable development that also
reduces their cost of fuel and increase profitability (Nam, 2018). In Kingfisher the cabin crew

HRM practices such as training & development, and workforce planning are important for
