MAIN BODY
1.How does Netflix HR philosophy help shape their employee attraction, retention and firing
policy and practices? Discuss first about this policy in the United States and then globally?
The management at Netflix is focused upon hiring experienced employees rather than
newly graduate from students from colleges (Hu and et. al. 2021.).The company aims for hiring
individuals who are enough self capable. The organisation is not majorly focused towards
qualification of employees and if management is focused towards hiring of individuals are
mostly aligned with organisational culture and also have technical knowledge as well. This
allows an organisation to ensure that they are able to hire talented individuals in an effective
manner.
