INTRODUCTION
Recruitment and selection is the process of searching and hiring the best candidates to fill
the vacant post in the organisation. This project will consider about the necessity of improvement
of training and recruitment strategies in Nestle company to meet international requirements. A
detail research will be provided in this study. Study will also show the WBS and Gantt chart to
easy interpretation of the result.
LO 1
P1 Aims and objectives
Background
Employees are the essential part of every organisation and the company's success as well
as failure totally depends on them (Sarker, 2018) . Managing multinational human resources
refers to the process procedure for employing, developing as well as satisfying the employees in
multinational companies. The global entity includes many nationalities, cultures as well as come
from different backgrounds and work together in the same corporate culture. So, in order to meet
the global requirements, the international companies need to manage the human resources
effectively and efficiently by modifying the recruitment process because it helps to determine the
win-win employees as well as organisation because the wrong recruitment of the employees can
cause losses to the company. So the company need to use the internal and external of recruitment
for enlisting like direct individuals and giving advertisements in newspapers, journals as wells as
electronic recruiting. Secondly, after recruiting the company need to improve the selection
process in which the purpose is to select the most appropriate candidates on order to meet the
needs and requirements at the global level (Rees and Smith eds., 2017). The global company
need to use proper selection methods like interview with superior administrator from various
companies and the employees must make sure about screening procedure like psychometric tests,
medical tests regarding the potential employees as per the global mind-set. After that the
company should conduct proper training for the employees like on the job and off the job
training as well as by organising the training programmes to improve the skills, knowledge and
experience of the current employees and the new selected employees in the best way in order to
meet the global requirements effectively and efficiently.

Literature Review
According to Rees and Smith eds., (2017), The global entity includes many nationalities,
cultures as well as come from different backgrounds and work together in the same corporate
culture. So, in order to meet the global requirements, the international companies need to manage
the human resources effectively and efficiently by modifying the recruitment process because it
helps to determine the win-win employees as well as organisation because the wrong recruitment
of the employees can cause losses to the company. So the company need to use the internal and
external of recruitment for enlisting like direct individuals and giving advertisements in
newspapers, journals as wells as electronic recruiting. Secondly, after recruiting the company
need to improve the selection process in which the purpose is to select the most appropriate
candidates on order to meet the needs and requirements at the global level.
As per the view of Sarker, (2018)Recruitment and selection is very important and
effective part of organization in order to hire the best candidate. This help to analysis skills and
ability of candidate before selecting those in organization for performing task and for achieving
goals or objectives. This will help to hire potential workforce for performing valuable work in
organization. In this process, manager deals with candidate face to face and understand their
needs or expectation in advance. This is highly effective screening the best candidate in
organization.

P 2 Plan which is covers project management, cost, scope, time, risk and resources needs in
research:
Project management is the path to manage the activity performing for the research. It
includes the planning, organising and implementing the resources of the firm in order to
completion of particular task or event. The primary concerns of project management are the
budget, time, quality and scope.
Cost:
Cost means the amount that will incurs in conduction of the research (Sarker, 2018). For
performing research on the factor that consider by the Nestle following will be the cost which
will be bear for accomplishment of such research:
Cost bear by the researcher:
Printing cost 300 pounds
Software cost 500 pounds
Data collection cost 350 pounds
Cost bear by the Nestle:
Testing cost 1000 pounds
Marketing cost 1500 pounds
Implementation cost 2000 pounds
Scope:
By conducting such research, the scholar has an opportunity to learn about the Human
resources management practises and as where the Nestle company also get information about
new HRM practise and adapting such practises.
Communication:
5

For the research the Scholar will use the physical communication for communicating the
results. In physical communication system the researcher will used to meeting personally and
establishing calls to gain and provide the information. Whereas the Nestle will use social media
platform and using mail to communicates with other about the research.
Time:
For conducting the research on Nestle that they should improve the training and
recruitment strategies or not for the employees, the researcher needs 7 weeks to completes the
research and provides the effective result (Rozario, Venkatraman and Abbas, 2019). While the
Nestle firm needs 3 months to test and implement those result of the research.
Quality:
For the research the researcher needs to use the reliable data. The researcher selects the
qualitative method of data collection and through using this scholar collects the information on
which one can trust. For Nestle the quality was based on the practices adapted buy the firm,
which ensuring that it provide the benefits to the company.
Risk:
While performing the research, the researcher bears risk regarding collection of wrong
data can destroy the research and wrong information collected by the firm has a financial as well
as human risk to the firm (Rozario, Venkatraman and Abbas, 2019) . If the firm adapt wrong
practise then it will be taken as huge financial and human loss.

researcher is software manpower, papers, computer, internet and so on. Whereas the Nestle
company also needs resources to test and implements such research i.e. human resources, capital
and technology.
P 3 Work breakdown structure and Gantt chart for giving time frame and providing the stages for
completion
Work breakdown structure:
The work breakdown structure is the process or method to break the tough and complex
task into the small tasks, so it can be easy to perform such activity. It is a hierarchical
6

decomposition of total activity of work that will be carried out by the project manager to
completing the research and achieve the goal and objective of the research (Sarma, 2017). WBS
provides the framework of detailed cost estimation and control with direction of schedule control
and development. It facilitates the foundation of the project management task, considering
planning, efforts and cost estimation.
Gantt chart:
Gantt chart is the type of bar chart which illustrating the project time schedule (Coller,
Cordero and Echavarren, 2018). In which the width of the chart shows the time duration. It
facilitates the estimation of start and termination elements dates of the project. It is creates
initially using an early start time approach, where each specific task is scheduled. It is also
known as a visual presentation of task in which the activities are step down and shows on chart
which makes it easy to understand and interpret.
