Introduction
Recruitment and selection is the vital part of the human resource management. However,
the success of an organization depends on the recruitment process. If the HR recruits effective
candidate then the performance level of the organization will be high. On the other hand, if the
HRM department fails to select the effective candidate then the performance level can be
affected (Sarma 2017). In order to establish a fair recruitment process, it is important to
implement a recruitment policy. This study deals with the recruitment and selection policy in the
context of Woolworths. However, Woolworths wants to implement equal opportunity policy in
their employment process. This policy will be helpful to make the transparency in the
recruitment and selection process of the organization.

process due to lack of right people for the desired position (Woolworths.com.au 2018). However,

level.
