LITERATURE REVIEW
According to Agarwal and Al Qouyatahi, (2018)Globalisation is the term which connect
distinct type of products, services, technologies or information to the people. In terms of
economic development globalisation has been provides job opportunity, modernization,
improved standards of living, easy access to product or services etc. The concept of globalisation
is base on idealistic that wants to develop a global free market. In order to critique as per Ahmad
and et.al., (2019) Globalisation is the concept which is related to social, political or a legal
phenomenon. It reflects outcomes with different diverse inputs. In other words, Globalisation has
been given great impact on business development as they provides businesses great opportunity
to be the global leader and generate the more income opportunity. Legally globalization has
altered how international law is created and enforced.
As according to Beck, (2018) Recruitment & Selection is foremost challenge for the
multinational companies. Different cultures, values and beliefs are the reason those impact on the
international environment. In other terms, Recruitment is the process of identifying the
organisation needs to employ someone for the right place. Besides, selection is the negative
process than Recruitment which choosing one candidates from any who are the most suitable for
the job. However, present research base on to identifying the impact of globalisation on HR
function. In order to examine the challenges involves in globalisation in terms of recruiting

people from outside the countries. This is the most complex process for HR managers to analyse
and select people from different country or region Cooke and et.al., (2019). Sometimes, diversity
in organisation can creates conflicts or disputes among employees. Besides, due to different
corporate cultures new candidate will not survive much within organisations. Somewhere this
issue can also harm company cost.
As according to Bresler and Stake, (2017) In order to reduce the globalisation impact
Nestle could also apply some productive approaches and techniques for the employee selection
and recruitment in order to know the behaviour or skills an employees. Besides, that Nestle also
provides some online, attracting training methods to motivate new candidates within the
organisation just to seek the interest of them. However, by applying some motivational
leadership theories HR manager can create the healthy and productive environment within the
business culture.
As according to Brewster, Mayrhofer and Farndale, (2018) globalisation and
internationalization process generate more opportunity and growth for the better transformational
goals. Globalisation has brought many transformation changes and the recruiting field is not
exception. This move toward global hiring has allowed organizations to secure the very best
workers and reap the benefits of a different app although the advantage of a global approach to
recruiting. Global recruiting challenges companies new to global hiring should be cognizant of
the very real pitfalls for firms that enter this process ill prepared. Global strategies fro
recruitment and selection process will always helpful and strengthening for the company.
Besides that, this approach will support future growth and attract top talent goals. However, it
has been analysed that, recruitment policy has always derived from personal policies of the
organisations.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Research Approaches: It is the process or the procedure to enhance the effective
learning opportunity and goals. which is based on the detailed assumption method which looks at
the data collection, analysis and version of the investigation. Their are two type of the Research
approach in general i.e. Deductive research approach which looks at existing theory for the
purpose of developing the hypothesis, and on the basis of that hypothesis are tested (Beck, 2018).
Generally the path is follow is the Theory – Hypothesis – Observation – Confirmation. The
second approach is the Inductive approach which starts with the observation and the theories are
proposed at the last stage of the research for the purpose of the result of the observation.
Generally the path which is followed in this approach is the Observation – Pattern – Theory. In
this the Inductive approach has been used to carry out the outcome for the report as the Inductive
report is more realistic as compare to the deductive approach.
Research Philosophy: Research philosophy are the belief or ways through which data
can be collected. Their are generally two type of the philosophy which is used in common by the
researches i.e. Positivism is the belief which generally looks at the society, which generally relies
