Nestle Project: HR Recruitment, Selection, and Training

This project delves into how multinational corporations, specifically Nestle, can enhance their recruitment, selection, and training practices to meet international standards. The project begins by outlining the objectives, scope, and a project management plan (PMP) which covers cost, time frame, quality, communication, risk, and resources. It then builds a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) and a Gantt chart to clarify project timelines and task completion. The research methodology incorporates both qualitative and quantitative research methods, including primary and secondary data collection through questionnaires. The project evaluates the research findings, providing recommendations for Nestle to improve its HR practices and ultimately achieve its goals. The project concludes with a reflection on the research process and its alignment with the project's objectives.

et.al ., 2019. ). The effective kind of outcomes can be obtained by overwhelmed analysis of
information. By using various kinds of research method acting and tools availed by organisation
for achieving desirable objectives are as follows:
Quantitative Research –
Quantitative research can be defined as the research that deals with statistics and
numbers. The data that is collected by the researcher during a quantitative research can be
expressed in the form of graphs, tables and numbers. This type of research is generally carried
out in order to test certain assumptions and theories. Data collection involves techniques that are
semi structured like interviews or group discussions. This type of research helps in developing an
initial understanding of a topic.
Qualitative Research -
Qualitative research is concerned with the collection of information that is not related to
numbers and describes concepts, observations and characteristics. Qualitative research focuses
more on solving complex problems and breaking them down into simpler and easy to understand
form that can be interpreted by the researcher easily ( Meynerts-Stiller and Rohloff, 2019. ).
The results of qualitative research are descriptive in nature and not related to numbers in anyway.
Examples of the qualitative research include face to face interviews etc.
Primary methods -
Primary research refers to the process of collecting information that is first hand and is
directly collected from the respondents. The researcher is not dependent upon any kind of results
that were previously collected by someone else. Various primary methods of collecting data for
the research are interviews, polls, surveys etc. The methods can be reliable and provide accurate
first hand information that can be directly used in the research. One of the advantages of these
methods is that the amount of data that has to be collected can be controlled.
Secondary methods -
Secondary research uses the information or results of the research that was conducted
previously at some point ( Müller, 2019). A secondary research is comparatively easy as it is
cost as well as time effective when it comes to collecting data and analysing it. The results of a
secondary research take into account a wide area of issues but since the data is not first hand,

there can be cases when the results can be wrong. A researcher can refer to journals, reports etc.
that were done earlier in order to use the the data and results that are provided in the same.
Sampling -
Sampling can be referred to the process in which the data is collected from a specific
group of people that is picked out of a large population people. Sampling a very popular
technique that is used be researchers across the globe to collect data that is required in their
research. Sampling can be divided into two categories, namely – probability and non-probability
sampling. Examples of probability sampling are random, cluster, stratified and systematic
sampling whereas judgemental, convenience, quota and snowball sampling can be counted under
non-probability sampling.
Questionnaire -
A questionnaire can be referred to as a tool that is used in researches and comprises of
various questions that address the a specific problem and the results of a questionnaire can be
used after analysing them ( Pearlson and Saunders, 2019. ). Questionnaires are an economical
as well as an easy way of collection of data that help in collecting data from a large number of
respondents. The responses that are collected from the people is uniform and consistent.
