 PREFACE

I opted for this particular topic named “Recruitment & Selection” because recruitment and
selection procedures have taken a dramatic change in the industry. Human resource is responsible
for giving birth to human embalmers. The core function of an organization is Recruitment and
Selection because the organization doesn’t want to be a bad recruiter by selecting manpower that
might have the potential to spoil the long earned goodwill or corporate image and also incur heavy
recruitment costs on them.

Selection, is the process of picking individuals who have relevant qualifications to fill jobs in an
organization. The purpose of selection is to pick up the most suitable candidate who would meet
the requirements of the job in an organization best, to find out which job applicant will be
successful, if hired. To meet this goal, the company obtains and assesses information about the
applicants in terms of age, qualifications, skills, experience, etc. the needs of the job are matched
with the profile of candidates.

Recruitment, refers to the process of attracting, screening, and selecting qualified people for a job
at an organization or firm. For some components of the recruitment process, mid- and large-size
organizations often retain professional recruiters or outsource some of the process to recruitment
agencies. It is the process to discover sources of manpower to meet the requirement of staffing
schedule and to employ effective measures for attracting that manpower in adequate numbers to
facilitate effective selection of an efficient working force. The main objective of the recruitment
process is to expedite the selection process.

INDUSTRY PROFILE

8
Everybody must be having a thought that a thermal power plant is a place where electricity is
produced. But do you know how it is produced? How the chemical energy stored in fuel is
converted into heat energy which forms the input of power plant i.e. steam and electrical energy
produced by generator? Power is the single most important necessity for common people and
industrial development of nation. In a conventional power plant the energy is first converted to a
mechanical work and then is converted to electrical energy Thus the energy conversions
involved are:

The first energy conversion takes place in Boiler or Steam Generator, second
in Turbine and the last conversion takes place in the Generator.

A thermal power station is a power plant in which the prime

mover is steam driven. Water is heated, turns into steam and
rotates the turbine which drives an electrical generator after that
steam pass through in a condenser where it condensed and
recycled to again in boiler; this whole cycle is known as
RANKINE CYCLE.

site is about 12 km from Jhalawar (Distt.-Head quarter) and NH-12. Site is comprising of 5
villages viz. Nimoda, Undal, Motipura, Singhania and Devri. It is 2km from state highway
No.19 and 8 km from Ramganj Mandi - Bhopal broad gauge rail line

Fig-route between Kurukshetra Junction to Kalisindh Thermal

Power Plant

The site selection committee of Central Electricity Authority has visited the
Nimodha and its adjoining villages of Jhalawar Distt. And site was found techno-
economical feasible for setting up of a Power Project. The Govt. of Raj. have
includedthat project in 11th five year plan. The estimated revised cost of the project is
Rs.7723 Crores. M/s. TCE Banglore has been appointed as the technical consultant for
the project. The state irrigation department has allotted 1200 mc ft water for the project
from proposed Kalisindh dam. The origin of the Kalisindh river

12
is from northern slop of Vindya Mountains . The river enters from MP to Rajasthan near
village Binda. After flowing 145 km in Rajasthan, the Kalisindh river merges in Chambal
river near Nanera village of Distt. Kota.Its catchment area is about 7944 sq.km in
Jhalawar & Kota Distt. The existing Dam is located at Bhawarasa village, primarily for
P.H.E.D. purpose is being uplifted for providing a storage of 1200mcft water for this
powerproject.

The GOR has allotted 842 bigha Government land and acquired 1388 bigha private
khatedari land for the thermal project .Phase-1 will be constructed on 1400 bigha land
only.EPC contract has been awarded to M/s. BGR Energy System Chennai on
dt.09/07/08,through ICB route at cost Rs.4900Crores. Ministry of coal, Govt. of India has
allotted Paras east and Kanta basin coal blocks to RVUN in Chhattisgarh state. The
RVUN has formed new company under joined venture with M/s. Adani Enterprises for
mining of coal blocks and new co mpany started the work. Annual coal requirement for
the project is 56 LacsTPA.GOR also decided to setup two new units of2x660MW in next
few years.

 SELECTION OF SITE FOR THERMAL POWER PLANTS

Following factors must be considered for selection of site for thermal power stations :
1. Availability of raw material
2. Nature of land and its cost
3. Availability of water
4. Transport facilities
5. Availability of labour
6. Ash disposal facilities
7. Future expansion
8. Pollution
9. Away from air fields

1. Availability of raw material :

Modern steam power plants using coal or oil as fuel require very large amount of fuel per annum.
On rough estimates, a steam power plant of 300 MW capacity requires about 3000 tonnes of coal per
day. Therefore, it is necessary to locate the plant as far as possible near the coal fields to reduce the cost
of transportation of fuel. If the plant is located away from coal fields it may create problems due to
failure of transportation system, strike in mines etc.
For above reasons, atleast 15 days coal supply is needed to be stored at site. It results into :
(a) Increased space requirement
(b) Increased investment
(c) Additional staff requirement
(d) Losses in storage
In case it is not possible to locate the plant near the coal fields then it must be located near the railway
station to reduce the cost of road transportation cost from railway station to site of power plant.

14
2. Nature of land and its cost :
The site selected should have high bearing capacity of at least 10 N / mm² to withstand dead load of the
plant. It would reduce the cost of foundation of the plant. Total space required is 1500-2500 m² per MW
capacity of plant including the space required for coal storage and ash handling system. Therefore , the
land cost must be reasonable to reduce its capital cost.
To reduce the civil engineering cost, the land selected should not need much levelling of site i.e. it
should not require filling or blasting. Also, the site selected should not have any mineral deposits.

3. Availability of water :
Steam plants use water as working fluid which is repeatedly evaporated and condensed. It also needs
about 2% of steam generated as make up water due to its loss.
Also, considerable amount of water is needed for condensing the steam in condenser.
On rough estimates it requires about 18 x 10 litres of water per day for a 300 MW capacity plant and 36
x 10 litres of water as make up water. Thus, it is necessary to locate a thermal power plant near a place
where required quantity of water is available throughout the year e.g. near a river, sea or lake.

4. Transport facilities :
The power plant should be located where the adequate transport facilities are available for transportation
of fuel and heavy machinery for installation.

5. Availability of labour :
Large men power is needed during the construction of plant. Therefore, labour should be available near
the construction site at cheap cost.

6. Ash disposal facilities :

Huge amount of hot ash comes out of the coal based thermal power plants which is hazardous to human
and plant life. It is corrosive and polluting in nature. Therefore, there must be sufficient space and
facilities available to dispose of large quantity of ash.

7. Future expansion :
The site selected should be such that it allows economic extensions of the plant with the estimated
growth of load.

8. Pollution :
The thermal power plants should be located away so as to avoid any nuisance from smoke, fly ash,
noise and heat discharged from the plant.

9. Away from air fields :

The power plant should be located away from the densely populated and industrial area by taking into
account the aerial warfare.

15
 PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

For each process in a vapour power cycle, it is possible to assume a hypothetical or ideal process
which represents the basis intended operation and do not produce any extraneous effect like
heat loss.

1. For steam boiler, this would be a reversible constant pressure heating process of water
to form steam.

2. For turbine, the ideal process would be a reversible adiabatic expansion of steam.

3. For condenser, it would be a reversible a constant pressure heat rejection as the

steam condenser till it becomes saturated liquid.

4. For pump, the ideal process would be the reversible adiabatic compression of
liquid ending at the initial pressure.

5. When all the above four cycles are combined, the cycle achieved is called RANKINE
CYCLE. Hence the working of a thermal power plant is based upon Ranking Cycle
with some modification.

16
 THERMAL PLANT OPERATION PROCEDURE
The basic understanding of the modern thermal power station in terms of major
systems involved can be done under three basic heads viz. generating steam from coal,
conversion of thermal energy to mechanical power and generation & load dispatch of
electric power.

 COAL TO STEAM- The coal is burnt at the rate upto 200 tonnes per hour. From
coal stores, the fuel is carried on convey or belts to bunkers through coal tipper. It
then falls into coal pulverizing mill, where it is grounded into powder as fine as
flour. Air is drawn into the boiler house by drought fan and passed through
Preheaters. So me air is passed directly to bunker and rest, through primary air
fan, to pulverizing mill where it is mixed with powdered coal. The mixture is then
carried to bunker of furnace where it mixes with rest of the air and burns to great
heat. This heats circulating water and produces steam, which passes to steam
drum at very high pressure. The steam is then heated further in the Super heater
and fed to high pressure cylinder of steam turbine. . The spent steam is sent to
condenser, where it turns back to water called condensate. Condensate is sent tol
ower part of steam drum through feed heater and economizer. The flue gases
leaving boiler are used for heating purpose in feed heater, economizer, and air
Preheater.
 STEAM TO MECHANICAL POWER- Steam first enters the high pressure
cylinder of turbine where it passes over a ring of stationary/fixed blades which
acts as nozzle and directs steam onto a ring of moving blades. Steam passes to the
other cylinders through reheater and the process is repeated again and again. This
rotates the turbine shaft upto 3000rpm. At each stage, steam expands, pressure
decreases and velocity increases.
 MECHANICAL POWER TO ELECTRICAL POWER- To obtained the
electrical power from mechanical power we connect the shaft to an alternator’s
armature. When thearmature is rotated and electric current is produced in the
stator’s windings. The generated electricity is of order 25,000 volts.
 SWITCHING AND TRANSMISSION-The produced electricity is can’t to
transmitted as this state so It is passed to a series of three switches called an
isolator, a circuit- breaker, and another isolator. From circuit-breaker, current is
taken to bus bars and then to another circuit-breaker with it’s associated isolator
before being fed to the main Grid. Each generator has its own switching and
transmission arrangement. Three-phase system is used for power transmission.
CONTROL AND INSTRUMENTATION- Control and Instrumentation (C & I)
systems are provided to enable the power station to be operated in a safe and
efficient manner while responding to the demands of the national grid system.
These demands have to be met without violating the safety or operational
17
constraints of the plants.

 CHAPTER-
CONCLUSION

20
The recruitment and selection process is a critical aspect of human resource management that plays a vital
role in shaping an organization's success. As we conclude, it's important to highlight some key points and
considerations:

 Strategic Importance: Recruitment and selection are not just administrative tasks; they are
strategic processes that directly impact an organization's performance and culture. Making the right
hiring decisions can lead to increased productivity, employee satisfaction, and overall business
success.

 Legal and Ethical Considerations: Organizations must adhere to legal and ethical
guidelines throughout the recruitment and selection process. This includes ensuring equal
opportunity, avoiding discrimination, and respecting privacy rights.

 Clear Job Descriptions and Person Specifications: The foundation of a

successful recruitment and selection process is a well-defined job description and person
specification. These documents help both recruiters and candidates understand the role's
requirements and expectations.

 Sourcing Candidates: Organizations can source candidates through various channels,

including job boards, social media, employee referrals, and recruitment agencies. The choice of
sourcing methods should align with the organization's needs and budget.

 Selection Methods: Utilizing various selection methods, such as interviews, assessments,

and reference checks, helps in evaluating candidates' skills, qualifications, and cultural fit. It's
essential to select methods that are reliable and valid predictors of job performance.

 Candidate Experience: Providing a positive candidate experience is crucial for attracting

top talent and maintaining a good employer brand. Timely communication, transparency, and
respectful treatment of candidates are essential.

 Employee Diversity and Inclusion: Organizations should strive for diversity and
inclusion in their hiring processes to create a more representative and innovative workforce. This
involves addressing biases and promoting equal opportunities for all candidates.

 Training and Development: Recruiters and hiring managers should receive training in
recruitment and selection best practices. This helps ensure that the process is fair, consistent, and
aligned with the organization's goals.
21
  Continuous Improvement: The recruitment and selection process should be periodically
reviewed and improved upon. Feedback from both hiring managers and candidates can provide
valuable insights for making enhancements.

 Onboarding: After the selection process, successful candidates should undergo a structured
onboarding program to integrate them into the organization smoothly and set them up for success in
their new roles.

In conclusion, effective recruitment and selection are essential for an organization's growth,
competitiveness, and culture. By following best practices, adhering to legal and ethical standards, and
continuously improving the process, organizations can make informed hiring decisions that benefit both the
company and its employees.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

Research Methodology is a method to solve the research problem systematically. It involves gathering
data, use of statistical techniques, interpretations and drawing conclusions about research data. Keeping in
view the objectives of the study, data is collected from different sources. The purpose of this section is to
describe the methodology carried out to complete the work. Themethodology plays a dominant role in any
research work.

The effectiveness of any research work depends upon the correctness and effectiveness of the research
methodology.

 Data Collection Data refers to a collection of organized information, usually the results of
experience, observation or experiment, or a set of premises. This may consist of numbers, words,
or images, particularly as measurements or observations of a set of variables.

Data Sources
There are two types of data sources available to the research processes.
1. Primary data.
2. Secondary data.

1. Primary Data: The primary data is collected by using primary methods such questionnaires,
interviews, observations etc. For this study questionnaires are used to collect primary data from the
employees of the industries.
We know relatively little on a systematic basis about how or why organizationschoose to use different
combinations of these strategies,though some of the results reported in the study of recruitment and
selection and in large firms offers some pointers that are worthy of further exploratory research,
particularly among small and medium sized organizations. Nowadays employees suggests that
personality tests are now being routinely used for someoccupations in 19 per cent of workplaces, and
performance tests are being used in Recruitment and selection in 46% of workplaces.

Personality testing seems to be concentrated in larger workplaces and used upon professional,
managerial, and sales staff; andperformance testing concentrated again in larger workplaces but used
for professional and administrative staff.

Among the sample of large employers the overall relative ranking of importance of different
skill/suitability Assessment methods was as follows:
1. Interview
2. Work experience
3. Performance/competency test
4. Qualifications
23
 5. Assessment center
6. Personality/aptitude test

2. Secondary Data:- Secondary data is collected from various Journals, books, websites,
Government reports, News papers, and other research reports.
1. Newspaper sources
2. Journals& Periodicals
3. Campus recruitment
4. Employee referral
5. Consultancies

 Data Analysis: Analysis Data analysis is very important aspect of project, as it basically
involves the analysis of all the information that we collected. Data analysis is a body of methods
that help to describe facts, detect patterns, develop explanations and test hypothesis. After analysis
of each of the question in a questionnaire the interpretation of the same is also being provided
which includes the reason about the particular aspect of the organization
