Your local newspaper has been publishing a series of insights into businesses in your area. JOHN LEWIS
You have been asked to write a case study of a large business that has 250+ employees. You will choose a business for this case study. This may be your work placement, where you have a part time job or any business that has a transparent easily accessible recruitment system.
The case study should evaluate the recruitment and selection processes, and link these to business success.
TASK
You will need to research a number of large businesses of 250+ employees to choose one to write about.
Using your research, write a case study that analyses and evaluates the recruitment and selection processes, drawing reasoned conclusions on how these processes contribute to the success of the business.
The case study should include a synopsis of the business, to include the scope of its business activities and its size, and demonstrate an understanding of its workforce planning, and the recruitment methods and processes to include the use of outside organisations, and ethical and legal considerations. Your case study will demonstrate how the recruitment process links to the success of the business. You will also consider the problems that impact on the business resulting from ineffective recruitment and from staff shortages
All conclusions will be fully justified by well-balanced, developed arguments, and supported by good use of research evidence.
● Evidence of research into the recruitment and selection processes of large businesses of 250+ employees
● An individual report that examines the recruitment and selection processes in a large business of 250+ employees.

*Evaluate the recruitment processes used and how they contribute to the success of the selected business.
*Analyse the different recruitment methods used in a selected business.
*Explain how and why a business adheres to recruitment processes which are ethical and comply with current employment law.
*Explain how a large business recruits and selects giving reasons for their processes.
