Employers
Outsourcing of manpower has become a common practice with companies nowadays. There is always a requirement of professionally qualified and skilled staff in any organization. With the increasing demands of the industry, there is not enough time to get into the complexities of selecting a candidate. This is where outsourcing of manpower comes in.
Organizations both large and small are largely hiring services of Burj Overseas to provide them with outsourced manpower. They no longer want to get into the hassles and the long process of recruiting.
Outsourcing of manpower is a complex job. There is a two way responsibility. Firstly to provide skilled manpower to their clients and secondly to provide good opportunities to the candidates who apply through them. This means a lot of responsibility and there has to be clarity from both ends to enable the manpower staffing companies to provide the right results to both its counterparts. It may sound easy but it is a difficult task.
Burj Overseas has major contribution in deploying the third largest pool of skilled manpower in the world from India. Renowned globally, the Architects, Engineers, Computer Programmers, Doctors, Marine Skippers, Aviators, Administrators, Managers.....The Indians have contributed to making of the modern world and so has Burj Overseas. The teeming millions of skilled labour have provided a solid support system.
An investment in Indian manpower, a profitable option, has always yielded high dividends in projects as far apart as dams and airports, nuclear installations, high-rise structures and power stations, hotels and hospitals. Indian Manpower has passed the acid test of workability, efficiency and dedication.
It matters little whether you need engineers or welders, mechanics or drives, paramedics or IT professionals, physicians or nurses, secretaries or accountants, executives or managers, you will find an Indian ideal to the task. An asset to his workmates, an Indian is surely an asset to his employers, an asset to the place where he resides.
The easy familiarity with English language, even at the lowly cadres of labour, eliminates the communication barrier. This fact alone paves the way to higher productivity.
Burj Overseas has a team of efficient and experienced people who have excelled in outsourcing manpower according to the requirements of their clients. Their effort is to benefit both the client and the candidate with a position which is up to the mark for both.
The Head Hunting Team
The most general approach adopted by most recruitment agents in India is to only release newspaper advertisements for candidate sourcing. This method carries an inherent risk:"The Right person may not even apply."
There are two reasons:-
India consists of multi regions, multi language populations. There are 56 local language newspapers and 18 English newspapers. There is not even one publication which controls the attention all over India. There are newspapers which have ten to fifteen editions from different cities. The recruiting agent may release advertisements in one or two newspapers, without the guarantee of coming to everyone`s notice.
For Example, "The Times Of India" has the maximum readership in Mumbai, and it has other editions published from Bangalore, New Delhi and Ahmadabad. But the widest read newspapers in Bangalore is "Deccan Herald" and that in New Delhi it is "Hindustan Times". As far as Indian Express is concerned, it has extensive readership as it has more editions including one in Chennai. But the most circulated newspaper in Chennai is "Hindu" Compound this to the fact 80% of Indians read local language newspapers and you will arrive at the awesome cost factors.
To attract all the candidates all over India, 56 local and 18 English newspapers have to be used. A small advertisement of 2 column 10 cm (20 column cm) in these newspapers have to be used. A small advertisement of 2 column 10 cm (20 column cm) in these newspapers will cost a minimum of one Millions Indian Rupees. This is not practicable and nobody therefore attempts it.
Secondly, the `right' person whom you are looking for may not go through recruitment advertisements. Because in India, the most tarnished business is recruitment. There are hundreds of unscrupulous recruitment agents who have cheated the job-seekers. The person you are looking for, being a shrewd man may not ever dare to apply, in order to avoid the risk of being cheated. The `right' person, whom you are looking, is happy with his present, steady job where he is already leading a good life.
Burj Overseas`s Head Hunters come into the picture at this juncture.
The nine search executives on the permanent payroll of Burj Overseas are stationed at different cities in India. Once they identify the `right' person, they use their professional and social contacts to reach him. The search executive explains them the job parameters, the compensation package and the positive effect of such assignments on his subsequent career. A discreet reference to the people recruited earlier is also made and the candidate is invited to contact them to verify the facts. The candidate`s fears are allayed and he is helped to make up his mind.
Thus our Head Hunting Team eliminates the possibility "the right man may not even apply to the advertisements".
These brilliant achievers are themselves professionals of the highest grade and impeccable credentials. Burj Overseas has taken pains to include all disciplines to provide a ready, direct access even to the highest calibre.
