(AKG), one of the largest conglomerates in Bangladesh. The study focuses on understanding how the
organization attracts, selects, and retains competent employees in order to meet its business objectives in
a highly competitive market. Recruitment and selection are considered the most crucial functions of
Human Resource Management, as they directly influence organizational performance, employee
satisfaction, and long-term sustainability.
The report begins by highlighting the background, objectives, and importance of the study. The main
objective is to analyze the recruitment and selection practices of Abul Khair Group, evaluate their
effectiveness, and identify the challenges and gaps in the existing system. Both primary data (collected
from interviews and surveys of HR officials and employees) and secondary data (company reports,
publications, and academic sources) were used to complete the research.
The company profile section provides a detailed overview of Abul Khair Group, including its history,
business units, organizational structure, and human resource practices. As a leading business
conglomerate engaged in FMCG, cement, steel, tobacco, dairy, and consumer goods, Abul Khair employs
a large workforce, making recruitment and selection a critical strategic function for its success.
The analysis reveals that Abul Khair Group follows a structured recruitment process, involving both
internal and external sources. The selection process includes CV screening, written tests, preliminary and
final interviews, medical examinations, and reference checks. For key positions, psychometric testing and
assessment centers are also used. The HR department ensures that the process remains transparent,
competitive, and aligned with organizational goals. | en_US |
