P1: Describe the recruitment documentation used in a selected organisation.
If Tesco are looking to recruit workers to be behind the till and on the shop floor, first of all they will advertise the job role, they can do this in many ways today. They can advertise the vacancy in a newspaper, posters, website, web adverts. As the job role does not require very skilled and qualified people, the recruitment process will be a lot faster. When Tesco advertise the vacancy they will need to include the job description and all duties that will be expected, qualifications and skills required by potential applicants and location of where the work will be done so the applicants know if they will be able to commute there. The application form will have a job specification, person specification.
People who have seen the vacancy and are interested will send in their CV, a CV will include the qualifications/skills of a person, a personal statement from them, their interests and hobbies, any previous experiences of work and any other information about someone that is relevant to an employer. When the applicants send in their CV they will wait to be informed if the employer is interested in hiring them. When they fill out the application form and send it with their CV, the organisation have their details now and can get back to them when needed.
Applicants whose CVs have met the job description and skills needed will be invited for an interview, this is where the employer will get a first-hand look at what kind of people have applied for the job role and who out of them are best suited. The employer can decide after the first interview who they may want to hire, if the job role is more sophisticated they may need to have a second interview with the top applicants, they may also assess or examine the applicants to have a further understanding about them.
