Reaction Paper No.5
KUNDIMAN COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION: Mr. Lonely
The Kundiman Communication Corporation is a local company with more than
2,000 persons in the payroll. One of the member of the staff is Engineer Lorenzo de
Guzman, an electronics engineering graduate. He was assigned to manage a new
telecommunication facility in Antipolo, Rizal and that has been given only three months
to make the facility operational. To make this possible, he needs to recruit
knowledgeable and qualified personnel to work in the facility.
The problem now is that how will Engineer De Guzman recruit qualified persons
to occupy the various positions that will be created, if he’s trainings and experiences
have not provided him with the experiences to do so? Second, how will be able to
know the information about the number of needed personnel and their job description?
He pondered that what his first move must be, knowing that his next promotion will
depend much on the success of the new facility under his direction. He thought that if
he could only get the right persons, his job would not be difficult.
To make the new telecommunication facility operational after three months, I
think Engr. de Guzman should hire a human resource manager. We know that the role
of human resource manager is to plan, direct and coordinate the administrative
functions of an organization. They oversee the recruiting, interviewing, and hiring of new
staff. Consult with top executives on strategic planning and serve as a link between an
organization’s management and employees. It must be a great help for Engr. de
Guzman to solve his problem. First step is human resource planning, the KCC has
2,000 persons under the employ and it is large enough to the company to remain
stable. Then the following step: recruitment, selection, induction and orientation, training
and development, performance appraisal, employment decision, and last, separation.
By solving this problem, it could help him a lot with the specified number of
employees needed to be hired. Proper selection of the staffs is an important
matter. Imply proper selection screening process and determine those qualified job
specifications.
