Abstract

Recruitment and selection process in software development organizations is a complex task that involves technology parameters apart from Human Resource (HR) aspects. The mass recruitment process by software companies involving thousands of candidates requires a centralized software solution to integrate various parameters of selection process. After analyzing the recruitment process adopted by software development organizations using primary and secondary survey, the research paper suggests a software solution in the form of a decision support system. The software provides an integrated interface for conducting aptitude test, technical, HR and final interviews. The decision support system can save time and resources of the recruiting team. The software has been developed and suggested in web-based environment, so the recruitment and selection process can be conducted anywhere, anytime on the Internet.
