Abstract

People's skill sets rather than technology drive the growth and success of software organizations, where ideas and information form the basis for profit generation and wealth accumulation. This article is an attempt to establish the significance of recruitment strategies, especially in the Indian software industry. The size of an organization, among various other factors, plays an important role in determining the type and shape of a strategy, including human resource strategies. This article aims to examine the different strategies of recruitment by software organizations on the basis of size (in terms of number of employees) with the help of a survey. The findings corroborate the proposition that recruitment strategies of such organizations vary with their size and that such strategies are focussed to meet short-term requirements.
