ABSTRACT
The
most valuable asset of any organization is its human resources. The acquisition
of the relevant labour force centres on recruitment and selection process. The
ways and method of recruitment and selection of employees however are now
challenging today more than ever before by a changing and more demanding labour
force that has high expectations about the work place. Simultaneously, rapidly
advancing technologies and outside influences are changing the nature of the
jobs. It is therefore pertinent to investigate the impact of recruitment and
selection on organizational productivity which we took (The Nigeria Breweries
Company Plc) as a case study. The hypothesis earlier derived help to guide the
study. Therefore it is recommended that adequate attention should be paid to
the recruitment and selection of workers in order to promote organization
productivity and also to enhance the standard of the product to be produced,
because the efficiency and intellectual of the employees been employed will
surely boost the level of productivity. This means the right people should be
employed at the right time, for the right-job and to the right position.

Background
Of The Study
Today, there is a general believe
that management decision should be based on the best information that is
available at the time. This means that, so far as possible that there should be
relevant, objective and adequate in both quality and quantity human beings are
the life blood of any enterprises. They are literally company most vital
assets. The profitability and the survival of enterprises usually depend upon
the members of the work force. Since recruitment process opens the company’s
door to the world of breakthrough and objective realization, the manner in
which employee process is conducted is of crucial importance.
Recruitment is not only concerned
with engaging number of people, it is also concerned with measuring their
quality. It is not a matter of satisfying a company future but rather it is
accumulative result that predetermines the future health of an enterprise. The
efficient recruitment and selection pattern leads to the development of an
efficient work force. The need to make accurate decision is in the hand of
selection of human qualities and traits which depends on good and objective
method of getting them. The study is therefore, concerned with future goal of
the organization as to make a concrete evaluation and selection of people for a
particular job in an organization and also to asset the individual formulating
and developing his future plans and goals.
