Hi,

Since i was taking care of the recruitment,employees send me resumes of their friends or relatives.

As a part of employee reference scheme i take equal interest in the candidates without any bias.

But its very annoying when i just walk by people will stop me ask for the feedback for their reference,people will call on the weekends to ask how eill be the test is it easy or tough.

When ever i walk on the floor they will stop me and ask i have send you a resume wat did you do with that.

I was little irritated and i have shoot a mail,which my manager dnt like the way i have send the mails.

I will paste the two mails which i have send my employees and my manager dnt like the way i have put the sentences,he felt that was rude.

Hi Team,



If you want to refer any of your peers for our company,Kindly send their resumes to .



We would give due consideration to all the referred candidates without any bias.



As you know recruitment is time consuming process it would take time to close any position.



Please dont come up to me and ask for the feedback,i will only let you guys know the feedback if they are selected.



Even though our company is a start up we have adopted and we follow few policies and proceedures,and we maintain certain standards in Recruitment.



Its very annoying when people stop me and ask for the feedback, hope you understand the importance of Professionalism.



Regards,

and the next mail follows,

Hi Team,



I think in our company peolpe are sincere enough to enter correct timing while logging in



I noticed couple of people entering incorrect time violating the rules and regulations of the company, which would demotivate the other employees.





Thanks & Regards,

Guys tell whether i ws absolutely wrong or right or right in some ways and wrong in some ways..

Hi capricevogue,
According to me it is not the matter of what you did was right or wrong. It is very important in our early days of working we need to see what our seniors expect from us. So i would suggest just try to forget what as happened till now and from now onwards think N numbers of times before doing something where you wont consult your seniors. And also try to consult you team mates atleast if not your managers before sending such mails, in such times they might help you to make understand how your boss might react to such cases and also to draft the mail in such a way that the team might take it in the right way. So just relax now, hope this will help you out to some extent to settle down.............

hi friend
your intention is goo d but theway you presented it is a problem.
Well ,I understand that you are a junior person in the office .hence before sending such mails u must consult urboss.Moreover, the employees timing is a very delicate issue , which ifnot properly handled can create big problems. That's y ur boss scolded u 4 telling the matter so bluntly..
I would suggest that you better conult your boss b4 sending such common mails to all employees....u must remember that not all employees are faking their timings....so itmay hurt those who don't fake..and also give the impression to the employeess that their management mistrusts itsemployees..
Sobe careful in future

It is always advisable to wait for a full day before sending off emails/letters of complaint/admonition/reprimand etc. You will be amazed at the way you yourself manage to convey the same message in a less offensive way than you originally planned, but with the same effect, after you have slept over the matter overnight.
In HR, the way we pack the product is more important than the product itself :D

HI,
I WOULD SAY YOU DID A WRONG THING, A MAIL IS A WRITTEN PIECE OF EVIDENCE ALWAYS SHOULD BE JUDGED CAREFULLY PRIOR TO SENDING THEM.
YOU HAVE CREATED A NEGATIVE FEELING AMONG YOUR OWN EMPLOYEES ABOUT YOURSELF,
YOUR A HR PERSON, TACT AND DIPLOMACY SHOULD BE THERE AT ALL TIMES,ONLY THING THAT CAN UN DO THE DAMAGE IS, YOU GOING BACK TO EMPLOYEES AND GIVING THEM THE RECRUITMENT FEED BACKS AT END OF THE DAY, THIS WILL HELP YOU BUILD RAPPORT AGAIN, AND ALSO PEOPLE WILL NOT INTERRUPT YOU IN UR WORK AND WILL WAIT TILL THE END OF THE DAY FOR YOUR RECRUITMENT FEED BACK.
THANK YOU

Hi Cap,

I agree with the views of the others who responded to you and also wud like to add,

May be u do not have a pressure to close positions or there are not so many positions open in ur Organization to pressurize you. Else you would have known the value of a CV or reference and not have written such a mail. Today referral program is one of the key approaches to mobilize resources and naturally any one who has given a reference will tend to ask u for the feedback. When there are so many awaiting ur feedback which has gone to the level of irritating u and made u to send such a mail what u shud hav done is proactively given them the updates then n there.

For eg., once u recv a profile, c if it suits any of ur requirements if yes, write a mail to the person who had referred u, about the next step in the process and the suitability of the profile. Further, keep updating as and when they ask. Finally, if selected, u cud send a thank you mail (ofcourse he is gona get his reward / incentive, but still), if rejected also let them know proactively so that they take the interest to get u some more references. As stated in the beginning, currently u mite not have so many positions open but there mite cum a situation where u wud have to be behind them aggressively for references. Moreover, keep aside the reward / incentives for references, which mite not be the interest for reference in all cases, u need to respect their interests unless and otherwise it is not genuine. Believe me, today bigger Organizations struggle like anything to get resources. Portals are exhausted and squeezed out by everyone. References is one of key approaches today and that too from within the Organization who know ur Orgnization better and sometimes from the same competency or function who know the job better will refer suitable candidates which mite bring down ur burden to an extent. Hence tap this opportunity positively. Keep in mind ‘never burn any bridge that you crossed’.

Further, if any one just like that asks for a feedback when u pass by them or when u meet up out of ur work area, reply them with a smile saying that u need to get back to ur desk to dig out the feedback, do it for sometimes, then people will get the practice of asking for a feedback when u r at ur desk and which is the rite place. Rite?!!

Do not worry on what had happened. Every lesson has a cost.

Regds,

suba

Hi
Your motive is good. You are a straight forward person. But the letter is definitely an offending one. It could have been little polite, not to hurt any one. You may note that people in senior positions will definitely take you as a rude person and your mail as nonsensical.
The idea is to achieve whathever you want. Add politeness and not point blank mails.

Hi Capricevogue,
You have done a good job but it was too early. Well as a HR you are expected to me more polite. HR is a person who is known to all the employees in the firm.
I can empathise your problem as a co-hr, you could answer the employees with a small statement(with a smile saying mail me on this i shall get back to you) then and there when they have interepted you.
we all learn as we keep doing things. All the best

Hi caprice,
Thanx suba and all, :lol: :lol: :lol:
I also agree with the view of all above members, when u join any new organisation it is necessary to make some respective position in between others. U should not issue any warning notes or sending e-mails to everyone. First u should consult with ur team members and whether if ur getting irritate from others behaviour or questions u need to ask ur boss first before writing any kind of mail or should draft letter befor sending.
I think suba is right "Further, if any one just like that asks for a feedback when u pass by them or when u meet up out of ur work area, reply them with a smile saying that u need to get back to ur desk to dig out the feedback, do it for sometimes, then people will get the practice of asking for a feedback when u r at ur desk and which is the rite place."
and further I must say that we all learn as we keep doing things.
All the best
warm regards
