Hi !!!
i believe that job horoscopes is a good idea bcoz it helps in identifying the personal traits and soft skills of a person . it is very easy to get an inner view about the person and will definitely help in identifying and matching the skills required for the job wid the skill sets of the individual...

Hi Sujata
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
As Sanjeev mentioned Horoscope is for those who have belief in that.
It is the skill set which should determine the employability of a person and not his/her horoscope.
I guess no company would be ready to look for the horoscope of its client and also don't want the client to do the same.
Then, how one should be keen on a candidate's horoscope?!!!

Hi Sujata,
Even I had a similar experience in my First Company's interview.I was also asked about my Zodiac sign,but this did not have any impact on my selection.
In my opinion I feel they must have asked casually to make us feel comfortable while interviewing.

Dear all,
In general view, let us not state " I BELIEVE" or "I GUESS".
In practice, if people follow, do they have any justification on that.
after all Astrology is to predict future based on birth details.
let this forum enlighten those who believe/feel/thing we need to recruit/hire people based on ASTROLOGY.

This discussion remind me those few lines of one of the famous song from Rangeela,
"Maathey ya haatho pe; Chand ya taaron pe;
Kismat ko dhundey per khud mein kya hai...yeh na jaaney;
Khud pe hi agar hum ko yaken ho...mushkilen raha ki aasan hon"

Astrology, as mentioned in Munna Bhai MBBS...those astrologers cannot even predict their future and fortune how they can help you.
So, selection based on astrology is a bad idea and don’t have any future in Management or at least in HR. Those who believe can continue to believe in this and those who don’t should not bother about it.

Hi Sujata,
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2007
Nice thought ya :D if companies start hiring on the basis of Horoscopes and zodiac signs then we recruiters should search in the job portals for capricon people and geminian people and we can find the not resumes in portals but jatka chakras right.Once imagine the world working like that... :lol:

Hi,
If this is going to be the new HR trend then all Job portals will introduce new category for Horoscope wise search, isn't it.
Job Descriptions will have zodiac sign requirement, HR Horoscope Specialist post will be created.
HRM courses will introduce a special paper on Horoscope.

Hi all
A very Happy New Year to all of you.
Regarding horoscopes & recruiting, well........ believe it or not but there are a few companies which try and match the recruit's hproscope with the company's at the time of recruitment.
I can say this as I was once interviewd by one such company ( no names). During my telephonic interview, besides the regular questions I was asked about my birth date, time, place etc. I was told that matching my horoscope with the company's was one of the selection criterias.
My personal view is that horoscopes are not the most logical & scientific way of recruitment. However there are companies which use graphology as well during recruiting, which is as illogical.

Hi Sujata and Bindya,
I beg to disagree with you. Thought I believe a lot in astrology, I feel that considering your horoscope in recruitment will hamper the qualitative aspects of a candidate. As more focus would be given to the Stars rather than the person's attitude and qualification.
I feel it would lead to some sort of biasness too.
