Abstract

The purpose of this research is to characterize the impact of applicant quality and recruiting time on current practices in covid-19. The data for this research came from a questionnaire survey. Human resource (HR) specialists, HR recruiters, and talent acquisition specialists from 40 companies in the Noida area of the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh responded to the survey. In order to learn more about the role that applicant quality and recruiting time had in shaping recruitment strategies in covid-19, a questionnaire was developed. Smart-PLS was used for data analysis. (v. 3.3.9). Forty people from various companies participated in the survey. Ninety-two percent of interviewers said they thought candidates communicated well through video chat, and the same percentage said they thought virtual interviews should be given in the future. Smart-PLS (v. 3.3.9) software was used to analyses the responses of 25 executives, 10 managers, and 5 heads. Cronbach's alpha and composite reliability cutoffs for positive results are set at 0.7; this indicates that the Quality of Applicants (QA) and Time (T) Involved in the Recruitment Process significantly impacted Recruitment Practices (RP) in covid-19. During covid 19, participants noted that the virtual interview process allowed them to save time and choose candidates who were both qualified and efficient.
