EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Before an organization can fill a job vacancy, it must find people who not only are

qualified for the position but also want the job. Recruitment refers to organizational

activities that influence the number and types of applicants who apply for a job and

whether the applicants accept job that are offered. Thus recruitment directly related to

human resource planning and selection.

Definition:

Recruitment defined by Flippo as a “process of searching for prospective employees and

stimulating them to apply for job in the organization. As per Yoder a process to discover

the sources of manpower to meet the requirement of staffing schedule and to employ

effective measure for attracting that manpower in adequate number to facilitate effective

selection of an efficient working force , thus the purpose of recruitment is to locate

sources of manpower to meet job requirement and job specifications”.

I have done my project at India Infoline for 50 days. The project included recruitment and

selection of candidates for two posts ," Team Leaders and Financial Sales Consultants".

The procedure of recruitment was carried out by inviting candidates from various post

graduate colleges of pune as well as consultancies. The process included contacting

institutes, forwarding them company profile, inviting resumes of interested candidates,

short listing, filling up of application blank , conducting GD, PI ,and finally selecting the

appropriate candidates.

The main objective of carrying this study was to get a first hand knowledge of the of the

HR industry and in general.

2.3 PRODUCT PROFILE:

Equities:

Indiainfoline provided the prospect of researched investing to its clients, which was hitherto restricted only to the institutions. Research for the retail investor did not exist prior to Indiainfoline. Indiainfoline leveraged technology to bring the convenience of trading to the investor’s location of preference (residence or office) through computerized access. Indiainfoline made it possible for clients to view transaction costs and ledger updates in real time.

Commodities:

Indiainfoline’s extension into commodities trading reconciles its strategic intent to emerge as a one-stop solutions financial intermediary. Its experience in securities broking has empowered it with requisite skills and technologies. The Company’s commodities business provides a contra-cyclical alternative to equities broking. The Company was among the first to offer the facility of commodities trading in India’s young commodities market (the MCX commenced operations only in 2003). Average monthly turnover on the commodity exchanges increased from Rs 0.34 bn to Rs 20.02 bn. The commodities market has several products with different and non-correlated cycles. On the whole, the business is fairly insulated against cyclical gyrations in the business.

Mortgages:

During the year under review, Indiainfoline acquired a 75% stake in Money tree Consultancy Services to mark its foray into the business of mortgages and other loan products distribution. The business is still in the investing phase and at the time of the acquisition was present only in the cities of Mumbai and Pune. The Company brings on board expertise in the loans business coupled with existing relationships across a number of principals in the mortgage and personal loans businesses. Indiainfoline now has plans to roll the business out across its pan-Indian network to provide it with a truly national scale in operations.

opening of the sector in 1999-2000, a number of private sector insurance service

providers commenced operations aggressively and helped grow the market.

2.4 ORGANIZATION STRUCTURE OF INDIA INFOLINE:

The company structure deal with the total strength of the company as well as the details

about each and every person’s working details in that particular company. The

organization structure is of two types. They are as follows:

1. CLASSICAL OR TALL TYPE:

When one superior controls less number of sub-ordinates, say 3 to 4 subordinates,

who in turns control other 3 to 4 sub-ordinates, we get a tall structure with many layers of

managers. This structure is called as the tall or classical or pyramid structure. Generally,

this structure involves seven layers. Due to this the communication between the top

management and the employees is not very frequent and therefore creates a gap between

8

Page 9: 0703022 Recruitment and Selection

the same. In this type of organization, the cost remains high as in this structure the

organization has to provide each and every thing or one can say the facilities to all the

employees either they are at top level or lower level.

2. FLAT OR NEW TYPE: In the flat structure, one superior control a large number of sub-ordinates, say 5 to

6, who in turns control other 5 to 6 sub-ordinates given rise to a flat structure. Training in

the flat structure is relatively weak because there are more number of people. The degree

of control is loose because of more number of people. The advantages in having this type

of structure are in this case the decision making is very fast because everybody is added

to the time. Besides this the communication between the top management and the lower

employees becomes much easier. India info line followed the same structure at work

place. In the branch where we did our project, the main head of that branch was Mr.

Vikrant Mahajan. He was the territory manager of the company. The sales managers, who

are three in the number, were controlled by the territory manger that is Mr.Vikrant

Mahajan. Further, these sales managers controls and guide the various team leaders of the

company which in turn controls the working of the various financial services consultants.

This can be shown as per the following diagram:

Fig: The organization structure of India info line.

Although this method is also somehow expensive as each and every person at work place is given with the same facilities and amenities that the head of the department or branch manager is having. And in this type of structure getting the feedback or response of the employees on some decision or implementation becomes very easy and as per that they can modify the structure or working condition of the work place. Also the employees remain very motivated as they consider themselves as an important part of the organization.

9

Page 10: 0703022 Recruitment and Selection

In this way, it is confirmed that the company follows the flat organization structure in order to avoid all the problems that occur due to the miscommunication between the top management people and the workers there.

CHAPTER-4

THEORITICAL BACKGROUND

4.1 Recruitment:

Recruitment refers to the process of finding possible candidates for a job or

function, usually undertaken by recruiters. It also may be undertaken by an

employment agency or a member of staff at the business or organization looking

for recruits. Advertising is commonly part of the recruiting process, and can occur

through several means: through online, newspapers, using newspaper dedicated to

job advertisement, through professional publication, using advertisements placed in

windows, through a job center, through campus graduate recruitment programs, etc.

Suitability for a job is typically assessed by looking for skills, e.g.

Communication skills, typing skills, computer skills. Evidence for skills required for

a job may be provided in the form of qualifications (educational or professional),

experience in a job requiring the relevant skills or the testimony of references.

Employment agencies may also give computerized tests to assess an individual's

"off-hand" knowledge of software packages or typing skills. At a more basic level

written tests may be given to assess innumeracy and literacy. A candidate may also

be assessed on the basis of an interview. Sometimes candidates will be requested

to provide a résumé (also known as a CV) or to complete an application form to

provide this evidence.

SELECTION:

Selection Process is concerned with the development of selection policies and procedures

and the evaluation of potential employees in terms of job specifications This process

includes the development of application blanks, valid and reliable tests interview

techniques, employee referral systems, evaluation and selection of person in terms of job

specifications, the making up of final recommendations to the line management and the

sending of offers and rejection letters.

14

Page 15: 0703022 Recruitment and Selection

Placement is concerned with the task of placing an employee in job for which he is best

fitted, keeping in view the job requirements, his qualifications and personality needs.

4.2 FACTORS AFFECTING RECRUITMENT:

1 The size of organization

2 The employment conditions in the community where the organization is located.

3 The effect of past recruiting efforts which shows the organization ability to locate

4 And keep good performing people.

5 The working condition, salary and benefits package offered by the organization.

6 The rate of growth of organization.

7 The level of seasonality of operation and future expansion and production

programmes and the culture, economic and legal factors, etc.

4.3 POINTS OF RECRUITMENT:

1. Be clear about what you want - Recruiting the right person starts with a detailed

job description and personal specification. It also involves following a recruitment

process that produces a suitable candidate at a minimum cost to the business.

2. Use a thorough recruitment process - The more complex the job, the more

sophisticated recruitment process needs to be. However, as a minimum, the interview

process should include: at least two interviews, a psychometric assessment and a

thorough reference check.

3. Advertise carefully - Advertisements should be clear, to the point and bespoke

consultant such as Executive Search is frequently more effective than advertising under

your own name.

4. Interview thoroughly - Interviews should be highly structured and based on proven

15

Page 16: 0703022 Recruitment and Selection

methodologies. They should reveal the levels of competency in key areas,

appropriateness of experiences, personality strength and weaknesses and integrity.

Professional, thorough and consistent interviewing requires a high level of training and

coaching. The team at Executive search has these skills.

5. Always recruit the right person for the job - Recruitment should be seen as a

'rejection process' as much as a 'selection process'. Don't be tempted to pick the best of a

bad bunch'. You (or your company) will pay dearly in the long run!

6. Pre screening saves time -executive Search will screen likely candidates with a

simple telephone interview before deciding who to invite for the first face-to-face

interview. This will pay you dividends in terms of time and money saved.

7. Don't do all the talking - When you actually meet the candidates, let the them tell

you about their background and achievements. The more you talk, the more you will like

the candidate, so, keep quiet, don't tell him or her about the job, the package, the

company, or you, until they have told you about themselves.

8. Remember training & development - Look for development needs; the perfect person

rarely exists. Identify what initial training will be required and ask yourself; how much

you will need to invest in the candidate and whether he or she is worth that investment.

9. Never over sell the job - Over exceeding expectations, leads to frustrations later.

Honesty about the role is always the best policy.

10. Background & reference checks - Research indicates that around 90% of new

employees never have references taken up. Background checks should be as thorough, as

possible and should include employment history, medical checks, and where appropriate;

character references.

11. Assess appropriately - Psychometric assessments are plentiful, but can be a

16

Page 17: 0703022 Recruitment and Selection

minefield if inappropriately used or administered. Carefully selected assessments are

valuable tools in the selection process, but not to the exclusion of a structured interview.

Individuals should be selected on the basis of past performance, competence and

personality.

4.4 RECRUITMENT PROCESS FLOW CHART:

4.5 Employee Recruitment: How to Hire the Right People:

 Recruitment of good employees is a key survival issue in business today. Business will

go someplace else if you don’t offer good service. You need to think more competitively

about recruitment. It can’t be an after thought, something you think about when

somebody leaves; it has to be something you do on a proactive basis — just as you

develop a business plan or marketing plan for the year.

     All across the country it is difficult to hire good people today. The market is very

tight, especially for entry-level jobs. Thus we need to think differently about how we

source good candidates — how we even get good people to come to our doors.

 Targeting: Recruiting is a lot like marketing. We’re marketing jobs to people and we

need to think about who our target customer is. Have we been focusing on the wrong

market? Is there another way to look at the ideal employee for the business? We need to

identify all the appropriate target markets for recruitment — such as older persons. Then

we need to use targeted messages and targeted activities to reach those people.

     How can you attract those individuals? Look at the influencer market — parents,

teachers, counselors, organizations who may influence prospective employees.

 There are two kinds of job seekers: 1) motivated, i.e. unemployed, desperate for a job,

and 2) window shoppers who already have a job. Most newspaper ads attract the

motivated job seeker, as opposed to ones happily employed. Thus, you need to shift your

thinking to placing ads that say what you have to offer — the benefits of working for you.

Make advertising messages so compelling they draw people who really weren’t looking

for a job.

     Try more intrusive methods, such as direct mail. Target-mail it to a demographic

list of people in certain categories and/or physical locations. If your targeted candidate is

someone who already has a job, you need to be pretty lenient about the times of the day

you will accept applications.

17

Page 18: 0703022 Recruitment and Selection

     Think about using clip-out coupons as a form of advertising. Persons who reply

can simply indicate position interest and basic address information. Follow up by phone.

Create a positive recruitment image. If your employment ad is in the newspaper week

after week, people will start thinking your organization is such a bad place to work that it

can’t keep people. Watch the frequency of the ads you place in any one media. You may

be desperate for help — but you don’t want to appear that way.

     Any message on an outside reader board that says “Help Wanted” sounds extremely

desperate. One fast-food location solved that with a message that read, “Place your name

on our employment waiting list.” It helped them actually generate a waiting list.

One of the most inexpensive ways to turn around your image as an employer is through

public relations campaigns. Send a news release to the media when your employees earn

an award, are involved in some charities or other noteworthy activities. Publicize

something you are doing that’s out of the ordinary.

     There are great programs for any targeted group you would like to attract. There are

groups that can help place older adults, people with disabilities, displaced homemakers

and dislocated workers.

     Work with high schools and vocational schools. Get involved with the high school

distributive education classes or vocational clubs. Offer to speak to a class. The more

they know who you are, the more likely they are to get good students from that source.

     Contact newcomer groups like “Welcome Wagon” and realtors who may be moving

people into your community.

     Employee referral is still the most effective recruiting resource you can use. It tends to

replicate the current makeup of your current workforce. Offer some kind of incentive for

employee referrals: a special prize or individual bonus. Some offer trips, VCRs, laptop

computers — you name it. Publicize it on your employee bulletin board and in payroll

stuffers, and talk about it in staff meetings.

Whenever you hire someone new, ask them for the names of three to five people they know who might like to work for you. Get their phone numbers and call them.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK DONE

JOB ANALYSIS:

The project duration was for 2 months, and we did it under the guidance of Mr.

PANKAJ SHUKLA. We were suppose to recruit different people from different institutes for the post of financial service consultant as well as team leader , for the marketing profile job. We were told to target only the Maharashtra state for the

purpose of recruitment.

20

Page 21: 0703022 Recruitment and Selection

JOB ANALYSIS:

PREAPARING THE DATABASE OF COLLEGES AND CONSULTANCIES : The

list of the institutes pursuing masters in management were prepared with the help of

internet. Since our internship was held in the months of May and June, we could not

approach institutes pursuing bachelor degree as they were closed down due to summer

vacations . The list was for Pune and the in and around areas of Pune. We then

segregated the number of institutes amongst us.

I was assigned 15 management institutes of Pune region.

Apart from institutes we also contacted 50 consultancies in Pune region, out of which i

undertook 8.

We also had a visit to Job Fairs held during the month of May and June.

CONTACTING THE INSTITUTES AND CONSULTANCIES AND FORWARDING

THEM COMPANY PROFILE :

I then contacted the respective colleges by getting their numbers through internet.

After talking to the Placement Head of the college, I then forwarded our comany profile

along with job profile of the required vacancies. For the post of financial sales

consultants, students of marketing specialization applying for summer internship were

considered. For the post of team leaders students, students applying for final placements

with marketing specialization were considered (with the condition that they must have

done their summer internship in sales profile, preferably any financial product.

Consultancies were also also contacted for recruiting the candidates for the designation of

team leaders.

SCREENING OF RESUMES OF INTERESTED CANDIDATES:

After approaching the respective institutes, i then received the resumes of the interested

candidates (generally the soft copies).As the requirement was for two different posts,

different factors were taken into consideration for the purpose of screening of resumes.

21

Page 22: 0703022 Recruitment and Selection

These are discussed as below:

Team Leaders:

For the designation of Team Leaders, I looked into the following factors for the purpose

of screening of resumes:

PRESENTATION OF RESUME :- The overall presentation of the resume was

looked upon. Resumes with grammatical errors, bad layout, informal presentation

were rejected.

AUTHENTICITY:- In case of a hard copy, authenticity was checked by assuring

that the resume was duly signed by the candidate.

AGE :- The minimum age required for the candidate to apply for the above post

was 21years.

WORK EXPERIENCE:- The most important factor to be looked upon was the

work experience of the candidate. If non-mba, .the candidate needed to have

minimum work experience of at least 2-3years in the field of selling any financial

product, preferably insurance. An mba graduate , without any work experience,

was required to have done his/her summer internship in selling only financial

product, preferably insurance.

NATIVE CITY:- The native city of the candidate was also looked into so as to

find out if the company had any office out there in that city. If the city matched,

then the candidate could be considered for transfer.

SPECIALISATION:- The M.B.A graduate should be pursuing his masters in only

in Marketing specialization.

EXTRA CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES:- Since the requirement was for a

"Leader", leadership qualities were tried to be assessed through the resume

forwarded. It was preferred if the candidate had held any position of Captain of

any team or had organized any event on his own, or any other activity that

demonstrated his leadership.

FINANCIAL SALES CONSULTANTS:

I looked into the following factors while screening the resumes for the post of FSCs:

in Marketing specialization.

NATIVE CITY:- The native city of the candidate was also looked into so as to

find out if the company had any office out there in that city. If the city matched,

then the candidate could be considered for transfer.

ACADEMIC QUALIFICATIONS:- Candidates having at least 55% throughout

were proffered.

EXTRA CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES:- The pre- requisite requirement for the

candidates applying for this post was to have excellent communication skills. This

was assessed by looking into the extra curricular activities performed the

candidate. Candidates with active participation in debates and in similar events

where strong communication skills were required, were considered.

HOBBIES:- As the post of FSCs included massive interaction with customers, the

person of an extrovert personality was proffered. The personality of the candidate

was tried to be judged through his/her hobbies. A person interested in outdoor

games, giving performances( such as dancing ets) or any other activities involving

interaction with people generally reflected the traits of an extrovert personality.

On the other hand, person inserted in indoor sports and activities( reciting poems,

painting etc) generally reflected the traits of an introvert personality.

LINGUISTIC PREFERENCES:- Candidates familiar with the local language

were also given preference.

SHORTLISTING OF THE RESUMES

I then short listed the appropriate candidates by preparing an Evaluation Sheet. The sheet

included the parameters, important for the applied post (as discussed above). This helped

in short listing of the resumes. After short listing ,I submitted the evaluation sheet to our

23

Page 24: 0703022 Recruitment and Selection

Sales Manager for approval. The specimen of the evaluation sheet has been attached at

the end.

INFORMING THE SHORTLISTED CANDIDATES AND FIXING DATE FOR

INTERVIEW

After gaining approval from our Sales Manager regarding the short listing of the resumes

of the candidates, I then prepared the list of short listed candidates. Thereafter, I informed

the candidates by either mailing the list to the respective institutes or by contacting the

candidates personally( incase of candidates applying off-campus). The date and time for

carrying out the selection process was then decided upon with mutual consent.

FILLING UP OF APPLICATION BLANK

The short listed candidates were then called upon the decided date and time and were

then asked to fill up application blank. Hereupon, the candidates gave their personal

details along with academic qualifications and work experience. It helped to cross-check

with the information provided in the resume by the candidate. It also gave an insight into

the family background of the candidate and also provided the details of the persons to be

referred to.

CONDUCTING GROUP DISCUSSION.

I then conducted a Group Discussion round with the candidates. A group of generally 6-

8students was formed for the discussion. The topic given for GD was either related to

current affairs or any other topic related to Sales/Marketing. I prepared an Evaluation

Sheet for the the purpose of assessing the candidates. The candidates were assessed on

five parameters ,as given below:

Communication Skills:- Communication skills were assessed on the basis of

fluency, accent, tone, manner of speaking and convincing power.

Content :- I also assessed the candidate on the basis of his/her

familiarity with the topic. More marks were given for facts and figures and

examples.

Body Language:- I also marked the candidates on their body language

24

Page 25: 0703022 Recruitment and Selection

which included the way they sat, usage of gestures. Their dress up was also taken

into account.

Team Spirit:- This was assessed to know how good the candidate was

at managing human relationships. This I assessed by seeing whether the candidate

is allowing others to speak or n

not, by checking aggression in his tone, how well he

handled the arguments.

Self-Confidence:- Self-confidence of the candidates was assessed on the

basis of number of times he spoke, whether he took the the initiative to start the

GD or conclude it .

If any candidate did not get a chance to speak, he/she was purposely asked to put his/her

views on the topic at the end.

The candidates were then marked on these individual parameter son the scale of 1-5. I

submitted the evaluation sheet to our Sales Manager for approval. Candidates having

scores more than 17 out of 25 qualified for the PI round.

CONDUCTING PERSONAL INTERVIEW

For the designation of Team Leaders, I took the first PI round of the candidates. The short

listed candidates were qualified for 2nd PI round which was usually at taken by our Sales

Manager or any other concerned senior authority.

For the designation of FSC, only one PI round was conducted, solely by me.

Though the PI round was a two-way communication round, I spoke less and encouraged

the candidate to speak the most.. I tried my best to put the candidates at ease and to make

them fully comfortable started off with the interview with some light chat like asking the

candidate to speak something about himself and about his family background. This

helped me to check his communication skills and his confidence. Details about family

background provided me an insight about the native place, family culture, his own

responsibilities towards family. To some extent it also helped in judging his behaviour

and his basic need for the job I then asked questions related to his/her hobbies to allow

him/her to speak more. This further allowed me to judge his/her as a person .I then asked

25

Page 26: 0703022 Recruitment and Selection

the candidate about his strengths and asked to support them with examples. This helped

me to judge whether the candidates strengths matched with those required for the job

profile. For working in insurance sector one needed to have good communication skills,

should be adaptable, capable of handling stress, managing time and good at building

relationships. I aslo asked the candidate about his weaknesses and then asked him as what

he was doing to improve upon them . This helped me to judge his attitude, sense of

responsibility and level of seriousness. All these questions also helped me to find out as

such how much the candidate knows about himself. I asked the candidate about his

knowledge regarding the company and the reason he wanted to join our company. This

helped me to judge how interested the candidate was in the company and his urge to

join .If I was interviewing for the post of Team Leader , I asked him summer internship

based questions. If the candidate had done his internship in insurance sector then I asked

him insurance-product related questions to check his knowledge. I also inquired about the

total amount of sales made by him in rupees and also the number of customers made by

him. I also asked him other project details such as his work timings, difficulties faced by

him and how he overcame them. These details helped me to judge his adaptability and

ability to handle pressures. If the candidate was having work experience then he was

asked about his job profile including his reason for switching over . In between I also

discussed about his Extra Curricular activities and asked about his experience. I

congratulated him for any achievements made to keep the atmosphere less tensed. I also

asked him questions related to sales marketing. I also asked the candidates some

situational based questions regarding selling. Then I tried to put some questions to check

the candidate's retain ability in the company such as by asking his future plans. I asked

the candidate what were his expectations from the company. I then explained him the job

profile, CTC and cleared all his queries. At last I thanked him for applying to the

company.

7. During this process of recruitment we took interview of the candidates

available, short listed them, and the short listed candidate were called up for the

training which was to be conducted at ICICI, the student were suppose to fill the

monitory form.

26

Page 27: 0703022 Recruitment and Selection

8 During this course of training the selected candidate were given full

knowledge about the all products for which they were suppose to do the

marketing.

9 The selected candidate were totally molded perfectly to perform at there

best on the field. The next very aim of this project was to learn more

about corporate presentation which is a regular phenomena to be

performed within the organization. “CORPORATE PRESENTATION”

means presentation in a more professional manner.

10 In the context of our project we were to perform presentation in front of

the whole management i.e.; the the member of the of the institute . during

the presentation we were made to introduce our self and speak about the

company profile, campus placement, more about the job requirement. We

were made to introduce our self and the company details i.e.; profile,

campus placement, more about the job requirement.

We were suppose to be well prepared for the presentation in every context i.e.; well communication, well dressed up (we were suppose to wear formal uniform), we were to answer as many question asked by the audience, as we were told by our company not to get frustrated or irritated during the course of the presentation. The presentation was to prepared well in advance as a small mistake can be a of negative sign for the company. So every thing was to be prepared well in advance.

Bachelors (Graduation colleges) or MBA colleges within Maharashtra wings are the

methods through which we collected the data regarding the recruitment in the colleges:

29

Page 30: 0703022 Recruitment and Selection

1. Making the list of graduation based colleges in Pune: First of all, we collected the

names of the various colleges that were running the courses of graduation in Pune

only. After that we called up the placement coordinator or the principal of the

college and asked them for the appointment for presentation. During this

collection of data we searched on the internet for the contact numbers of the

various colleges. But we were supposed to target the whole of the Maharashtra,

and in this way we covered only one district of Maharashtra i.e. Pune. So, in order

to cover the other districts we chose an another option that was :

2. We contacted just dial mobile yellow pages services in order to get the addresses

and contact numbers of those colleges which were not in Pune but in the other

parts of Mahrashtra. In this way we got the addresses and contact details of many

colleges and thereafter we called the placement coordinators and principals of the

respective colleges.

3. Making the list of various consultancies: In order to have the contact details of

the consultancies, we called up the consultancies again. There we got the names

of the consultancies and contact numbers of the concerned persons there. We had

the Conversations with them. But we did not talk about the cost per individual or

charges that were charged by the company. The charges and everything that was

related to the money

4. It was handled by the seniors itself by listening to their talks with the various

consultancies we get to know about the negotiations that was to be done at that

time.

5. We got registered ourselves as recruiters at various job sites at internet like

monster India, times groups, naukri.com etc. out of these sites only one site got

back and responded back and it was times group. They sent me a number of

students who had experience in insurance field and were interested in marketing

profile job also But unfortunately, we were bound to the Maharashtra only and the

candidates were out of the Maharashtra. So, we collected the data through the

30

SUGGESTIONS

1) Internal recruitment sources like employee referrals, past employees etc if used

for recruiting may result in getting eligible candidates at low cost.

2) Proper care has to be taken to be taken to avoid errors that distort the interview.

3) Physical examination if conducted would avoid further difficulties regarding that.

4) A periodic audit of the selection programmed if conducted would result in

effective evaluation of the selection programmed.

5) Preference on the basis of sons of soil should be given to a certain percentage

because the company could take advantage of his local language knowledge. It

increases the corporate image too.

52

Page 53: 0703022 Recruitment and Selection

the insurance company whereby 20% recruits turns out to be the winners and the rest

80% are looser who are soon terminated.
