REASON FOR SELECTION OF THIS TOPIC:
The financial sector is one of the booming and increasing leaps and bounce,
some of the experts say only 20% of Indian population is insured which means 80%Indian are not insured and therefore having a bright prospect of progress of this sector
where I too would like to build my career and be a part of success story.
The Financial consultants are another channel through which the company sales
its policy. It is really difficult to convince and sale a single policy but since these
consultants have their contacts which they can sale a single policy. Whereas I found
my interest in dealing, interacting and
Handling a team, because all this most of time park you in some critical zone which
becomes challenge for you and your responsibility becomes the critical situation or
problems.
IMPORTANCE TO THE COMPANY:

After interacting with companys marketing head I got to know that they have
many Financial Consultants but not getting the policies up to the expectations level of
the Company. Company is really interested in knowing if there is any mistake or
lacking somewhere in process of recruiting and or the criteria they have fixed for the
recruitment.
The ultimate purpose of giving me this topic was to revise its recruitment
policy/process.

aspects of the Financial Consultant within 60 days.
As stipend, money was not given it was difficult to continue the project work.
All the work was limited in some limited areas of Jamshedpur so the findings
should not be generalized.
The area of research was Jamshedpur; It was too vast an area to cover within 60days.

4.2 CONCLUSIONS & SUGGESTIONS
________________________________________________
CONCLUSIONS:
HDFC Standard Life, the insurance arm of HDFC is expected to go on stream.
Promoted by HDFC & Standard Life, already has good number of employees on board
and is recruiting Financial Consultants heavily to take the headcount to many more. It
is on the brim of increasing its client through its attractive schemes and offer.
The project opportunities provided was market segmentation and identifying
prospective clients in potential geographical location and for recruiting them as
financial consultant so to explore new Business Opportunity. Through this project, it
could be concluded that people are not much aware about the various benefit of being
Financial Consultant that are currently prevailing in the insurance industry. Insurance
was considered as unsought good which require hard core selling, but in changing
trend in income and people becoming financially literate, the demand for insurance is

increasing day by day. So, it is the company that first approaches gets its share of
reward. Proper after sale service can help the advisors to generate more business.
Gradually people are realizing the fact that insurance is not a necessary evil
but means to attain worry free life. This activity much attract unemployed people as for
them a source of income is a great help for developing there future. Companys
promotional activities for recruiting Financial Consultant are also very less.
So, at last the conclusion is that there is
tough competition ahead for the company from its major competitors in terms of
number of Financial Consultants. Last but not the least I would like to thank HDFC
SLIC for giving me an opportunity to work in the field of Financial Consultant. I hope
the company finds my analysis relevant.
SUGGESTIONS:
Finally some recommendations for the company are as fallows:-
