The boom
in the Indian job market had resulted in the growth of the recruitment
industry and it was reported that 1,500 new recruitment agencies were
set up since 2004 to cater to the growing demand.
As a consequence of the rapid growth of the industry, the credentials
and capabilities of these agencies varied widely.
The issue of fake CVs highlighted concerns regarding the professional
practices and ethics of the recruitment agencies.
Industries which used the services of these agencies were concerned
about the negative perceptions the issue might create with customers
based in foreign countries. |
They felt that this problem, if unchecked, could negate
India’s status as a favorable destination for outsourcing of software and BPO
services. The Executive Recruiters Association (ERA), the association of the
Indian recruitment industry, expressed its regrets on this issue and promised
strict action against the erring member agencies.
ERA said that it had well defined code of ethics and principles to guide its
member agencies and their recruitment consultants. ERA also asked company
recruiters to avail the services of reputed recruitment agencies instead of
lesser known agencies as the monitoring of their work quality would be
difficult.
