Dear Members,
Recently I was given the challenge of recruiting a person for an upcoming project in a very short span of time, which I did it.
The only concern that I have as of now is that, the resource who was offered has expressed his inability to get a relieving letter from his current employer as the notice period served is very short.
My Manager wants him badly cos he is really suitable for the project.Now as a HR what is the right thing to do .... should I recruit him without his relieving letter????
or should I clearly tell my management that it is against the HR policies.....???
Incase I recruit him without his relieving letter what are the consequences I should be facing as a HR..............
Please advice me on this.............

Hi Sunitha,
If the candidate is that much important to your up coming project,give him some time to submit his releiving letter.But be clear when u give him time.
you can get a copy of his offer letter and payslip for our evidence that he is an employee of that concern.
get a written statement signed from the candidate stating that his offer will be declined if there is a delay in submitting the releiving letter.

1. Recently I was given the challenge of recruiting a person for an upcoming project in a very short span of time, which I did it.
First of all congrats for closing the position.
2. The only concern that I have as of now is that, the resource who was offered has expressed his inability to get a relieving letter from his current employer as the notice period served is very short.
In this case you can have his appointment letter and his salary slips for last 3 months. which can serve for the purpose proof of his employment and salary.
3. Now as a HR what is the right thing to do ....
Saving project is also a part of HR duty i think.
4. should I recruit him without his relieving letter????
Take the other documents and keep a note of the situation why he is not able to get relieving letter. Or get it signed from him the reason and the situation.
5. Incase I recruit him without his relieving letter what are the consequences I should be facing as a HR..............
If management is involved then, no such consequences.

Decide the Path ,
U want to go by Ethics
or
U want to go by Need
If u go by ethics, there will be difficulties now, but later thing will be much better
If you go by need, u have to violate the rule, u will sent a wrong message to other employees,
The Same will set a wrong example for future recruits.
U need fish for Life Long not for only one Day.
Sit & Understand, why the Manager needs him that much early.
analyse if anyone in the organisation has the capability to the same.
Do a Root Cause analysis.
Understand where the need is the Person or the Project to be completed.
If that Person can only do the work, Please buy his Notice Period.
Never take any person without Relieving Letter.
