So the process to build the employee pool and finally making the best choice from candidates differs a lot. The report is presenting a portfolio of five different types of organizations, which manifest the customized process suitable for each organization.

It is likely that this crown prince of terror is currently buzzing around you. The dubious honor belongs to none other than the lowly mosMos--a fragile creature, whose bite infects millions with lethal diseases, such as malaria, dengue fever, filariasis, encephalitis etc. Bangladesh, a land of 113 types of mosMoses1, has long been a major victim of the mosMos vectored diseases mentioned above. A wide variety of mosMos deterring devices are in practice, ranging from the most popular d-allethrin based coils, DEET (N, N'-diethyl- n-toluamide) based sprays to electric mats and vaporizers. However, the fact that these devices are far from optimal triggers the need for an efficacious and potent solution to this ever-persisting torment. ActiGreen Bangladesh (AGB), a private limited company, enters the scene by introducing a pioneering spray – Mos-Quit, prepared from NEEM, a divine tree. Traditionally found chemical based killers and repellents are poisons that only kill, or ward off mosMoses for a meager period. In addition...
