Question

As a new project manager in a rapidly growing organization, you have been asked to lead a project team for an important project. The scope of the project is not too broad, project time frames are somewhat on the tight side but definitely doable, and the budget is more than generous. In fact, you have been given the authority to hire as many people as you want for your project team. You estimate that 5 people would be about right for this type of project, 8 would provide a healthy amount of backup, and 10 could give you the resources to deliver an outstanding system in record time. What are some things you might want to keep in mind before making your decision on how many people to hire?

Explanation / Answer

The general purpose of recruitment is to provide a pool of potentially qualified candidates who meets the requirements.so while recruiting itself as a project manager i will keep the following points in my mind:
Determine the present and future requirements of the organization .
Begin identifying and preparing potential job applicants who will beappropriate candidates.
Induct outsiders with a new perspective to lead the company.
Infuse fresh blood at all levels of the organization.
so in this case based on project budjet and need i will prefer to recruite 10 people .because with these 10 resources i can deliver a great product with good quality on time.
in some negative cases if i recruite 10 people there may be chances that few people may not join in that senario i will get 8 people option which is a good back up .
in worst case min 5 resources will deffenetly join which is the min needed requirement.
apart from these thing resources dedication and passion towards work is the most important thing that i keep in my mind and their manageral skills as well
because for any organization growth employees should have qualities like passion,dedication,team work and stewardship etc..
