Recruitment & Selection

All employment opportunities at National Paints are posted internally to provide existing employees, an opportunity
to advance in their respective careers. Aside from internal job announcements, opportunities which cannot be sourced

may find interest in joining National Paints.

National Paints is an Equal Opportunity employer. Any application is never used for limiting or excluding any
applicant from consideration for employment on the basis of Nationality, Religion, Caste or Sex.

Curriculum Vitae received are reviewed and shortlisted by recruitment team and undergo strict recruitment procedures
to verify if a candidate’s eligibility and to determine if the skills and qualification matches with the requirement that
National Paints indicated in the posted vacancy.

Internal Hiring Procedures Once a vacancy has been finalized by the Human Resource Department, Job posting
will be announced internally for employees to assess if skills and qualifications are well suited for the role.

At National Paints internal sources are primarily four –

a. Employee Referrals
b. Transfers
c. Promotions (through Internal Job Postings) and
d. Re-employment of ex-employees - Re-employment of ex-employees is one of the internal sources of
recruitment in which employees can be invited and appointed to fill vacancies in the concern. There are
situations when ex-employees provide unsolicited applications also. The Re – Employment strictly depends
on the past experiences of the Company with the Ex- Employee.

Internal recruitment at National Paints is aimed at increasing the employee’s productivity as their motivation level
increases.

To be eligible to apply for a posted job, an individual must be current, regular full-time employee and has completed
the probation period. Employees who wish to qualify must have performed proficiently for at least 90 calendar days
in their current designation. Eligible employees can only apply for those posted jobs for which they possess the
required skills, competencies, and qualifications. Employees who have a written warning on file, or are on probation
or suspension are not eligible to apply for posted jobs.

To apply for an open position, employees should fill an internal job application form to be submitted to their respective
supervisors for approval prior to submitting the application to the Human Resource department. Internal candidates
who qualify for the vacancy would then undergo an initial interview with the Supervisor of the vacancy an employee
is applying for. Finalist would then have another round of interview with the HR Department to determine the final
decision for hiring. The selected employee would then be notified by the Supervisor of the vacancy. Candidates who
did not qualify will then be provided feedback and development plan for future advancement and development.

National Paints recognizes the benefit of developmental experiences and encourages employees to discuss career plans
with their respective Supervisor. Supervisors should then provide encouragement and support employees' efforts to
gain experience and advance within the organization.
