“…Studies on the presence of women in academia show that female researchers are seriously underrepresented in the highest levels of hierarchy (Brouns, 2000;Rivera León et al, forthcoming;Timmers et al, 2010). This seems to be true in virtually every country that has been studied.…”

The paper specifies and performs a panel data econometric analysis based on a sample of Mexican researchers who are members of the National System of Researchers (SNI) of Mexico in the period 2002-13. It corrects for a selectivity bias: the existence of periods with no (or low-quality) publications, and endogeneity bias: promotion to higher academic ranks. It defines and implements counterfactual simulations to assess the magnitude of macro-impacts of existing gender gaps and illustrate the potential effects of a range of policy scenarios. The results show no significant gender gaps for an average SNI researcher. Moreover, after correcting for endogeneity and selectivity biases, the study finds that the average female researcher in public universities is around 8 percent more productive than her male peers, with most of the observed productivity being explained by gender differentials in the propensity to have periods of no (or low) quality publication. Barriers to promotion to higher academic ranks are highest among females in public research centers (PRCs). The stu...

“…In open competition the women perform better but due to the lack of transparency in selection procedures it has influenced the gender selection (Van Balen, 2001;Broun"s 2000). Husu (2000) has found in his study that in the open competition the women were selected twice as compare to the males.…”

Since the modern human civilization has become known, the struggle for growth and survival has remained a central focus of all times and it is inevitable to gain this without competitive and well balanced workforce. This lead the studies focus on human resource which has been identified as key resource for organizations, due to which the recruitment and selection become the basic activity for effective selection apart from any ethical, social and legal issues influence. A vast amount of research studies have been conducted in the field of recruitment and selection from various perspectives, due to which it has become difficult to contemplate and comment on its reasonability. This review study has analyzed the different perspectives of the recruitment and selection that has been much focused in earlier studies with a focus on a sole objective of this study, to understand how future studies may be focused to address the issue of generalization and conduct future studies in the field of recruitment and selection.

“…Dory (2010) has mentioned that many issues that are causing due to ambiguities are causing due to lack of clarity in the standardized procedures, which makes those who are in the power strong to make involvement that may affect the process. Researchers generally argue that in open competition the women perform better but due to the lack of transparency in selection procedures it has influenced the gender selection (Van Balen, 2001;Broun's 2000). Husu (2000) has found in his study that in the open competition the women were selected twice as compare to the males.…”

The basic purpose of this study is to analyze the various researches conducted by different researchers with multiple perspectives to identify their contribution in analyzing gender equality from the recruitment and selection perspective of the new employees. This study has classified these researchers under the various categories to understand them with proper objectivity, so that some valuable suggestion can be drawn, that may be helpful for further studies to reach the best possible solution of this most serious aspect of the gender equality. It has been concluded that a comprehensive study is needed to address the broader area of recruitment and selection, preferably in the government controlled institutions, because of its impact on macro level across the decision making levels in the country. This study is significant as it summarizes the studies under the various categories that not only are helpful for further analysis but also serve as guidelines to understand the new aspects which enable us to design a comprehensive study for finding an effective solution to this global concerning phenomenon.
