Purpose The purpose of this paper is to study the effect of corporate social responsibility (CSR) effectiveness on job seekers’ organizational attractiveness (JSA). Deriving inspiration from Carroll’s theory, the study specifically tries to measure the impact of CSR on JSA with the four dimensions pertaining to economics (PECO), pertaining to legal compliance (PLCO), pertaining to ethics (PETH) and pertaining to philanthropic (PPH). Furthermore, the paper also tries to examine the moderating role of company selection (COM SEL) done based on high or low CSR reputation and JSA. Design/methodology/approach Management and engineering students enrolled in premier institutions and universities of Western Odisha in India are surveyed for their perceptions of CSR and JSA. Purposive and convenience sampling are applied to collect data from 456 job seekers. Based on the analysis, the study proposes two main models (Models 1 and 2) wherein Model 1 tries to measure the effect of CSR on JSA and Model 2 checks the moderating effect of COM SEL on CSR and JSA. In addition, robustness of the study is tested using control variables (Models 3 and 4). Data is treated through SmartPLS 3.3 software. The structural equation modelling (partial least squares-SEM) method is applied to test the hypotheses and for further analysis. Findings The result reveals an interesting insight. There is a positive and significant effect of PECO, PLCO and PPH on JSA. Moreover, no such significant effect is observed between PETH and JSA. Further, the findings are contrary with respect to COM SEL, that partially moderates the effect of CSR on JSA. However, the results reveal that COM SEL has a substantial moderating effect on the PPH dimension of CSR and JSA. Practical implications The results highlight that CSR positively and significantly affects JSA in terms of PECO, PLCO and PPH, thereby emphasizing that organizations must be more focused on these perspectives of CSR. Further, though the results did not exhibit any significance with PETH, it is essential that organizations should strengthen the ethical aspects of CSR as well and align them with the CSR strategic actions. The study also confirms the moderating effect of COM SEL on PPH dimension of CSR and JSA, thereby supporting the philanthropic approach in this domain. Further, the organizations should foresee the philanthropic factor of CSR as a competitive advantage to attract potential job seekers. Originality/value This research attempts to contribute to CSR and HR literature in two ways. First, it is the first attempt to use PLS-SEM with an attempt to understand job seekers’ perception of CSR and JSA with Indian data consisting of students belonging to premier business management and engineering institutes. Second, the study is an attempt to empirically measure the moderating effect of COM SEL on JSA. To sum up, the study will provide insights to organizations to help craft CSR strategies for attracting more job seekers.

Este estudo tem como objetivo analisar a aplicação da Análise Fenomenológica Interpretativa (AFI) em pesquisas de Administração e suas contribuições. Realizou-se uma revisão de literatura tipo Síntese narrativa textual baseada em 52 artigos empíricos da área, publicados entre 2013 e 2022, obtidos da base Scopus com filtro Business, Management and Accounting. Os resultados indicam que a AFI fortalece a pesquisa qualitativa em Administração, revelando percepções, significados, aspectos emocionais, cognitivos e afetivos em fenômenos organizacionais a partir da perspectiva dos envolvidos, como empreendedores, líderes, trabalhadores, mulheres, minorias e outros. A análise das experiências proporciona discussões relevantes que sustentam teorias emergentes ou aprofundam a compreensão de conceitos em teorias estabelecidas, contribuindo para aprimorar práticas, processos, políticas e diretrizes organizacionais. Este estudo oferece ainda uma síntese completa sobre a aplicação da AFI na Administração, enriquecendo a compreensão metodológica na área.

We are amidst a noteworthy change with respect to the manner in which we make items, because of the digitization of assembling. This change is convincing to the point that it is being called Industry 4.0 to speak to the fourth insurgency that has happened in assembling. Industry 4.0 is flagging an adjustment in the conventional assembling scene. Otherwise called the Fourth Industrial Revolution, Industry 4.0 envelops three mechanical patterns driving this change: network, insight and adaptable robotization. Industry 4.0 portrays the developing pattern towards computerization and information trade in innovation and cycles inside the assembling business, including: The Internet of Things (IoT), The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), Cyber-physical Systems (CPS), Smart Manufacturing, Smart Factories, Cloud Computing, Additive Manufacturing, Big Data, Robotics, Cognitive Computing, Artificial Intelligence and Block chain and so forth. This mechanization makes an assembling framework whereby the machines in manufacturing plants are increased with remote network and sensors to screen and picture a whole creation cycle and settle on independent choices. In this paper we are worry about how aptitude and ability of human asset can be grown with the goal that we can conquer this pandemic circumstance effectively. Delicate abilities for taking care of these forthcoming new innovation inserted framework must be taken consideration and carefully instilled by human asset with the goal that simple smooth of efficiency just as hole crossing over of flexibly and request can be conceivable. Skill development should be considered as prioritizing factor for this.
