A specific case study of Tanzania Petroleum Development Corporation (TPDC) has been used in the course of this research.

Specifically the study sought to identify the recruitment and selection practices of TPDC; to investigate how the recruitment and selection practices at TPDC affect its performance; the effectiveness of the recruitment and selection practices of TPDC; to examine the challenges associated with the recruitment and selection process at TPDC and ways to help improve human resource planning and development. The study collected data through the use of questionnaires from fifty (50) respondents’ majority being staff members of TPDC. Among them ten (10) respondents were staff from Corporate Management department, selected from Human resource and Administration section and forty (40) were staff from other departments. The information from respondents was analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences whereby tables and graphs were used to present the data.
