Vasu is a hard-working employee in the organisation. He has been working as a junior clerk for the last five years. As Srinath, the senior clerk retired, he expected to fill the vacant position. But instead of vertically shifting Vasu, the company appointed Raman as a senior clerk through a placement agency. Vasu felt demotivated and frustrated.

Explanation:

The situation highlights how the appointment of an outsider (Raman) for the senior clerk position led to dissatisfaction among existing staff like Vasu. When companies hire externally rather than promoting deserving internal employees, it can demotivate existing employees who expect career growth within the organisation.

Why other options are incorrect:

Lengthy process (Option A): Although external recruitment can be time-consuming, this option doesn't fit the situation described.
Danger of inbreeding (Option C): This refers to hiring only from within the organisation, which is not the case here.
Competition spirit is hampered (Option D): External recruitment often enhances competition, not hampers it.

Conclusion:

Hiring externally without promoting deserving internal employees can dissatisfy existing staff and affect their motivation and loyalty. Therefore, the correct answer is B: Dissatisfaction among existing staff.
