Although temporary employees recruitment and selection facilitates effective screening of potential employees on permanent basis but the question is how does this take place in the public sector universities when it comes to the selection of permanent faculty members, this is main theme of this study to analyze the approaches of temporary selection and its impact on effectiveness of permanent selection. The data collection was made from the senior faculty members who had vast experience in the public sector universities. This study has identified that the temporary selections have influenced the right selection in two ways, the one these appointments were not based on merit and secondly these were preferred over permanent appointments as well. This is first such a study that has focused this phenomenon in non-English speaking countries, particularly in SAARC region of Asia.
