Hiring versus recruiting: What's the difference?

The act of hiring involves soliciting and reviewing applications for an open position. You might post an ad
on LinkedIn or other job posting sites, alerting the public that you’re looking for workers with specific
criteria. Essentially, hiring is seeking and evaluating candidates when you need to fill a specific role at
your company.

Recruiting, on the other hand, involves continuous research to find the best employees for your
company. It should happen on a regular basis, not just when you need to fill a position. It’s all about
building awareness of your company among talented professionals, and convincing them that your
organization is the right fit for their goals and skill set.
