For any organization recruitment involves developing and maintaining a effective and efficient
team. A good recruitment strategy wills minize the waste of time and money spent on extensive
training and development for unqualified employees.
Recruitment types explain how an organization reaches out to potential job seekers.
Recruitments will use a variety of methods to select sources, screens, shortlists and resources
according to the needs of the organization.
Internal sources of recruitment are readily available to an organization. Internal recruitment are
basically three main categories transfers, promotions and re-employment of former employees.
Promotion:
Transfer:
Job transfer occur when an employee is moved from one job to other position that is reactively
equal in pay responsibility and organizational level. (Keith Davis)
Employees referrals:
Employees of current companies have the ability to contact their friends and family for
employment. they are well aware of the corpate culture, working conditions and job
requirements and are more likely to hire suitable acquaintances. Organizational staff referrals are
encouraged as this can save cost and time.
This means that a recruitment manager will hold an open job position only for existing
employees. applicants must be employees who have worked for the company for a certain period
of time. accordingly, external candidates will not be able to apply for the post.
Ability to retain the best people – Ability to obtain employees with a wide range of Experience
in recruiting internal employees.
Cost reduction – ability to reduce the extra cost to the company in recruiting employees in the
company internal recruitment.
Receiving experienced people – Receiving more experienced staff in re-hiring employees and
retired employees.
Working longer – In internal recruitment when recruiting employees within the company, they
prefer to work longer hours.

the workface is strong and the company has the company an opportunity for growth
.
No new ideas can introduce – When recruiting employees within the company they have a
lower rate of entry into new ideas.
Limited choice – a company can have several qualified people and only one person which a
perfect fit for an open position will be selected.
Increasing training cost- a current employee is suitable for new role but the candidates have all
the qualities and they do not need training but with external recruitment it allows a new
employee to be a candidate with all the skill experience and qualifies require. However, an in
house recruiter is not allows to taken on all the responsibilities and perform an effective role
from day one.it takes time to give them a proper understanding of their service
Advertisement-
Job vacancies are published in various print and electronic media. This is one of the most
common methods of external recruitment advertising uses the advertising system to attract
qualified and experienced people. this external recruitment method is used when qualified and
experienced employees are not abstained from other sources.in general most senior positions in
an organization are filled by this methodology.

of compititation exchange and interaction between for employees locking for employees the
employee searching of word is it imperative accept of employment and financing job.

The most common method of external recruitment is done by labor contractors who are
employed with the company or have a contract to supply workers to the company to complete a
specific type of work. This method is used to recruit unskilled and semi-skilled employees.
Casual callers -
Recommendation -
Applicants will be introduced by friend and relatives under this external recruitment in the
workplace, many employees are engaged is small scale work and have knowledge of the
background of future employees, so such persons are retained in their workplace. therefore,
employees are recruited through external recruitment.

levels, thereby increasing the chances of building candidates with maximum potential.
