2. RERCRUITMENT?
Recruitment refers to the process of identifying, attracting,
interviewing, selecting, hiring and onboarding employees. In
other words, it involves everything from the identification of a
staffing need to filling it.
Depending on the size of an organization, recruitment is the
responsibility of a range of workers. Larger organizations may
have entire teams of recruiters, while others only a single
recruiter. In small outfits, the hiring manager may be responsible
for recruiting. In addition, many organizations outsource
recruiting to outside firms. Companies almost always recruit
candidates for new positions via advertisements, job boards,
social media sites, and others.

3. SOURES OF RECRUITMENT-

4. INTERNAL RECRUITMENT-
Internal recruiting is the process of filling vacancies within a business
from its existing workforce. This is unlike external recruiting, when a
business looks to fill vacancies from outside. In a year where the
recruitment landscape has looked very different, internal recruiting can be
a great way to fill roles, fast.
Companies today use internal recruitment to fill roles in their
business that are best suited to having an insider’s view or knowledge, as
well as encourage loyalty and a sense of progress for employees. Internal
recruiting is an important aspect of any business as it can save time,
money and resources when compared to recruiting externally.

6. EXTERNAL RECRUITMENT-
The External Sources of Recruitment mean hiring people from outside the
organization. In other words, seeking applicants from those who are external to the
organization.
There are several methods for external recruiting. The firm must carefully analyze the
vacant positions and then use the method which best fulfills the requirement.
Following are the different types of external sources of recruitment:
Media Advertisement
Employment Exchange
Direct Recruitment
Casual Callers
Educational Institutions or Campus Placement
Labor Contractors
Walk-Ins
E-recruiting
Management Consultants

7. Getting referrals from LinkedIn-

8. STEPS TO GET REFERRALS FROM LINKEDIN-
There are the basic steps to getting a successful referral through LinkedIn:
1. Find the best suited person
2. Send the right formal message
3. Followup
4. Be genuine with words
- After you are done the basics of how to ask for reference follow the below steps.
- Check out profiles of people who are working at your preferred domain of interest.
- Prefer people who are working in the same domain of interest as of yours. Like, if you’re a content developer, it is
better to ask a content developer to refer you for the available vacant positions. They can judge you better based on
your curriculum vitae and your skills.
- LinkedIn allows you to send messages to a certain limit. Prefer people who’ve been active on LinkedIn in the past
one month. Here, activity means a like/comment/post/share.
- Try that your message is concise and appealing, this increases chances of getting a reply. The referrer may even
suggest some improvements or provide some valuable feedback.
That’s all we need right?

9. Steps and plan for recruitment using social media LinkedIn etc.
A job posting template is used to advertise jobs and helps standardize
them across a business. A good template should list things that attract
great candidates, rather than merely listing pertinent requirements
and qualifications. Job postings are also called job advertisements,
announcements, job ads, or wanted ads.

10. Steps and plan for recruitment using social
media LinkedIn etc.
Trying to find an employee that will not only fit with the job you are hiring for, but also your company culture can
be a challenge. It used to be that you could run an ad in the newspaper and you’d get a vast range of job
applicants, some that were highly qualified and some that were not.
• Be Specific-:Getting your point across right away, and highlighting the most important information in a job
post is critical
• Keep it Simple -: Don’t over complicate the job listing by throwing in a bunch of corporate jargon and big
words.
• Make it Memorable -: Focus on the exciting events/activities your office hosts or attends every year. If there
are fun or unique perks to working at your company, like a gym for employee use, free coffee, opportunities
for professional growth, or company outings, highlight these to get people excited about working for your
company.
• Make It Easy -: Always provide a link that takes applicants directly to the online application. If the content
you’re creating can’t utilize a link, make sure to provide a “next-step” for anyone interested in applying, such
as a contact email or phone number.
