Sources of Recruitment
 The sources of recruitment may broadly be divided into two categories:
 Internal sources
 External sources
 Both have their merits and demerits.
21
Merits and demerits of Internal sources
Merits Demerits
Economical: The cost of recruiting internal
candidates is minimal. No expenses are incurred on
advertising.
Limited choice: It may have to sacrifice quality
and settle for less qualified candidates.
Suitable: The organization can pick the right
candidates having the requisite skills. The
candidates can choose a right vacancy where their
talents can be fully utilized.
Inbreeding: Existing employees may fail to
behave in innovative ways and inject necessary
dynamism to enterprise activities.
Reliable: The organization has knowledge about
the suitability of a candidate for a position. ‘Known
devils are better than unknown angels!’.
Inefficiency: Promotions based on length of
service rather than merit, may prove to be a
blessing for inefficient candidates.
Satisfying: A policy of preferring people from
within offers regular promotional avenues for
employees. It motivates them to work hard and
earn promotions.
Bone of contention: Recruitment from within
may lead to infighting among employees aspiring
for limited, higher-level positions in an
organization.
22
Merits and demerits of External sources
Merits Demerits
Wide choice: The organization has the freedom
to select candidates from a large pool. Persons with
requisite qualifications could be picked up.
Expensive: Hiring costs could go up substantially.
Tapping multifarious sources of recruitment is not
an easy task, either.
Injection of fresh blood: People with special
skills and knowledge could be hired for innovative
ways of working.
Time consuming: It takes time to advertise,
screen, to test and to select suitable employees.
Motivational force: It helps in motivating
internal employees to work hard and compete with
external candidates while seeking career growth.
Demotivating: Existing employees who have put
in considerable service may resist the process of
filling up vacancies from outside.
Long term benefits: Talented people could join
the ranks, new ideas could find meaningful
expression.
Uncertainty: There is no guarantee that the
organization, ultimately, will be able to hire the
services of suitable candidates.
23
Internal Method Of Recruitment
 Promotions and transfers: Promotion is the movement of an employee from
a lower level position to a higher level position with increase in salary
Transfer, on the other hand, is a lateral movement within the same grade,
from one job to another.
 Job posting: It is a method of publicizing job openings on bulletin boards,
electronic media and similar outlets by a company.
 Employee referrals: It is a kind of recommendation from a current employee
regarding a job applicant.
24

in college campuses and their placement centers. Possibly the most popular

 Employment exchanges: -
