Recruitment 1
Introduction
Recruitment is considered a function of human resources and aims of hiring the right
candidates for open positions in the organization. It also manages the hiring process and
attracts the potential candidates for carrying out the organization goals and higher
profitability in business (Oppong, 2017).
Flaws in the traditional recruiting process
Apart from an effective recruitment process, the traditional recruitment methods
consist of various flaws that limit the company to select the right candidates and also lead to
bad decisions. Through the open positions at websites and using artificial intelligence, the
organizations are not able to find the right candidate who possesses the required skills and
knowledge. The traditional recruitment process is complex and longer however does not
involve the right priorities to select the right candidate. It leads to high-cost involvement and
eliminates potential candidates through wrong scrutinizing and bad decisions (Oppong,
2017).
The internal recruitment method limits the incubation of the fresh blood and restricts
creativity in the organization. It is recorded that the organizations do not have a standard
interview protocol which in turn leads to bad hiring by asking wrong questions and not
proper job descriptions. The adoption of the traditional recruitment models does not provide a
clear picture of the candidates that the company prefers to hire and increases the cost of the
company by not finding the perfect fit for the potential job position. The job fairs are proved
to be a waste of time because the companies are not able to find potential candidates (Sales,
2013).
