...of every business is to make profits for the owners. This looks to be an extremely effectiveness difficult task unless firms discover the different ways to improve on efficiency and of their operations. Recruitment is the process of generating a pool of capable candidates applying to an organisation for employment (Gold, 2007). Applicants with experience and qualifications most closely related to job specifications may eventually be selected. Organisations become concerned when the cost of a mistake in recruitment is high. According to Armstrong (2006) the aim is to obtain, at a minimum cost, the number of suitable and qualified candidates to satisfy the needs of the organisation. The organisation attracts candidates by means of identifying, evaluating and using the most appropriate sources of applicants. El-Kot and Leat’s (2008) observation is that recruitment begins with advertising existing vacancies As already mentioned, this can be done internally or externally. In this instance the researcher was interested in external sources and processes as organisations in the Province are currently experiencing an undersupply of suitable candidates. Company policies related to the employment of relatives may influence its recruitment efforts. Currently more and more companies implement anti-nepotism policies that prevent the employment of close relatives, especially relevant to placement of candidates in the same departments or work groups (McMillan, 2006). Recruitment and selection...

...Management Functions: Recruitment and Selection Uni*********** Research Paper for HRM**** Section 1202 ********** March 16, 2012 Outsourcing Human Resources Management Functions: Recruitment and Selection Introduction In the recent past, the competitive environment for many organizations has changed, with the organizations having to operate in globally capitalized environments, rapid industrialization, and changing technology (Abraham, 1988); and just recently a global economic downturn which has had organizations to downsize their operations. As a result, these organizations are constantly seeking new managerial methods, as both a way for the organization to be competitive and to cut operating cost; the most successful method is the outsourcing of business processes. Normally the Human Resources Management (HRM) function of recruitment has traditionally been performed in-house; advocates for outsourcing this function have increased and argue that outsourcing can reduce costs associated with recruitment and selection (Klass, 2001). Some organizations delegate crucial human resource functions to outside firms as a means of utilizing available expertise, reducing expenses, and to be able to concentrate on important business activities (Abraham and Taylor, 1996). The influence of increasing levels of globalization, technological changes, the complexity of business functions, and the current...

Currently, an increasing number of organizations are attempting to enhance inclusiveness of underrepresented individuals through proactive efforts to manage their diversity.
