Good resources, Recruitment process involves a systematic procedure from sourcing the candidates to arranging and conducting the interviews and requires many resources and time. A general recruitment process is as follows:
  1. Identify vacancy
  2. Prepare job description and person specification
  3. Advertising the vacancy
  4. Managing the response
  5. Short-listing
  6. Arrange interviews
  7. Conducting interview and decision making
The recruitment process is immediately followed by the selection process i.e. the final interviews and the decision making, conveying the decision and the appointment formalities.

Hi guys
in my opinion recruitment is only about generating a pool of candidates for positions open in an org...it starts from HR planning ie you decide what are your company's plans and how does HR fit in... eg if my co's goal is venturing into education sector i (as HR) need tp find out how many teachers, non-teaching staff etc I would need..once thats decided I would think whether i want to go into internal or external recruitment.. internal is promotions/transfers and sometimes refernces external is consultants job portals campus placements etc...once you've lined up candidates, the next step is screening them....from here the next HR funtion of selection starts...actually theres a thin line between sourcing>recruitment>selection but the difference is important to understand...
hope its not too complicated :)

Hi ,

Recruitment process is the process that is adopted for hiring the right candidates and transforming them as employers of particular organisation.

Recruitment process can be adopted in simple 5 steps process :

1.Pre Approach

2.Approach

3.Interviews

4.Results and objections

5.Close

Pre approach :- This is the step where Planning comes into picture.Recruiter gets the vacancy information and expectations of the clients.Recruiter prepares the Job description as per the company standards and post it over the job portals,IJP postings and thru employee referrals.

Approach :- This is the process where recruiter approaches towards the Candidates and Phone screening takes place.once phone screening is done, he will put forward across the leads for their approval.after receiving the approvals recruiter shortlists the CVs and informs to the desired candidates and knows the candidates availability.

Interviews :- This phase is where Recruiter acts as Point of contact to the candidate and conducts the interview process to the shortlisted candidates.

Results and objections :- Once the results were out from the Techleads, the same will be informed to the Candidate and once gets selected, he/she will be informed about the same and asks for the documents to be collected.infact, inthis phase employee was asked to provide the references for background check if needed.

Close : Once the above requirements were met, then offer to the candidate is made and invites for the induction programme.,

Next followed by ----

Joining formalities.

Induction

Employee relations.

Satish

Hello hi all, to me recruitment is the process of searching prospective candidates for a job and influencing/attracting them to apply for a job in the organisation.Thus recruitment process start when Hr department receive a requistion from various department for open vacant need for employee or knowlowdge gap to perform certain duty in the organisation and its ends when HR Department receive application.That is the recruitment from that selection process start but many people confusing recruitment and selection as a seen others giving process above.

Hi..
I m sulabh Verma , MBA final sem.
I think most of the people confuse in process of recruitment and the Method of recruitment.
Process of recruitment means steps of recruitment. So following are the sequential steps of recruitment-
1. Identify the vacancies
2. Preparing Job descriptions and specification
3. Publishing Vacancy
4. Short Listing and Identifying the prospective employee with required
characteristics.
5. Arranging the Interview
6. Conducting the Interview and Decision making.
thx
