Document Summary
Chapter 6: recruitment: the first step in the selection process. Recruitment is an outcome of hr planning. (1) an assessment of the internal and external factors affecting the organization. (2) an organization analysis based of those factors. (3) a job analysis that identifies worker behaviors and characteristics to aid in selecting candidates who are qualified for the position. Goal of recruitment is to attract a large pool of qualified candidates (an applicant pool) from whom the organization can select the best-qualified people for the position. Quality and quantity of the applicant pool is related to the source and nature of the recruiting information an applicant receives. Job applicants are not passive; they form opinions of the organization, the selection process, the people they meet, and the desirability of working in the organization. Organizations characteristics such as location, size of enterprise, and type of industry may steer individuals away from applying for jobs no matter how attractive or qualified they are.
