What is the recruitment process?Show answer
Recruitment is finding and attracting suitable candidates for a vacancy. A typical process: identify the vacancy and confirm it is needed; produce a job description (the tasks and responsibilities of the role) and a person specification (the skills, qualifications and qualities the candidate needs); advertise through suitable channels; and generate a pool of applicants. Good preparation here - a clear job description and person specification - underpins effective selection later.
