Describe the major advantages and disadvantages of internal recruiting.

What will be an ideal response?


The major advantages of internal recruiting include increases in organizational commitment and job satisfaction, the ability to learn more about the “big picture” in the company, the fact that the individual feels comfortable working for the company, the fact that the company knows the individual and that person’s work history, lower recruiting costs, and a relatively speedy process compared to external recruiting. Disadvantages include the facts that the pool of applicants is smaller, you will have to fill the old job of the person you hire, success in one job doesn’t necessarily mean success in a different job, external candidates may be more qualified, internal candidates may feel that they are entitled to the job, and we may perpetuate resistance to change and stifle innovation and creativity.
