Recruit then select; planning comes first.
Recruitment and selection
- Recruitment attracts applicants 求职者 (job description, person specification 人员规格, advert).
- Selection chooses the best (application forms, interviews, tests, references).
- It can be internal 内部 (promote 晋升 from within) or external 外部 (hire from outside).
Worked example. A growing firm needs five new salespeople. HR writes a person specification, advertises, shortlists, interviews, and selects — then plans their induction 入职培训 so they are productive quickly.

Recruitment: describe the job, advertise, then select the best applicant
An advantage of internal recruitment is that it:

Internal recruitment is cheaper and motivating, but adds no new ideas.
External recruitment can bring new skills and ideas into a firm.

Hiring from outside introduces fresh expertise, though at higher cost.
Internal vs external recruitment
- Internal: cheaper, faster, motivates staff — but no fresh ideas and leaves another gap.
- External: brings new skills and ideas — but is costly, slower and riskier.
You've got it
- HRM plans, recruits, trains and retains the workforce
- recruitment attracts applicants; selection chooses the best
- recruitment can be internal (cheap, motivating) or external (fresh skills)
Write from 4 posts filled
- External advertising draws 40 applicants.
- The firm has 4 posts to fill.
- Say what recruitment did and what selection must do.
External advertising attracts 40 applicants for 4 posts. Which part of HRM attracted the applicants, and which part should choose the 4 people?
Recruitment builds the list. Selection picks from it.
