History

Does anyone know the history of recruitment? I am NOT interested to know how long it has been around for. Maybe since the dawn of man? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bbglas007 (talk • contribs) 02:45, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

Loudness Recruitment

Would anyone object to an addition for all definitions of recruitment? I'm going to be putting a page for "Loudness Recruitment" together soon, and would like to link to there from this page.

Examples (from: http://www.answers.com/recruitment?cat=health & http://www.encyclopedia.com/doc/1O87-recruitment.html ):

A serial discharge from neurons innervating groups of muscle fibers.

A symptom of certain forms of hearing disorder in which there is a greater than normal increase in loudness with increasing stimulus intensity, resulting in a distressing exaggeration of loud sounds, while soft sounds may be comfortably audible. Also called loudness recruitment.

An increase in the number of neurons firing as a stimulus is prolonged.[From French recroître to reinforce, from Latin recrescere to grow again, from re- again + crescere to grow]

Disagree

Recruitment and staffing are different

Staffing function deals with allocating internal resources to various projects. Recruitment deals with attracting job seekers into the company

Completely disagree

Staffing is not a type of recruitment. They are essentially completely different Services. To staff is to provide temporary employment to satisfy a specific corporate need. It is transient and not permanent. To recruit is to permanently retain talent. They are two opposing and equal subjects. similar to renting and buying a home. One is transient, the other permanent.do you.

Also this should not be under Human resources. Again they are completely different roles. Recruitment and Staffing are services that Hr can utilize but does not necessarily fall under their scope and mandate. Recruitment can but staffing will absoloutely not. IF you would like to choose an umbrella category for recruitment and staffing then I suggest "Outsourcing" —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bananaman4u (talk • contribs) 04:13, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

Merge of Recruitment - The Concept

Somebody has written a long, unreferenced, article about recruitment under the title Recruitment - The Concept. It looks like some of it might be worth merging but I am not sure as this is not my area. If none of it us useful then please can somebody just slap a PROD tag on it. --DanielRigal (talk) 22:15, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Beginning Recruiting Tools

In recruiting there are two main selection tools in the beginning of recruiting that a company can utilize to choose the best applicant for the position. Many companies use initial screening that may start with an application blank or an interview. There are two types of application blanks or also called a personal-history record used by companies. First there is a short form ordinarily serves only as an internal screening device. A longer blank may be used as an initial screen or for other purposes. An application blank is an excellent tool for getting significant information in three main categories physical characteristics, experience, and social environmental factors. The facts on the blanks can be the basis for probing in an interview. Another tool companies us in the initial screening stage of recruiting is personal interviews. A personal interview is basically used to determine a person’s fitness for the position. Also Recruits use personal interviews because they disclose characteristics that are not always observable by other initial recruiting tools. Many recruits like to use personal interviews because it is probably the best way to find out about the recruit’s conversational ability, speaking voice, and social intelligence. This is a key reason why personal interviews are the most used tool for recruits.
