Recruitment is a process of stimulating prospective employees to apply for a vacant position through advertising about any vacant position through advertising modes like positng a job in any Newspaper, Any Job Portal, etc.

Wherein, Selection is a process of choosing an appropriate candidate from the results received as part of the Recruitment Process. Its not that simple as Selection Process involves several steps wherein the candidate is put to various tests like Aptitude Test, Analytical Test, Simulation Test, Role Play, Inbasket and few other tests.

I hope this may be of little help to you.

Recruitment is a positive process...where you invite applications and let as many people as possible. Selection is a negative process, where to eliminate and reject unsuitable applicants.

Hello All,


Snigdaji said that "Recruitment is a process of stimulating prospective employees to apply for a vacant position through advertising about any vacant position through advertising modes like positng a job in any Newspaper, Any Job Portal, etc."


The underlined word is not employees that is "JOB SEEKERS"

Sorry snigdaji, if I am wrong.

Thanks,
Mahadeva

We can off course call the the candidates as prospective empoyees because they have chances to be inducted, prospective showing likelihood. If,however,we remove prospective before employees at recruitment & selection stage then it is wrong .For example prospective/likely to be customres is a many time retrieted word by companies,who have not however can become customers. And the word candidate does not need prepective because it itself conveying complete meanings:icon1:
