Dear Friend,
Recruitment process starts from the moment a vacancy is identified or created. For new vacancy one needs to make the job analysis which includes job specification and job description. Sometime even identifying and setting the basis for the vacancy is tough. Like in a newly formed office or in a new garment shop how many employees should to be appointed.
Therefore in simple terms Recruitment is a process of having the right person, in the right place, at the right time and at the right price. It is essential for performance of Organisation and also a critical activity.
You may know more by just typing recruitment on wikipedia it has more ready-made information.

Dear Friend,

If you are going for interview in recruitment sector than that time the process of recruitment is different form others.

For a consultancy, Recruitment process is as below -

-Understand the requirement

-Preparation with job description and job specification. ( In this step you need to communicate with your client )

-Job posting in various job portals.

-Getting resumes and screening of resumes.

-Conduct telephonic/first round of interview to selected candidate ( In this interview you make aware to candidate regarding your client's requirement, company profile etc..)

-If candidate is relevant than schedule the interview with client (First, You need to take proper time for interview from your client)

-After interview - Communicate with both of the parties ( Candidate and client)

- Follow-ups from both parties.

-If candidate select in company than take various details like- DOJ, salary package, position, probation period, notice period.

Thus, This process will remain continue for all client

For any company, Recruitment Process -
