Understanding Internal vs. External Recruitment in the Hiring Process

Hi guys, I just want to know that there are two types of recruitment: internal and external. Is giving job vacancy advertisements on a company's website considered external recruitment or internal recruitment? Please guide me and help me with the same.

Thank you.

Dear Prerna,

I could have given a one-line answer to your question and/or directed you to a website that provides examples/definitions. However, I won't. Kindly provide your background and tell us why you have raised that question. Have you searched the web for the definitions and examples of the two types? If not, please do that and tell us what you think is the answer to your question. I am sure our members will correct any misconceptions you may have.

Doing the above will make you a better learner.
