Hi Seniors.. :)
I have recently started following the threads posted in CiteHR that talk about new/old terminologies & practices used/followed in corporates like "The Honeymoon Effect" under Training & Development and "The Bell Curve" under Performance Appraisal etc. I'd appreciate it deeply if you can just let me know more terms like these because it will really help me (and I'm sure there are many freshers and other fellow HR professionals who would find it extremely helpful to) expand the knowledge-base in the domain of HR. Thanks in advance,
Cheers! Meghna

Talent acquisition is a new term used instead of 'Recruitment' these days, although not a completely new word. 'Boomerang' is another term which means hiring former employees.

You may not find these terms in older books, and perhaps not even in more recently written HR books, because they are not uniquely HR terms. They are just good English used in the HR context. If you refer to a good dictionary, you will probably be able to understand the meanings of most of these terms.

Agreed with gerry303... One of my uncles is a VP-HR in the manufacturing industry. He used to tell me that he has recently hired employees from an IT background, and they used to speak to him with convoluted English and jargon, which led to confusion.
So, in reference to IT employees, it's good. For a common man, it's difficult. However, my uncle completed his MBA about 5 years ago after being in the HR field for over 15 years.
