We don't consider recruitment a back-end process. I work for a large international pharmaceutical company, and recruitment is one of the key pillars within the HR function.
How one defines recruitment can be the issue, and also how recruitment is viewed overall within the corporation. This all stems from the fact of how HR is viewed as either transactional or as operational and moving into the business partnership with each of their clients.
Just some food for thought, I suppose. :) Cheers!

Hi, I am Nisha, working with a Yellow Pages company. I would like to share my view that a Recruitment Officer is just like a Marketing professional.
Marketing professionals advertise the services or products with the ultimate goal of selling the company's services/products. Recruitment officers advertise the company to attract potential candidates.
Marketing professionals introduce new schemes to serve existing customers so they stick to our services. Recruitment officers introduce the best employee benefits so our existing employees stay with our company for the long term.
Marketing professionals look for new sources of customers, while recruitment officers look for new sources of candidates.
Marketing is related to customer satisfaction, while Human Resources is related to employee satisfaction. So, if Marketing can never be a backend process, then how can Recruitment be?
Thanks with regards, Nisha

Hi Groupies,
It certainly isn't a back-end process! Although I can guess where the point is coming from - Visibility of the function in an organization. Ask a software consulting company's hiring manager - he spends sleepless nights before he gets the team together before he starts the project. He can't happily outsource (however it does happen at times - then he repents) and let the time solve the trouble.
For those who understand what recruitment is... it isn't a doubt et al!
