HUMAN RESOURCE RECRUITING AND STAFFING


Recruitment is a process of acquiring, placing and will encourage potential employees to fill existing vacancies or positions within an organization. Based on Cascio (2006), the goal of recruitment function is to identify, attract and hire the most qualified people.
Hiring process usually involves advertising vacancies is through the print media, such as advertising in newspapers, flyers, or recommend them from friends at work. If there are candidates who are interested, they will send a resume to the organization by mail or fax. Human Resource Management organization will strain and review resumes selecting qualified candidates to the next process of the interview. Recruitment process like this is more of a traditional way takes a long time and high cost because of the problems faced by both sides.
Staff is candidates who have been employed in an organization. After they passed the interview and employed, indirectly they become assets of the organization. This is because the candidates are qualified candidates and potential to contribute new ideas to compete with other organizations. Each person has their own ability, so, organizations need to identify each employee and give them the opportunity to improve their ability like sending them to training related to their work and make talent management for the existing staff. Staffing department has responsibility to deciding on the right training at the right time and to the right person.
In the era of globalization and technology at present forcing organizations to do the recruitment process through the online system to facilitate the work and compete with other organization. Online recruitment methods involve the use of computer and internet. Through this, the organization will display the advertisement in website or network organizations. Candidates who are interested only need to fill in and send a resume online via email. The management of the organization will be easier and faster for screening the resumes, the resume. Indirectly, the organization will be able to reduce cost and time in doing the process of selecting candidates. In addition, organizations can reduce the cost of job advertisements through the print media as well as reduce the workload of the department of human resources in this process.
