Internal recruitment
Advantages:
- As it is carried out within the company itself, there is no need to invest in job advertisements and evaluations, so the process is much less expensive than external recruitment
- It works as an incentive for the rest of the employees, since they see that it is possible to grow within the organization. Encouraging worker motivation and helping to retain talent.
- Since the candidates are already known, we need less time to evaluate them, which results in a more efficient process.
Disadvantages:
- Competitiveness among employees may arise to get the new vacancy.
- Depending on the situation, when the worker is promoted or transcended, they leave a vacancy. This must be taken into account if we are assessing the costs of the process and we are going to cover that position through external recruitment.
- It prevents the arrival of new personnel who contribute a different vision.
