Introduction
The process of recruitment - attracting and selecting the right people
- is a demanding task and it should be approached thoroughly and methodically.
It can be a costly and time-consuming process, so the people involved in the
selection need to be confident that their choice of candidate is soundly based. Poor choices lead to dissatisfaction
with new staff, as well as existing staff and further cost caused by continued turn over of staff.
