recruitment, employee referrals, employment agencies, labour office and
educational and training establishment. Selection process followed recruitment
which entails, initial screening, interview, reference check, selection test, job offer
that mostly leads to organisational performance.

obtaining qualified applicants for the organization to consider when filling job

and selection process and methods.

and it is necessary to keep abreast of developments in research in this field. One

services the employer needs to undertake recruitment by creating a pool of
applicants, which mainly leads to the selection of qualified people to work in the
organisation. Recruitment and selection also has an important role to play in
ensuring worker performance and positive organisational outcomes. Two main
sources of recruitment was identified- internal and external source of
recruitment.

Another scholar Jovanonic (2004), auruged that recruitment is a process of

attracting a great pool of high quality applicants to select the best among then.
Omale (1992), in “past practice in personnel management in the Nigeria civil
service: issues and procedures” detained recruitment as the process which starts
from getting an applicant interested enough in a job and in a particular
organization to write an application and the process stops when his application
has been received in the organization.
