What is internal recruitment?

To recruit internally means hiring the people within the organisation. There are many methods to identify quality internal candidates. In an organisation some of the methods for the internal source of recruitment are:

1. Transfer : Transfer means shifting the employee from one place to another without the change in their designation. This helps them to learn more about the organisation which would help in the promotions in the future.

2. Promotions : In promotions the employees are moved to the upper levels of an organisation with more responsibilities. There are many benefits of hiring the higher positions within the organisation such as:

• The employee is familiar with the working environment of the company.
• It is cost effective.
• Other employees get motivated to work harder and reach the higher levels.

3. Employee Referrals : The present employees can offer the job to their friends and family. It would save cost and time than hiring the people from external sources.
