Technically speaking, recruitment and selection are not synonymous. Recruitment means announcing job opportunities to the public in such a way that a good number of suitable people will apply for them. Selection means choosing from that number, those applicants who are most likely to succeed in the jobs. An interview is the most widely used technique for selection. Selection is a process of weeding out the unsuitable candidates and finally arriving at the most suitable one. In this sense, recruitment is a positive process while selection is a negative process of rejecting most of the candidates, leaving only a few who are considered suitable. A properly planned and systematic recruitment policy is necessary to minimize disruption of work by constantly changing personnel and achieve equitable distribution of employment opportunities. Recruitment policy should take into account that high calibre personnel are essential to have but hard to find. Despite tremendous unemployment, it is not easy to find the right type of personnel

selection is the choosing of the best candidates for the job. recruiting is ensuring that that candidate really is best suited for the job

Recruitment is a process of creating a pool of job candidates for a particular post or vacancy and like what some answers above alluded saying the creation of stimuli for job candidates to apply to certain jobs. This is normally done by establishing contact between the employer and the candidates;

  • Advertisements

 

On the other hand, Selection is therefore an involvement of a series of steps to ensure that the best candidate is chosen from the specific pool. Therefore this takes the form of picking up the best suitable candidate and rejecting the rest. Involves rigorous, time consuming and complicated approaches to to picking competent suitable candidates.
