2.2 RECRUITMENT
Shaw (1990; 305) in his recruitment policy and effects on how employers and employees can be happy in order to achieve job satisfaction, analyzed the merit of internal and external recruitments. He observed that internal recruitment allows employees within the organization to advance in their careers, while on the other hand, external recruitment allows the injection of new ideas into the organization.
He further analyzed that high level intake will mean higher salaries for new recruits so that the experience of existing employees must be reflected in their salaries as compensation. In addition to manpower planning, proper recruitment ensures that each employee has an opportunity to make his best contribution to the organization.
