Question

Identify and explain the two sources of the source of recruitment which cannot be used when the existing staff is either insufficient or does not fulfil the eligibility criteria of the jobs to be filled.

Answer 1

Two sources of internal recruitment:

1. Promotion refers to shifting of an employee to a higher position, carrying higher responsibilities, facilities, status and pay.
2. Transfer involves shifting of an employee from one job to another, one department to another, without substantive change in the responsibilities and status of the employee.
