Solution
New blood
Explanation:
Bringing in “new blood” (fresh talent, new ideas, and outside perspectives) is a significant advantage of external recruitment, implying a limitation or disadvantage of the internal source. Internal recruitment depends solely on current employees through promotions or transfers, which saves time and money and prevents increasing hiring costs but can lead to organizational stagnation.
