What is Talent Recruitment?

Talent attraction and recruitment is the first step in identifying, screening, and selecting talent for a particular job role in Social Purpose organizations (SPOs). Effective recruitment strategies bring the right candidate on board so that the effectiveness and performance of the SPO is enhanced. Conversely, when SPOs do not find the right candidate, they prefer not to hire, worrying that a wrong hire might negatively affect the organization.
