Question
What is the differences between internal and external recruitment methods?
Tx 4 the time

Answer
Internal recruitment would be looking to fill a job opening with an employee already in your organization, for example promoting someone from within your ranks from another division. External recruiting entails trying to fill a position with a person who does not currently work for your organization.

Hope that helps.
