E-recruitment, also known as online recruitment, is
the use of internet-based platforms and technologies to attract, screen, and
hire candidates for job positions. This method has transformed traditional
hiring processes by making them faster, more efficient, and cost-effective.
Through e-recruitment, organizations can reach a broader pool of talent,
streamline application procedures, and enhance the overall candidate
experience.
With advancements in digital technology,
e-recruitment encompasses a range of tools and practices, including job
portals, social media platforms, applicant tracking systems, and artificial
intelligence-based screening tools. These innovations enable recruiters to
match candidates to roles more accurately and reduce the time spent on
administrative tasks. For job seekers, e-recruitment offers convenience,
transparency, and access to diverse opportunities.
However, e-recruitment is not without challenges.
Issues such as data privacy concerns, reliance on algorithms, and the digital
divide can impact its effectiveness. This study examines the advantages,
