From the Paper:

"Recruitment appears to be simple a simple task. An opening in the organization arises, the position is advertised, a pool of qualified candidates is interviewed and otherwise assessed, the successful candidate selected, and the position offered. It rarely goes as smoothly as that. By final interview stages, so much information about the candidates has been gathered, that those who must decide between them are often overloaded with information and turn to subjective impressions and biases. Figuring out how to effectively recruit the right employees is a difficult task. This paper will present several different techniques that may prove to be effective for a human resources employee during the recruiting process of hiring an individual."
