Finding and selecting the best people for your organization is still the most important HR intervention. In many organizations, the HR practices in recruitment and selection are still of the Stone Age. Someone has found a new job or gets an internal promotion. HR writes a job profile, full of required skills and competencies. The job is posted and candidates apply. HR waits a couple of weeks until there is a good batch. A long list is made, and five candidates are invited for interviews. After a couple of interview rounds, and maybe some assessment or tests, the final candidate is offered the job. She has a notice period of three months and starts six to nine months after the vacancy appeared. What are some of the current trends in the area of recruitment and selection?

In today’s world, it is harder than ever to attract high quality job candidates. Companies of all sizes are competing against each other trying to hire the best engineers, developers, sales force, marketers, and support teams. A majority of the modern day recruitment processes use pre-employment skill testing as an integral part of their hiring strategy. However, the catch here is getting candidates to give their assessments. Candidates, especially millennial find it too taxing to give an assessment test. The same is true for lateral hiring.
Today, there is a lot of buzz around the word "Candidate Experience". It does not simply begin the moment the candidate walks into the company premises rather it’s the very moment they read the job posting.
