Hiring from within the Firm
Hiring within a company comes with its share of advantages. Hiring with the company means you know what to expect from the employee because you already know them. Hiring within the company also saves the company money and is faster during transition times (Indeed Editorial Team, 2021). The employee is familiar with the business and reduces the risk of hiring the wrong person. The practice also fosters a strong company culture.
Despite the advantages, hiring from within the firm also has its disadvantages. For instance, it means the company will lack an outside perspective. It is also more challenging to be selective when choosing from a pool of applicants within the firm. The practice can also create a potential conflict among the current employees because one person got a job over the other.
Hiring from Outside the Firm.
Hiring from outside the firm comes with its share of advantages. For instance, the practice enhances diversity within the firm. Additionally, the practice also makes employees competitive. On the other hand, the practice has its disadvantages (Indeed Editorial Team, 2021). For instance, it is expensive to do external recruitment. The practice also dictates additional training for the new employees.
