Effectiveness of E-Recruitment Practices in HR Consultancy Firms- An Empirical Evidence.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of E-Recruitment practices in HR consultancy firms and understand how digital recruitment tools impact the efficiency and quality of the hiring process. The study aims to examine key aspects such as time and cost efficiency, candidate reach, quality of hires, and user satisfaction with online recruitment platforms. By providing empirical evidence, the study seeks to offer insights for HR professionals and consultancy firms to optimize their E-Recruitment strategies, overcome challenges, and enhance overall talent acquisition effectiveness, thereby improving organizational performance and competitiveness in a technology-driven recruitment landscape. The rapid advancement of digital technologies has transformed human resource management, with E-Recruitment emerging as a vital tool for HR consultancy firms to attract, screen, and select talent efficiently. This study examines the effectiveness of E-Recruitment practices in HR consultancy firms by analyzing how online recruitment platforms, social media tools, and applicant tracking systems influence the recruitment process. Using a combination of primary data collected through surveys of HR professionals and secondary data from organizational records, the study evaluates factors such as time efficiency, cost-effectiveness, candidate quality, and user satisfaction. The findings indicate that E-Recruitment significantly improves recruitment speed and access to a wider talent pool, though challenges such as technological limitations, lack of personalization, and data security concerns persist.
