The [[stages]] in recruitment include sourcing [[candidates]] by networking, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advertising advertising] or other [[methods]]. Utilizing professional interviewing [[techniques]] to understand the candidate’s [[skills]] but [[motivations]] to make a move, screening potential candidates using testing ([[skills]] or [[personality]]) is also a popular part of the [[process]]. The process is meant to not only evaluate the candidate but also evaluate how the candidate will fit into the organization. The recruiter will meet with the hiring manager to obtain specific [[position]] and type [[information]] before beginning the process.

Recruiters play an important role by [[preparing]] the [[candidate]] and company for the interview, providing [[feedback]] to both parties and handling salary/benefits [[negotiation]]s.[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recruitment]
