Which of the following activities is NOT a part of the process of recruitment?

Selecting the most suitable candidate

The correct answer is option 2-Selecting the most suitable candidate.

Recruitment may be defined as the process of searching for prospective employees and stimulating them to apply for jobs in the organisation. The information generated in the process of writing the job description and the candidate profile may be used for developing the ‘situations vacant’ advertisement. The advertisement may be displayed on the factory/ office gate or else it may be got published in print media or flashed in electronic media. This step involves locating the potential candidate or determining the sources of potential candidates. The essential objective is to create a pool of the prospective job candidates.

Selecting the most suitable candidate is not a part of recruitment, but it is a part of selection process.
