One of the most popular and cost effective way of recruitment is through the means of job websites and search engines. These websites advertise the job opening on the internet over a wide geographic area and invite suitable applicants. Although economical, this recruitment solution is time consuming as recruiting agents need to indulge in reading, screening and filtering resumes. Post the process of screening, the candidates are called to inform about the job opening and invited to apply for the position or to fix an appointment for interview.

The headhunting process, on the other hand, relies on networking and personnel relations to identify and invite the potential candidates. This process operates on the lines of marketing and sales techniques. The recruiting agents following this practice often build a strong network by attending trade shows and other meetings that are anticipated to be attended by potential candidates and hiring managers.

The social media includes interacting on networking websites like Facebook, Twitter, and most importantly 'LinkedIn'. Lastly, niche agencies are known to offer extensively effective results as these agencies tend to channel their resources and attention towards recruitment for just one field or industry.

In order to cut down costs, various firms have set up internal HR departments that include recruitment division. The recruitment agents of such firms use the employee referral scheme for filling up positions. In this scheme an employee gets certain incentive for each successful reference. This way firms get references of reliable candidates from the employees who are already working in their firm. These firms also resort to internal recruitment scheme where an existing employee can apply for a higher position for which the employee is either suitable or can be considered for the job position.
