Modern recruitment techniques move beyond traditional methods by utilizing technology to recruit better, cheaper, and faster. Knowledge-based recruitment establishes anticipated skill requirements and maintains ongoing recruitment activity. E-recruitment uses web tools like job websites and company sites to advertise vacancies and allow job seekers to apply online. Other modern methods include scouting, employee referrals, networking, events, ESOPs, salary/perks, SMS, video networks, blogging, and casting a wider net to find candidates.
