What Are The Three Reasons Why Vacancies Occur

Vacancies occur within the business for many reasons, which can range from an employee having long-term sickness to the expansion of the business. Below this will be where I explain the most important reasons and I will be giving examples to both Tesco and Woking College.

Employment agency is another option for external recruitments. Companies can simply provide job description to agencies where vacancies will be introduced to people who are looking for jobs.

According to Russell, K. (2016) internal recruitment is the process of find a suitable employees from exiting workforce of an organisation to carry out a new vacancy aroused in

Recruitment: It is the process of identifying and attempting to attract candidate who are capable of filling job vacancies appropriately (Kathryn M. Bartol and David C. Martin, 1988)

External recruitment is when job vacancies is filled by a non-existing employee (a person from outside of the organisation).

There is always an amount of staff turnover within all organisations. People may be promoted within the organisation or take other sideways moves that take them out of their current team. These posts therefore become vacant and the decision making process to fill them begins.

One internal and two external ways that I could recruit for this role are through an internal

By discovering the reasons as to why employees leave the organisation, strategies for organisations to increase retention can then be identified (Mowday 1984).

Recruiting inside the organisation has both pros and cons, some of the benefits would be knowing what the person is already capable of in the job and if they are open to learning new things, how well they do in their position already and how motivated they are towards their job. There are also negatives about recruiting from inside the work place, the employee could feel overly comfortable and friendly in the job and with their colleagues resulting in them not being motivated to do work.

Another reason is that advances in technology influence the way jobs are performed. For example, Tesco now have self-service machines so fewer employees will be recruited to work on the tills and instead they are able to stock the shelves and increase sales. Also, another reason is that there may be staff being promoted internally which means somebody already working for a company gets a promotion to a higher job. Therefore, their former role will need to be filled by recruiting someone new.

Recruitment agency: benefits of recruiting through an agency are, the agency work with the company’s requirements/specifications to filter candidates for interview process, the agency can be involved at interview stages. More time efficient and effective than a manager searching through a number of applicants and CVs.

External - Candidates are sought from outside of the organization (not current employees) through methods such as want ads, head hunters (recruiters), job fairs, on-campus recruiting, etc... Advantage - allows firms to acquire new perspectives, expertise, and capabilities that they do not currently possess.

It is beneficial from a HR perspective as the person is already known and his personal data is already recorded.

In Tesco, they do vacancies occur for the process of developing a pool of experienced hopefuls who are interested in working for their organization and from which the organization might reasonably. Select the best individual or individuals to hire for a job. also they do vacancies occur giving mothers,

Recruitment: different recruitment channels e.g. adverts, agencies, ‘head hunters’’ internet sites, job fairs; provide advice to managers on recruitment; writing job descriptions using an appropriate model e.g. seven-point plan; writing person specifications; writing job advertisements and selecting appropriate media for internal and external advertisement; managing application forms
