(i) Campus recruitment is very convenient and inexpensive. The employer gets help from the placement cell of the educational institute in recruitment and selection. Well-educated persons become available very quickly without any advertisements. That is why campus recruitment has become very popular, particularly in cases where prior job experience is not required.
(ii) Private placement agencies can be engaged for recruiting staff. These agencies advertise the vacancies, receive applications, conduct interviews and short-list candidates on behalf of employers. But they charge fee for their services. These agencies have become a popular source for recruiting managerial and technical personnel.
