Consider the statements about recruitment sources. Statement I: Filling a vacancy by promoting or transferring an existing employee is an internal source of recruitment. Statement II: Campus recruitment and employment exchanges are internal sources because they work through the company's own staff. Which is correct?

Only Statement I is correct. Promotions and transfers fill vacancies from within the organisation, so they are internal sources. Campus recruitment and employment exchanges bring candidates from outside the firm and are external sources, which makes Statement II incorrect.

  1. ABoth statements are correct
  2. BOnly Statement I is correctCorrect
  3. COnly Statement II is correct
  4. DNeither statement is correct

Explanation

Promotion and transfer draw on people already in the organisation, so they are internal sources. Campus recruitment and employment exchanges bring in people from outside, so they are external sources. Statement II is therefore wrong.
