REVIEW OF LITERATURE AND FORMULATION OF
HYPOTHESES
This chapter is presented in three sections. The first section reviews the literature pertaining to role, importance of recruitment sources and perceived advantages and disadvantages of erecruitment. A diverse range of studies have been conducted by various scholars, which present different perspectives with regard to the role of recruitment, recruitment sources, the process of recruitment and importance given to e-recruitment in the organisations. Of late, perceived usage of e-recruitment at present and scope in future have been explored by many researchers. Through an overview of selected studies in the above areas an attempt has been made to bring out the essential parameters that govern e-recruitment, as considered relevant to the present study in Hospitality and Healthcare services.
The second section summarises the literature reviewed on e-recruitment and its impact on human resource supply chain management in providing quality of applicants, time and cost taken, and wider choice of applicants. The linkages between e-recruitment and its impact are explored by review of various studies conducted in this field.
The third section focuses on employee job search behaviour in context of e-recruitment. In this section research studies regarding employee job search behaviour as they apply to erecruitment have been reviewed. Research evidence regarding appropriateness of various services provided by the e-recruitment with special emphasis on company’s website and job boards have been investigated and their implications in taking decision on searching jobs online have also been reviewed
The latter two sections elaborate the hypotheses developed and conceptual model of the study based on the review of literature and the theoretical frame work underlying study.
