As a manager, do you prefer recruiting internally or externally? Why?

 that question mainly depends on the company's line of work because some are better to recruit form inside and some externally

We advertise the posts internally, and thereafter look outside the company to find the best match to the skills expertise.  Empowering your staff to grow from within is usually our first approach. 

It is much better to promote a existing employee from the organization. 

Its depends on the open position & talents management process. If the current talent pools are not utilized properly and if there is way for internal swap, i would suggest to do that, otherwise we can do it externally.

As a manager, I would most certainly given an opportunity for an internal employees as this deals with Employee engagement aspect of any organization. However, in certain scenarios, due to non availability of relevant skillset, it is suggestable to recruit externally

Its is completely depend upon companies management.

This depends on the role, pre-skills and knowledge and the culture in the organization

I prefer internal team plus external recruitment in order to add additional breed of competency to the organization and improvement the team work to become high profisional and emblemante the high quality.

Depending on the company policies, but as a manager and for the company to attract compitent candidates from the market, I would prefer recruiting both internally and externally. Because it gives opportunity to the employer to employ the most competent applicant, most a times when employers focus on internal recruitment they don't get the best candidate(s).

I prefer external recruitment in order to add aditional breed of competence to the organisation. However, internal recruitment is also equally important in ensuring high organisational values and practices exposure and continued teamwork flourish.

Internally, first prefrence is always given to employee reference
