Reduces Recruitment Budget saves time & money
Media Advertising, receiving the response and screening them all are time consuming and expensive propositions. Internal recruitment saves all this.
Reduces training time
The average organization spends over $1,000 a year on training for each employee; a cost that includes the time spent by managers and experienced co-workers in teaching and demonstrating the requirements of the job. Whereas an internal recruit would need far less orientation & training and start off immediately because of various admin synergies too.
Enhancing Organizational Productivity
Organizations having internal promotion policy benefits from highly motivated staff that have a direct bearing on productivity.
Employee Morale Booster
Training & preparing staff to take on next level roles are tremendous morale boosters and they all can look for a better future with the same organization. a key human requirement.
Succession planning – No Gaps in Delivery
An organization that grooms capable employees to move into higher positions will benefit from the skills and talent in its workforce and the succession planning will also ensure there are no gaps in the delivery of service when some existing incumbent leaves.
Advantages:
- You have much more control over the A-Z recruitment process in comparison to being an external recruiter. Scheduling interviews, feedback, agreeing packages etc is usually a much smoother process when you are managing it internally.
- You will come to develop a strong understanding of the company's corporate culture and requirements, allowing you to make better educated hiring decisions.
- There are usually good career progression opportunities, whether that be moving up within the Recruitment department or being trained to support other HR functions.
Disadvantages:
- The cost of bad hiring decisions are high, so you will need to find a balance between meeting requirements within the given time-frames whilst taking time to make sure you have found an ideal long-term employee.
- Depending on the size, industry and turnover of the company, there may be times when you have little to no active vacancies to work on.
- You will usually earn less money working as an internal recruiter than you would working for a recruitment agency due to absence of commission, however you will have significantly less headaches and running around to deal with so the pay:work ratio balances out.
I agree with the answer of @Rebecca Prunty
