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.

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.

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).
