Abstract

The phenomenal growth of the Indian economy in the recent past has intensified the war for talent, putting pressure on the recruitment processes. However, Internet is bringing radical changes in the recruitment arena, as companies are expanding their use of the Internet as a recruitment tool to attract competent people, and thus, have competitive advantage. We tested to what extent e- recruitment is helping the organizations in selection process or acting as a root of attrition.

The 104 employees were interviewed with the help of questionnaires.

There is a positive relationship between e-recruitment and attrition.

The e-recruitment has increased the attrition rate of the organizations as organization are more easily approachable in terms of online recruitment, employees having accounts with job portals keep applying for better options, shortage of time in measuring skill required for the job, lack of productivity due to the mismatching of competencies, questions of supply and demand of employee, are the key factors responsible for increasing the attrition rate.

Explains to what extent e-recruitment of the modern organization is affecting the attrition rate and how organizations would conquer it.
