field of HRM. The model that provided the focus was developed by the American Society for Training
and Development (ASTD).' In its study, ASTD identified nine human resource areas:
• Training and development
• Organization development
• Organization /Job Design
• Human resource planning
• Selection and Staffing

Organizations.
• Human capital is arguably the most treasured and valued asset of any organization, and is
primarily responsible for adding value to all other assets of an organization. The very word
recruitment is a logistics nightmare for the HR of many organizations. It has been seen, in this
rapid changing world, that various sourcing recruitment channels, such as social media
(LinkedIn, Facebook, etc.) have been developed and used, in addition to the traditional ones
(advertisements, employee referrals, recruitment agencies, etc.). In this paper, an attempt has
been made to identify the changing trends related to effective hiring sources and to study their
impact on the leading global organizations. It is concluded that a shift is being made towards the
modern and innovative sourcing channels due to various factors like quality, cost, availability,
time, etc.

• Video interviews might be more personal than email correspondence or phone
conversations, but they are not perfect parallels of the traditional, in person meeting. In fact,
a team of Canadian researchers found that applicants interviewed via video are less likely to
be hired than applicants interviewed in person, probably because of the ways in which
video interviews affect body language, tone of voice, and other important qualities.
• Recruiters and HR professionals will continue to use video interviewing because, problems
aside, and the technology does offer serious benefits. Most people have easy access to
webcams built right into their computers and smart phones, and video calls offer flexible
scheduling with little-to-no travel costs.

propel it into the future. Mobile handsets are becoming increasingly sophisticated and yet easier to use.
• The power of cloud computing will enhance handsets to allow extremely complex and processor hungry
computing and therefore a very powerful mobile experience offering more opportunities than desktop.
• Mobile internet will soon account for half, or more, of all internet access.
• Mobile has synergy with recruitment. The immediacy, privacy and convenience offered by a mobile handset is very
important to a job seeker. An appetite exists for job search via mobile and this is clearly demonstrated in the
statistics and anecdotes offered by the panel.
• The panel, every one of them deeply involved and very experienced in mobile, all recognised the huge potential and
rapid growth of mobile internet. They were unanimous in the message that now is the time to adopt and integrate
mobile strategies into your business model. Tomorrow will be too late in such a fast moving market.
