Question

Consider yourself a consultant to an employer who needs to hire at least two individuals for an industrial engineering job. Assume that the employer’s business is located in Atlanta or anywhere in the US. The employer needs to hire one person within the next four weeks and a second person within three months. (Two different hiring dates)

Identify four different and specific recruitment sources (name them, not just the general type of source) from which the employer could recruit candidates for this position. This means that you should not list just websites. Be specific, not general, in naming these sources (example: Wall Street Journal, Manpower Associates, Institute of Industrial Engineers, Career Services at XYZ University, a specific website for professionals, etc. ).

For each source, provide the following information:

• Your rationale for recommending the source. Explain why the source would be a good recruitment source for the specific position.
• An estimate of how much it costs to advertise with that source (based on actual information that you gather). Call the source, research the website in-depth, or email the source for details. Obtain real data, not speculation. Cite sources used. [Do not make up your own numbers.]
