The timeline varies by role and industry. Entry-level positions may take 2-4 weeks, while executive roles can take 3-6 months.

Calculating a recruiting budget involves considering multiple factors: 

Job Advertising Costs (LinkedIn, Indeed, niche job boards) 

Agency Fees (If using recruiters, typically 15-25% of the hire’s salary) 

Technology Costs (Applicant Tracking Systems, HR software) 

Employer Branding (Career page, social media campaigns) 

Interview & Relocation Expenses (Travel, assessments, relocation packages) 

A good rule of thumb is allocating 3-4 months of the role’s salary for mid-level hires and more for executive positions. Tracking cost-per-hire (CPH) helps optimise spending.

Recruitment is the process of attracting and sourcing candidates, including job postings, employer branding, and talent pipelines. Selection, however, involves evaluating and choosing the best candidate through interviews, tests, and background checks.

• Recruitment = Marketing the role (Widening the talent pool).
• Selection = Assessing fit (Narrowing down to the best hire).

Both are crucial for hiring success but require different strategies.
