Abstract

Organizations are rapidly introducing new technology to the practice of campus recruiting and selection. The reasons driving this change are first discussed. A cross-section of technologies such as video-conferencing, computer-aided and computer-based interviewing, and recruiting on the Internet, are described and research related to the effectiveness of these technologies in campus recruiting are reviewed. The major conclusion of the article is that there is a pressing need for empirical research to evaluate these new technologies to establish their effectiveness for selection and recruiting.
