=== E-recruiting ===
[[Recruitment|Recruiting]] has mostly been influenced by information technology.<ref name=":1">1. Ensher, E. A., Nielson, T. R., & Grant-Vallone, E. (2002). Tales from the Hiring Line: Effects of the Internet and Technology on HR Processes. ''Organizational Dynamics,'' ''31''(3), 224-244. 
</ref> In the past, recruiters relied on [[Print ad|printing in publications]] and [[word of mouth]] to fill open positions. Human Resource professionals were not able to post a job in more than one location and did not have access to millions of people, causing the lead time of new hires to be drawn out and tiresome. With the use of e-recruiting tools, HR professionals can post jobs and track applicants for thousands of jobs in various locations all in one place. Interview feedback, [[background check]]s and [[drug test]]s, and [[onboarding]] can all be viewed online. This helps HR professionals keep track of all of their open jobs and applicants in a way that is faster and easier than before. E-recruiting also helps eliminate limitations of geographic location.<ref name=":1" />
