Outsource the recruitment and selection function of the human resource division

Karabo Enterprise decided to outsource the recruitment and selection function of the human resource division, to one of the recruitment agencies in South Africa, Kgomotso Holdings. They decided that Kgomotso Holdings is the best organisation to outsource the recruitment and selection division to, based on their thorough knowledge of the recruitment and selection process. Kgomotso Holdings has been nominated as the recruiter of the year, and has won the award for the “Best Placement Company of the Year” at the Bafazi 2021 Annual Awards. Outsourcing the recruitment function to Kgomotso Holdings will enable Karabo Enterprise to recruit employees with specialised skills in supply-chain management. Karabo Enterprise currently has no qualified employees that can conduct a recruitment and selection process for supply-chain specialists in their employment.

Hence, they have outsourced the recruitment and selection function but still have the responsibility to oversee the process from beginning to end. 2 Certain aspects of the recruitment and selection process are still done in the organisation (Karabo Enterprise). This includes determining of remuneration and benefits of the successful candidates, the induction process and the allocation of appointed employees to the appropriate division at Karabo Enterprise once training has been completed. This was decided to ensure that Karabo Enterprise continues to keep abreast of what is happening with new employees in the organisation.

Based on the scenario, apply part two of the two-part model for outsourcing and discuss what decision you could have made regarding what to outsource and indicate which option you think Karabo Enterprise chose or selected or applied. (20)
