Abstract

This study provides an in-depth comparative analysis of recruitment and selection trends in public and private sector banks in India, focusing on key differences in hiring practices, internal and external recruitment sources, and the role of technological advancements like e-recruitment. A survey was conducted with 600 employees from six banks (three public, three private) to gauge their perspectives on recruitment practices and preferences. Findings reveal that private banks tend to adopt innovative recruitment techniques, including online recruitment, while public banks rely more on traditional, internal recruitment and promotion structures. The study discusses implications for recruitment practices and suggests strategies for optimizing talent acquisition and retention in the sector.
