The document describes different recruitment methods used by creative media organizations including national press, trade press, word of mouth, personal contacts, internet sites, and internal promotion. For each method, it provides details on how the method works, advantages, and disadvantages. National press advertising allows targeting audiences and tracking effectiveness but can result in irrelevant ads. Trade press reaches people in a specific industry. Word of mouth relies on employee references but limits the applicant pool. Personal contacts provide familiarity with an applicant but may damage employee morale. Internet applications are convenient but some go unanswered. Internal promotion offers higher pay but an employee may dislike the new role.
