| Summary: | This paper is based on research that was conducted at the International Islamic University Malaysia (!!UM) on recruitment and selection process. The paper's aims are to ascertain whether responsibility for recruitment and selection is shared between HRM specialists (Management Services Division) and line management (Deans, Departmental Heads and faculty executives), and whether there is evidence of increasing devolution of this responsibility to line managers. The paper intends to explore the methods of recruitment and selection that are in use at the university. The paper also intends to describe elements of recruitment and selection activities at the University and upon identification of any deviation to the theories of the two processes, recommendations will be made that could help the management to efficiently and effectively perform these activities. In advancing this aim, the researcher will put much emphasis on what most of the human resource writers consider sound principles for the practice of recruitment and selection activities in comparison with the practical experience of the !!UM. Using both qualitative and quantitative data, the findings obtained from this study reveal that there is evidence that the University is consistent with staffing practices as HR theorists suggest. There is also evidence that the responsibility of recruitment and selection at the University is shared among the HR Specialists and the line management.
