Comment on: Topic 'Will HR and Recruiting stay married?': and what they do "get" is 20 years old. Frankly, when I talk to HR grads about recruiting, I'm scared for the future of the function. To spell it out - that HR has to do everything, like recruiting, because the business would discriminate like the cavemen/cavewomen they are. Another thing I hear, is a focus on being a gatekeeper (keeping people out). Not exactly forward thinking for today's talent wars. "Recruitment" in most corporations, affiliated with HR is run like a mini cost-centre, and if there's any qualitative hope for the function, outside of measuring knuckle-bleeding "cost savings", I would align myself with Finance, over HR, any day of the week. Recruiting is a critical contributor to the bottom line, and I'm not sure giving HR another 30 years to figure it out, is such a great idea. Some will kill me for saying Finance, but let's think about it a little... Why report into Darth Vader (HR) when you can report directly to the Emperor (Finance)? Maybe all of "Personnel" should report into Finance... LOL…; Added by Harold Ensley at 11:13pm on October 13, 2009
