The contribution of e-recruitment practices to e-recruitment outcomes in Russian companies

Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the impact of e-recruitment practices on e-recruitment outcomes in Russian companies.

Design/methodology/approach

This study uses the quantitative approach based on a survey of a sample encompassing 449 companies in Russia.

Findings

E-recruitment practices are positively related to e-recruitment outcomes. However, e-recruitment usage does not mediate the relationship between e-recruitment practices and e-recruitment outcomes.

Research limitations/implications

The extent to which the findings of this research can be generalized is constrained by a single country and cross-sectional data.

Originality/value

The current study is the first to present the e-recruitment practices, including both internet-based ones and internal technology-enabled solutions, within the overall context of human resource management (HRM) digitalization in the companies and specific HRM outcomes.
