This study was designed to explore the effects of employee recruitment and selection process on organisational performance. The fulcrum and nexus of all business activities hinge on a robust management of its recruitment and selection practices which is sacrosanct to organisational development. A systematic literature review and meta-analysis methodology were adopted for this research by synthesizing a compendium of scientific evidence on recruitment and selection practices. With the application of qualitative and quantitative data analysis techniques, findings were made from 1,428 peer-reviewed journal articles. Stratified and purposive random sampling strategies formed the basis for scrutinising and retrieving appropriate journal articles. Exploratory case study and descriptive research designs constituted the main research paradigms. The study found a significant relationship and a strong positive correlation between recruitment and selection practices and organizational performance. It is recommended that the use of modern technology in the recruitment and selection process will ensure business effectiveness and efficiency. Furthermore, the implementation of a social media strategy ensures the accessibility of a large pool of talents to choose from. Constantly monitoring the business environment and adherence to regulatory proscriptions and ethical standards is sacrosanct to an effective talent acquisition process. Manual handling of the recruitment and selection process showed vulnerabilities to bribery and corrupt practices, unlike the computerised and digital process which reduces bias and discriminatory practices. The study concluded thus: recruitment and selection is significantly correlated to organisational performance. The study also recognises the challenges faced by organisations in the employment process such as government regulations, managing large volumes of applications, and competition. A further study on the impact of recruitment and selection strategy on organisational performance is vital to close the gaps identified.
