Abstract
In this paper we analyzed the employee recruitment process in Serbian financial sector, with special attention on two frequently utilized methods: the employee referrals and close relationship with educational institutions. At the beginning of the paper the theoretical aspects of the recruitment process itself will be observed by referring to other authors’ findings, with an emphasis on two above named methods. In the second part of the paper we will present the results of the research conducted within Serbian financial institutions which will give more insight to recruitment practice in this sector. Special contribution of this paper to the conference is the attempt to prove the existence of established links between educational institutions and the industry through the process of dissemination, which in return guarantees that student after completing undergraduate studies, are equipped with skills needed by employers
