Abstract
This paper empirically examined staff recruitment and its effect on
organizational performance. In doing this, the sources of labour market;
factors that could affect labour market; and the usefulness of adequate
identification of labour market sources for the enhancement of organizational
performance through effective staff recruitment were identified and discussed
using the Z-test population proportion (two samples), with a 95 percent
confidence level. The findings showed that for organizations, whether in the
public or private sector to achieve its goals and objectives of profit
maximization in the private sector and efficient provision of social amenities
to enhance the standard of living of the people in the public sector, the issue
of adequate identification of labour market sources from where competent
staffs could be secured within a short time to carry out the work of the
organization without disrupting the smooth running of organizational
activities, must be taken with all seriousness. Organizations must strive to
evolve internal staff training and development programme for their staff to
enhance their performance
