Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Conversely, internal candidates are already part of your workplace, so the time you need to find and engage those candidates is much less. It’s also easier to assess internal candidates because: They’re prescreened for culture fit. Their track record is easily accessible.

Detailed explanation-2: -Internal recruitment is when a business chooses only to advertise a job within their company or only make it available to current employees. The main advantage is that it can save time and money, but it can also serve as a way to develop and motivate employees within your organization.

Detailed explanation-3: -Answer. It’s cheaper and faster to recruit staff internally than it is externally as it leverages employees that you already have. Internal recruitment promotes loyalty and can even improve employee morale as it serves as a reward for existing employees.

Detailed explanation-4: -Having someone from the outside brings in new ideas and new ways of doing things. This can shake up the business. You can cast a wider net to recruit the best workers with the most suitable skills. Relying solely on internal hiring means you could miss the chance to hire people with new skills and ideas.

Detailed explanation-5: -A new employee may bring with them innovative skills and refreshing ideas that could benefit the role and team. An overreliance on internal hiring could also lead to stagnant company culture and employee complacency. Moreover, a talented internal candidate will not necessarily thrive in a new role.
