[edit] Loudness Recruitment

Would anyone object to an addition for all definitions of recruitment? I'm going to be putting a page for "Loudness Recruitment" together soon, and would like to link to there from this page.

Examples (from: http://www.answers.com/recruitment?cat=health & http://www.encyclopedia.com/doc/1O87-recruitment.html ):

A serial discharge from neurons innervating groups of muscle fibers.

A symptom of certain forms of hearing disorder in which there is a greater than normal increase in loudness with increasing stimulus intensity, resulting in a distressing exaggeration of loud sounds, while soft sounds may be comfortably audible. Also called loudness recruitment.

An increase in the number of neurons firing as a stimulus is prolonged.[From French recroître to reinforce, from Latin recrescere to grow again, from re- again + crescere to grow]

[edit] Disagree

Recruitment and staffing are different

Staffing function deals with allocating internal resources to various projects. Recruitment deals with attracting job seekers into the company

[edit] Completely disagree

Staffing is not a type of recruitment. They are essentially completely different Services. To staff is to provide temporary employment to satisfy a specific corporate need. It is transient and not permanent. To recruit is to permanently retain talent. They are two opposing and equal subjects. similar to renting and buying a home. One is transient, the other permanent.


Also this should not be under Human resources. Again they are completely different roles. Recruitment and Staffing are services that Hr can utilize but does not necessarily fall under their scope and mandate. Recruitment can but staffing will absoloutely not. IF you would like to choose an umbrella category for recruitment and staffing then I suggest "Outsourcing" —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bananaman4u (talk • contribs) 04:13, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
