internal hiring
Promoting existing employees
Internal hiring is the practice of filling job openings with existing employees rather than recruiting from outside the organization.
Companies may post positions internally first, giving current staff the opportunity to apply before external candidates: The company has a strong internal hiring policy for management roles.
The approach can boost morale and retention but may limit fresh perspectives.
