"Is really recruitment requires out of box thinking?"

everybody follows the routine like searching in portals. But a successful recruiter is one who uses different methods which other recruiters do not follow. hence i would support this statement

Strictly speaking there is nothing out of box thinking in a pure concept. Thinking different from the standard procedure and proven methods is only a matter. Improving the existing methods and innovating some other methods from previous experience where the efficiency will increase and the results are achieved in a better way and fast. That's it! As some one said you need to have an experience and need to be in the shoe than only you can have the realty and one should not be like our IAS bosses- thinking about the ground realities by sitting in the A/C rooms and nothing really works. The greatest blunder now happening is the Mahatma Gandhi Grameena Rojagar Yojan - it is the out box thinking of the blue eyed boy rather young here Rahul Gandhi. the whole program lead to a crisis in the country, lead to inflation, lead to crisis in the agriculture sector due to shortage of labour. Lead to wastage of Money of central government, which is spending a whopping 1.4 Lakh crores this year! with out any out put. This type of out of box thinking is not only useless and dangerous. So I mean that what ever may be the thinking it should be a realistic one and not a fancy one
