ABSTRACT
The study assessed the impact of effective recruitment and selection as a medium for organisational performance in Delta State University, Abraka. A descriptive survey plan was used and data was collected through administration of structured questionnaires to the selected sample of staff at the study organization. Data was presented and analysed with tables and simple percentages while chi-square test was used for test of hypotheses. The research work revealed that effective recruitment and selection plays a major role not only on organisational performance but also in the accomplishment and achievement of organisational goals. Once effective recruitment is adopted by an organisation, the reward of effective recruitment and selection as well as its set goals will be achieved. It was therefore recommended that human resource need must be identified before carrying out recruitment and selection. Good policies and strategies must be formulated recruitment and selection of human resources.
