Effective recruitment and selection policy is a necessary tool employed by organizations to acquire the needed manpower requirements in an organization. The purpose of this research study is therefore to examine the relevance of recruitment and selection process to achieve the goals of an organization, taking Ihiala south local government area of Anambra State, as case study. The research design is both case study and survey. The population of the study is 80, out of which a sample size of 40 was drawn. Simple percentages were used to analyze and verify the research questions asked. The major finding was that recruitment and selection were not given a serious thought as unqualified people were engaged.
