12 Recruiting Talent Internally
Advantages of a promotion-from-within policy: Capitalizes on past investments (recruiting, selecting, training, and developing) in current employees. Rewards past performance and encourages continued commitment to the organization. Signals to employees that similar efforts by them will lead to promotion. Fosters advancement of members of protected classes within an organization.

13 Limitations of a promotion-from-within policy:
Current employees may lack the knowledge, experience or skills needed for placement in the vacant/new position. The hazards of inbreeding of ideas and attitudes (“employee cloning”) increase when no outsiders are considered for hiring. The organization has exhausted its supply of viable internal candidates and must seek additional employees in the external job market.
