Hi!
An IT recruiter is a person who generally recruits for BPO/Call center/Technical support/IT-enabled services/Different upcoming blue-chip technology/Developers. Their main area of concern is IT and the recruitment process related to it.
An HR manager or Executive takes care of the entire cycle of HR for an individual employee, like maintaining HRIS, their performance, training & development, and other major issues such as IR, PF, Gratuity, and compensation.
I think this gives you a fair idea.

Why is it that Eafil has discussed the post of recruiter only for the IT industry? Can’t there be recruiters for other industries! So then in this context what is a recruiter?

Hi,
I would like to add something to our discussion. The main thing is that a Recruiter is also a part of HR. A recruiter plays a very important role in an organization, as the type of people (I mean to say the people with positive or negative attitudes) who come within depends on them. If the recruitment of an organization is not good, it will have an adverse affect on the entire cycle.
The main job responsibilities of a Recruiter include identifying the present vacancy and encouraging relevant people to apply for the vacancy. In some companies, they also look into various joining formalities as well.
Now, once the person is in, HR plays a wider role. It all depends on HR whether the person will be able to positively integrate into the organization. As an HR Executive, the job responsibilities include induction, training, grievance handling, and other tasks like leave management, etc.
As a manager, you will be in a responsible position. You will be a key part of an organization. The importance is very much higher for HR when it comes to appraisals, mergers & acquisitions, re-engineering, etc.
So, those are all according to my experience.
Thanks and regards,

Hi,
Recruitment is a part of HR functions, while HR is always on a wider sense because it includes many functions like recruitment, induction, training, policies, appraisals, etc.
Recruitment is a very important part of HR because as a recruiter, one really needs to understand the present need of the company and then, according to that need, fill the requirement.

Hi,
An HR person is involved in the end-to-end recruitment process, whereas the role of a recruiter ends at a certain point, i.e., once the candidate has been offered and accepts the offer.
HR - The company department is charged with finding, screening, recruiting, and training job applicants, as well as administering employee benefit programs.
Recruiter - A recruiter is someone engaging in recruitment, which means to fill jobs or positions within any group or corporation.

Hi Everyone,
Thanks for your replies. This is of great use to me. I have been working as an IT recruiter for 1.8 months. Would it be advisable for me to pursue my MBA at this point in time? If yes, can anyone suggest a good management school that offers part-time or correspondence courses in HR? I reside in Hyderabad.
Once again, thank you for your replies.

Here, you asked a great question and a good answer is: Every organization needs an HR who can fulfill the needs of the organization, such as manpower recruitment. The HR plays a role in technical recruiting. Once a person is recruited, they need complete information regarding the position. The HR explains the functions of the organization (here, they are an HR Functional). Additionally, the HR takes care of the recruited person's rights, allowances, pays, salaries, leaves, holidays, and also needs to cater to all their needs, as well as those of the organization. In this aspect, the HR functions as a Manager (HRM).
In summary, a recruiter is a part of HR. Recruitment in any type of firm involves technical work functions and the management of HR. 🤓
