Hello All,
Can anyone tell me the difference between IT Recruitment and Non-IT Recruitment?
Recently, I had been to an interview for the position of a Recruitment Manager. After successfully clearing three rounds, in the third round, the person interviewing me mentioned that they want a person with IT recruitment experience. I hold experience in ITES recruitment. This made me feel bad; even though I put in the efforts and cleared the rounds, I could not get the job.
Please enlighten me. Please send your replies to madhu.iy@gmail.com.

Hi
According to my knowledge:
Non-IT Recruitment includes many sector, it’s a very vast field. Sectors like: Banking & Insurance, Retail, Pharmaceuticals/Health care, Aviation, Manufacturing, Chemical/Petrochemical, Construction, Advt./Mass Communication/event Management comes under Non-IT Recruitment.
IT Recruitment is basically for Software Companies. An It Recruiter deals different types of IT requirements i.e. requirements related to different IT skills or technologies such as: Java, .Net, Oracle, SAP, Embedded, Linux, UNIX, HTML, DHTML, and XML etc.
One should have knowledge of all these technologies to work as IT recruiter.

Hi Madhu,
"Can anyone tell me the difference between IT Recruitment and Non-IT Recruitment?"
My colleagues Shree & Dayanithi have given correct views on the same. We thank them for the same.
Please allow me to further comment on the IT recruitments though I am not from this field.
First of all, try to get a broad understanding of the types of companies in terms of:
- Products and services offered
- Product development vs. project development
- Expertise/competencies of these companies - development, testing, consulting, project management, product management, support, etc.
The typical roles and responsibilities in these areas are:
- A high-level understanding of the domains and technologies - this is mainly for resume scanning.
- Understanding the technical terms helps IT Recruiters to assess the candidate's capability and potential by asking the right questions, which is essentially the pre-technical screening.
As far as growth prospects or career are concerned; the IT companies, especially the ones in software development, have requirements for their recruitment teams both at junior and senior levels as overall hiring in these companies is relatively higher both due to new projects coming in and also due to the high attrition rate.
Also, once one understands the industry and technologies well, one can diversify into other HR areas as well, like employee relations, since one begins to understand the employee issues in this sector.
Hope this helps in preparing for future interviews.

Hi Madhu,
IT recruitment is all about Technology Hiring - Java, .NET, BA, QA, Developers, Project Managers, Architects, Analysts, and all the roles that require technical acumen.
On the other hand, non-IT roles typically involve skills unrelated to technology, such as Branch Managers, Sales Managers, HR professionals, Legal personnel, Sales Representatives, Lab Technicians, Manufacturing Engineers, and more.
Even within the same industry, such as Indigo, there is a distinction in the roles they hire for - cabin crews for non-IT positions and software developers for IT roles.
