What does it mean when a company recruits people from the same place?

The company recruits people from the same place for several reasons: First, the company leader may intentionally authorize the recruitment of people from a certain place in order to change the economic conditions of people in a certain place. Secondly, the people recruited by the personnel management are predestined and have a close relationship with the local people. Thirdly, the local people may be recruited because the economic conditions are not good and the salary requirements are not high. Fourth, some companies must be recommended by insiders when recruiting people. The recommended people are basically their acquaintances, neighbors, friends, and relatives, most of whom live in a certain area. Fifth, recruiting people from a certain place is convenient for better management. Everyone is together, the interpersonal relationship is relatively familiar, and communication is easy, which is conducive to work and leadership.

If a company recruits people from the same place, it must be under the direction of the company boss. There is no doubt about this.

This kind of business usually has a very obvious label, that is, "family business".

I have been in contact with several companies, and the situation is similar to what you said. One company among them left a particularly deep impression on me.

This company specifically recruits people from their own city. There are fifty or sixty people in the company. They usually speak in dialects. We eat around a table, with eight people at a table, four dishes and one soup, and the portions are very generous. The boss hired two people to farm the land (there is a large open space behind the company, which was developed into a vegetable garden). He never buys the vegetables he eats outside, but grows them himself. He also raises four pigs, which are killed during the holidays. Extra meals.

I chatted with them because of business relations, and they were very proud of it. It gave others the impression that they were very united.

Because it is a processing factory and the technical requirements are not particularly high, they often recruit people from the mainland. Sometimes we recruit from outside, but usually we can't keep them. Recruitment basically relies on internal introductions.

Of course, there are also situations where other companies have limited recruitment of people from anywhere. For example, during the epidemic, some companies issued recruitment slogans, giving priority to hiring people from Hubei, and welcoming people from Hubei.

It is not ruled out that some of this is speculation, but these business owners usually have a good intention, that is, to create employment for people in their hometowns.

This approach actually has disadvantages, that is, it is not conducive to the long-term development of the company and cannot bring new blood to the company. At the same time, all the rights of the company will be in the hands of family members, which is also very detrimental to the management of the company. of.

Firstly, the people in this place are talents in this field and are needed for the development of the company. Secondly, they practice favoritism and cheat and use relationships. Thirdly, they are family businesses.

The main members of a company are all from the same place, which means that the company may be a group of foreigners with good relationships starting a business locally. This makes sense.

I have seen some Zhejiang bosses set up factories in other places. The core personnel in the factory, including those in finance, are all from the boss’s hometown.

Many processes in start-ups are not formalized and rely mainly on people, so people in core positions must be reliable. Therefore, some bosses reuse their relatives and fellow villagers, which is understandable.

But what about after starting a business? What does the company need to grow and develop? At this time, it is unwise to recruit people from the same place. It has the following disadvantages:

1. The recruitment scope is very narrow.

Even if you recruit people from Northeastern China in Beijing and Anhui people in Shanghai, the choice will be relatively narrow, because if your competitors do not pay attention to geography, they can recruit people from anywhere. On one point, the first one wins.

If you are not in a first-tier city, your recruiting opportunities will be even smaller.

2. Keep talents out.

A company needs talents to grow, and it is unwise to set limits when recruiting people.

Which of the successful entrepreneurs and politicians in history was not a meritocracy? On the contrary, during the Republic of China, many warlords liked to reuse local people, but all of them failed.

If there is a talent who can be of great help to the company, but he is not from the same hometown, should we still recruit him? If you don’t recruit, the company will miss out on talents. If you recruit, the talents may not be able to integrate into the team once they arrive at the company.

In addition, the company only employs people from the same hometown, which gives the impression that it is an out-of-town company, and people from other places do not want to join.

If a company wants to develop and grow, the first step is to recruit talents. However, the company leaders are so narrow-minded in terms of employment, and I am afraid that the company will not be able to grow.
