Which is more important, fair recruitment or fair relationship?

Opening the relationship between candidates and leaders has little effect on the fairness of recruitment for the time being.

On February 2, 2023, Changjiang Design Group Co., Ltd. released the information of the third batch of employees to be hired by Changjiang Design Group in 2023. In the publicity form, the reporter saw that Zhang Xinran, the recruiter of the group's international company, specifically noted that "this student is the daughter of Chen Jing, the head of the Party and Mass Department of the group".

At first glance, it was another blatant "mistake" in recruitment through the back door. But in fact, it is a statement that Changjiang Group must make according to the requirements of publicity, and it is an expression of willingness to accept social supervision. It should be noted that publicizing the relationship between candidates and leaders is an improvement in recruitment, but its role is very limited under the existing recruitment system.

The fundamental problem of recruitment is fairness. The purpose of publicity is also for fairness. Whether the relationship between candidates and leaders can be made public and whether it can promote the fairness of recruitment remains to be demonstrated. However, there is no doubt that it may bring some potential benefits to candidates because of the relationship. Supervisors may feel some influence on this, but there may be nothing they can do in practice.

What needs to be revised urgently in the current recruitment work is the fairness of all links in the recruitment process. The public content should also focus on these aspects. On the premise that the credibility of recruitment is not recognized by most people, the relationship with leaders may become a bomb to detonate public opinion.

Changjiang Group's efforts to move closer to openness and fairness are worthy of recognition. But unfortunately, this is only a small step in fair recruitment. This is why netizens are still worried that "leading children will appear on the list of candidates" while recognizing that "leading children can of course participate in the recruitment of any qualified unit".

Some suggestions have been put forward to promote fair recruitment, such as "third party recruitment", "reducing interview ratio" and "strictly ranking recruitment according to scores". These suggestions are very good and are very practical measures to solve the problem. Exerting strength in these aspects is a hundred times more effective than opening up the relationship with leaders.
