Mercadona, the famous Spanish company is carrying out an expansion strategy in Portugal. With the opening of new shops in Portugal, it is necessary to hire new staff. The following is an idea for a recruitment campaign for the new shops.

1. Identifying the need In the case of Mercadona, the recruitment process is necessary due to the opening of new shops. Therefore, it would be necessary to identify the number of positions to be recruited (in this case, 180) and then define the roles to be filled and how many positions are available for each of them. You also need to define what personal qualities you are looking for for each position. For the proposed organisation, this step will not be complicated, since it knows in advance, thanks to its experience, what qualities and skills the candidates should have for each position offered. Therefore, the most complicated step will be to quantify how many people are sought for each position. As 180 people are to be hired, we are going to set a target of recruiting 350 people in order to have a better chance of finding the ideal candidate for the positions we are offering. 2. Define the person in charge The human resources team of the organisation will be in charge of this process. 3. Defining the procurement model Let's assume that Mercadona is going to carry out two recruitment methods: external and internal. Also called mixed recruitment. -Internal. For current employees of the company who are interested in promoting internally in the company. This will make the company's staff feel valued by the company and having trained and experienced staff within the new shops will help the organisation.

-Operational functions (stocker, transporter, cashier…). This process will take place directly outside the company, in other words, through an external recruitment process. This type of recruitment will allow the company to add new ways of thinking and approaching problems and an enrichment of the organisation's competencies, as well as an enrichment of the candidate portfolio. For these jobs, Mercadona does not usually require any minimum experience. Candidates are valued for their versatility to perform different tasks within the shops, that is to say, the same person can perform tasks such as cashier, stocker, displayer or stock-taking.
