Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to provide a framework to understand and predict factors affecting the adoption of e-recruitment practices in organisations. By drawing up theoretical knowledge in human resource management (HRM) and information technology (IT), a framework is developed that delineates the enablers and outcome for the adoption of e-recruitment. It was quite interesting to introduce the population ecology model as the underpinning theory. The authors have identified following enablers of e-recruitment: - environmental factors, cost and time reduction, applicant pool, employer branding and ease of use for applicants and organisations. However, applicant attraction is figured out as one of the vital outcomes of e-recruitment. This study would contribute to the conceptualisation of e-recruitment. Managers may take up the mentioned ideas to develop innovative e-recruitment strategies for attracting future workforce and enhance organisational performance. We have suggested several directions for future research that provides a platform for further exploration.
