What are the advantages and disadvantages of job recruting via advertisement?

Question

Give the answer in about 200 words.

Answer 1

How else would you recruit? You have to advertise. I guess the only other option is to hire friends and family.

I work at a company right now where many of the people here are friends or family of the owner. Several people have been hired from advertisements. I don't think it really matters as long as you have a good interview process.
