Abstract

Awareness of the significance of adapting e-recruitment and applying various management strategies has increased in private corporate organizations. This study aims to investigate the institutional perception of e-recruitment adoption in Kathmandu valley, Nepal by employing the notion of Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Self-Disclosure Theory (SDT). Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) and AMOS softwares are used to analyze data gathered from 286 Nepalese private organizations in Kathmandu valley between February 13 and March 10, 2022. The results indicate that private organizations in the Kathmandu valley are wary of completely embracing e-recruitment due to trust and privacy issues. This paper can be seen as an important message to Nepalese Human Resources sector, policymakers, the government and customers. Moreover, it has important theoretical implications explained from the standpoint of TAM and SDT theories. Practically, this is one of the latest attempts to assess and report on the breadth of e-recruitment adoption in Nepal’s private sector.

尼泊尔电子招聘采用的制度认知:来自结构方程模型的证据

私营企业组织越来越意识到采用电子招聘和应用各种管理策略的重要性。本研究旨在运用技术接受模型(TAM)和自我披露理论(SDT)的概念，探讨尼泊尔加德满都谷地企业对电子招聘采用的制度性认知。结构方程模型(SEM)和AMOS软件用于分析2022年2月13日至3月10日期间加德满都谷地286个尼泊尔私人组织收集的数据。结果表明，由于信任和隐私问题，加德满都山谷的私人组织对完全接受电子招聘持谨慎态度。本文可被视为尼泊尔人力资源部门、政策制定者、政府和客户的重要信息。此外，从TAM和SDT理论的角度来解释这一问题具有重要的理论意义。实际上，这是评估和报告尼泊尔私营部门采用电子招聘的广度的最新尝试之一。
