Examining the Bibliometric Trends of Green Recruitment and Selection (GRS)

Abstract

The domain of green recruitment and selection (GRS) has experienced considerable growth and interest in recent times, significantly impacting both business and academia. This research conducts an extensive analysis of green recruitment scholarship spanning from 2015 to 2024, employing bibliometric analysis methodologies. Utilizing data sourced from the Dimensions database, the study identifies emerging research patterns, pivotal themes, and influential scholars in this area. Findings unveil a notable upsurge in green recruitment literature originating from 54 nations, underscoring its global acknowledgment and relevance amidst escalating environmental awareness. Nonetheless, the study acknowledges certain limitations, including dependence on a single database and challenges posed by researchers sharing identical names. Future research avenues are suggested, stressing the importance of cross-cultural and interdisciplinary investigations to deepen the understanding of green recruitment dynamics. Additionally, recommendations are put forth for leveraging alternative databases and sociograms to enrich the scope and diversity of research within this burgeoning field.
