I initially carried out an explorative study of e-recruitment practices in Danish organisations . From the very start of the inquiry, however, it became clear that the introduction of e-recruitment to the recruitment process had affected the way the companies organise their recruitment activities. Among other things, there were a number of changes in the sequence and nature of some recruitment tasks and subtasks, which have not previously been reported in the literature. These observations led to the following research question of the present study: How does the introduction and use of e-recruitment affect the design of the traditional recruitment process, and what are the consequences of this for recruiting organisations? To answer this, I used the case study method to examine the recruitment processes at three large multinational companies in Denmark during 2008-2010. The case companies had extensive experience in the use of e-recruitment practices. In order to identify how e-recruitment had affected the overall design of the recruitment processes, I first identified the design of the traditional recruitment process as reported in several research contributions . I then interviewed recruitment professionals from the case companies, asking how they had performed recruitment tasks before and after the introduction of e-recruitment in their organisations, and how they had perceived the changes. To better understand the overall recruitment process, I also carried out interviews with their collaborative partners, e.g. technology providers. I then compared my findings with the academic litera
