Recruitment of managers for health care services is seen as an important piece of the puzzle in order to find the right candidates who have the skills needed to lead and develop operations that ensure the welfare. The purpose of this study is therefore to investigate what the latest research in recruitment shows and for this reason evidence-based recruitment has been selected as theory. The purpose is thus to see what an evidence-based recruitment can contribute to the recruitment of managers within health care services. The study is carried out using a qualitative method to analyze the composed material, which consisted of available research and literature, as well as semi-structured interviews with four people who work with the recruitment of managers within health care services. The results of the study have been categorized and then analyzed using the analytical framework developed in this study. The result of the study is that managerial recruitment is complicated and a conclusion that can be made from this study is that the methods advocated by the evidence-based recruitment are based on evidence which essentially means that they are methods supported by research and practice and shown to give results. / Rekrytering av chefer till hälso- och sjukvården ses som en viktig pusselbit för att kunna hitta rätt kandidater som har de kompetenser som behövs för att kunna leda och utveckla verksamheter som säkrar välfärden.

Resultatet i studien har kategoriserats och därefter analyserats med hjälp av den analytiska ram som tagits fram i studien. Resultatet av studien är att chefsrekrytering är komplicerad och en slutsats som kan göras av denna studie är att de metoder som förespråkas av den evidensbaserade rekryteringen bygger på evidens som i grunden betyder att det är metoder som med stöd av forskning och praktik bevisats ge resultat.

Abstract  Background: In Indonesia and around the world, gender discrimination in employment practices is a pervasive and ongoing issue due to gender stereotypes and social norms. Organizations must therefore be aware of their influence, and how they through various stages of the recruitment process can reduce this prejudice. Additionally, organizations need to be conscious about how they can create and sustain an inclusive hiring procedure that leaves no one behind.  Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore what type of impact recruitment can have in terms of gender equality, equal opportunities and discrimination for working women in Indonesia. Furthermore, to investigate what impact gender stereotypes and social norms in Indonesia have on the recruitment processes in the country.   Method: This study adheres to an inductive approach with a qualitative research method. The empirical findings have been gathered through the conduction of nine interviews with employers at a consultancy company in Indonesia.  Conclusion: The conclusion of this thesis shows that recruitment can have a positive impact for gender equality in Indonesia and that a strategic recruitment process can help to develop gender stereotypes and social norms. However, there is a limit in how much recruitment can act as an equality tool since they do not always hold the final word on who to hire.
