The purpose of this study was to examine how recruitment and selection processes are conducted at the Robben Island Museum and the challenges associated with it. Correct implementation of the recruitment and selection practices is crucial in order for the organisation to fill the right positions with the right people who are experienced and competent. In other words, organisations should strive for excellence in ensuring that there is conformity to legal prescripts whenever the recruitment and selection of employees commence. A qualitative research design was applied in order to achieve the primary aim of this study. Data collection techniques that were utilised to collect information comprised interviews and document analysis. A group of fourteen (14) purposively selected participants, namely seven operational staff members and seven managers were chosen for interviews. Data that was obtained was analysed through qualitative content analysis. The major findings of the study indicate that the Robben Island Museum recruits potential candidates through various means such as newspaper advertisements, employment agencies, headhunting, job posting and online recruitment. The study found that although qualifications are seen to be necessary during the recruitment and selection processes but do not seem to be seriously considered as part of the selection criteria. Essentially, the study identified some inconsistencies and failure to adhere to the recruitment and selection policy during recruitment and selection processes. Therefore, the processes of recruiting and selecting potential employment candidates should be undertaken in accordance with organisational policies and in a professional manner.
