Human resource management is essential for improving employee quality, competence, and performance. Plan International Timor-Leste also recognizes human resources as a core asset, yet it faces challenges in attracting candidates whose skills fully match organizational needs. Observations indicate that some selected candidates do not always meet the required technical capacity, leading the organization to rely at times on international staff for technical support. Some recruits also resign after selection because their roles do not match their expectations or do not fully align with the organization’s mission. This study evaluates the recruitment and selection system using the CIPP model to analyze context, inputs, processes, and outcomes. A qualitative descriptive method with thematic analysis was applied. The findings show that the organization requires highly qualified staff to support its programs, with recruitment inputs guided by job descriptions and person specifications. Recruitment involves several stages, including public job advertisements through digital and local media. Most selected candidates meet qualification standards and contribute effectively to program implementation, although some require additional training and adaptation. Overall, the system is functional but would benefit from strengthening input and process components to more effectively attract and retain qualified talent.
