Abstract: Human resource is considered to be the most crucial asset in any organization. With the rapid changes in the business world and increasing competition, organizations are strategizing on how to maximize their use of the human resource to achieve a competitive advantage over other organizations. Schools are not an exception since they are also in competition to provide the best quality students academically, in discipline and the best values acceptable in the society. This study sought to determine the effects of recruitment and selection process on the performance of teachers in Machakos County. The study used stratified random sampling to draw samples from a population of 8 sub-county Teacher service commission directors and 347 boards of management secretaries (principals) and 3019 teachers. A sample size of 346 participants was used in the study. Data was collected using questionnaires for the teachers and interview for the principals and teacher managers. The findings show that there is a positive correlation between teacher’s performance and recruitment and selection. It was also concluded that the teacher service commission had not exploited this as a way of motivating teachers to performance.
