Rekrytoitti

Rekrytoitti is a Finnish verb form meaning that someone recruited someone else. It is the third-person singular simple past tense of the verb rekrytoida, which means to recruit or hire. The word is commonly used in business, HR, and media language to describe completed recruitment actions, often referring to a company or manager as the subject. For example, “Yritys rekrytoitti 15 uutta työntekijää viime kuussa.”

Etymology and related forms: rekrytoida is a Finnish loanword derived from English to recruit. The past tense form rekrytoitti indicates a completed act of recruiting by a subject. Related terms include rekrytointi, which refers to the recruitment process or act as a noun, and rekrytoitu, the passive past participle meaning someone who has been recruited.

Usage and nuance: rekrytoitti focuses on the action and its completion, typically in explicit statements about hiring decisions or results. It is widely used in corporate announcements, job advertisements, annual reports, and news coverage related to staffing. While rekrytointi and other HR terms can be used to describe the overall process, rekrytoitti highlights a specific instance of recruitment.

Note: As in Finnish, rekrytoitti often appears in journalistic and corporate texts and may be preferred in contexts emphasizing action or outcomes, while rekrytointi emphasizes the process itself.
