    This study on recruitment practices and employee performance in selected branches of National Water and Sewerage Corporation, Kampala was conducted with the main purpose of establishing the relationship between recruitment practices and employee performance. The researcher carried out this study while being guided by four research objectives; to determine the respondents profile in terms of gender, level of education, age, type of education and length of service; to determine the performance and to establish the relationship between recruitment practices and employees’ performance. Literature suggests that although internal recruitment may lead to increase in employees’ productivity as their motivation level increases, saves time, money and efforts, at times internal recruitment refrains the organization from new blood. This means that hiring from outside has to be done through external recruitment. If this can be done in NWSC Kampala, employee performance would be achieved. The study employed both descriptive and correlation research designs.
