The word "招聘" is formed by combining the characters "招" and "聘"; "招" means to recruit or beckon, constructed with the radical "扌" (hand) suggesting action and the component "召" indicating pronunciation, while "聘" means to hire, built with the radical "耳" (ear) historically associated with listening in contractual matters and the component "甹" contributing to sound. Together, they semantically merge to denote the process of recruitment or hiring.
