Exactly. Too much time, money, and effort is spent during formal recruitment to only come out with 6 new members in the end. And it especially doesn't make sense if you're getting 12 new members with informal recruitment, which most likely takes up only a fraction of the time, money, and effort of formal recruitment.

As the old adage says: work smarter, not harder.
