Abstract: Recruitment success or failure hinges on organizational reputation (OR), encompassing both internal and external perceptions, as well as corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities. While existing literature underscores the direct positive impact of formalized CSR on OR and organizational attractiveness (OA), it remains unclear whether personal perceptions of CSR consistency with organizational behavior influence the OR–OA relationship. This study aims to bridge this gap by examining the interplay of CSR in the relationship between OR and OA. Employing a self‐administered survey, data is collected from a diverse sample comprising postgraduate students and working professionals. The findings from this empirical investigation aim to shed light on the nuanced dynamics between CSR, OR, and OA, thereby contributing to the scholarly discourse and informing HR practitioners' decision‐making processes.
