The Industrial label notates the study of workers' behavior on the job along with personnel selection, promotion, training, pay scale etc. the bottom line is people and personnel. the organizational label denotes the study of organizations as a whole, looking into structure, organizational culture, forces of change, methods of change etc.
Organizational psychology utilizes scientific methodology to better understand the behavior of individuals working in organizational settings. This knowledge is used in a variety of ways to help organizations become more effective. Using Katz and Kahn's definition of organizations, with its defining characteristic, patterned behavior, we can infer that some structure has been imposed on the perspective applicant. From an organizational perspective, this behavior could actually begin in the attraction stage of recruitment. For example, when available jobs are posted, skills required for the job, educational level and hours per week are generally included in the advertisement. By posting this type information, organizations reduce the number of unsuitable applicants. The advertisement per se does not impose structure, but it does inform the applicant about skills and behavior expected for the position. This in turn helps job seekers choose the listing they feel is most compatible to their education and work experience. Use of organizational psychology principles can be viewed as a critical necessity in the recruitment process. These principles are important in the selection of new employees, making sure the applicant "fits" the organization and making sure the organization "fits" the applicant.
Research has shown that applicants are more attracted to organizations they perceive to be compatible with their cultures, values, and personalities. Research also indicates employees report greater job satisfaction when placed in a work environment where other members have similar skills, education, beliefs and values (Jex & Britt). Utilizing the principles of organizational psychology in the recruitment process are most beneficial if the applicant feels the interviewer is knowledgeable about advertised position and if they are treated professionally, with respect. The image organizations portray in recruiting materials, company websites, and advertising is important because it could negatively influence an applicant's opinion of the organization. Negative signals tell the applicant what the organization would be like as an employer (Jex & Britt).

There seems to be a trend, where both industrial psychology and organizational psychology are used interchangeably nowadays. There is the field of industrial-organizational psychology as well, which encompasses both. Industrial psychologists have been concerned with individual factors in selection, placement, job analysis and design, safety and training while Organizational psychologists, on the other hand, have examined the role of interpersonal relations, and individual differences especially in modifying and changing organizations, examining decision making, group dynamics, leadership, organizational development and change. Industrial psychology is labeled as more empirical, experimental and precise as they test and select the best people o match the demands of job, and organizational psychology is mostly labeled as clinical, humanistic and they use more qualitative methods to obtain their data.
