Recruit; utilise (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

employ

I believe this is a double definition.

'recruit' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'utilise' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

(Other definitions for employ that I've seen before include "Use or give job to" , "Take on - recruit" , "Utilize" , "Put to use" , "Use or take on" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
