Document Summary
The process through which organizations make decisions about who will or will not be allowed to join the organization. Selection begins with the candidates identified through recruitment attempts to reduce their number to the individuals best qualified to perform the available jobs. At the end of the process, the selected individuals are placed in jobs with the organization. The process of selecting employees varies considerably from organization to organization and from job to job. Company objectives are better achieved by workers who have been properly selected. An incompetent worker is a liability to the company. People have varying degrees of intelligence, aptitudes, and abilities. Labor laws protect employees, making it difficult to fire incompetent and problem employees. Individuals have different interests, goals and objectives in life. Careless hiring is costly and can cause problems to the company, especially to the supervisors and managers who have to deal with the workers.
