Document Summary

There are 2 main focuses: to categorize new employees into most suitable job type, to predict future job performance. The best tools include tests of job-related skills. Hit hiring a person who will do a job well. Correct rejection not hiring someone who would not do a good job, if hired. False alarm hiring someone who ends up being unacceptable. Miss not hiring someone who would do a good job. Basics of selection: a job analysis must be performed. Identifying job specific knowledge + skills + abilities: employers prioritize into essential abilities, recruit potential candidates, administer selection tests/procedures. Interviews, personal impressions, and reference letters are poor predictive measures: can be more predictive using structuring methods . Questions should be related to knowledge and skills. Ask applicants to describe previous work behaviours. Tell me what you know about the airline industry : more predictive than ability tests. Sit down and complete this questionnaire : 2 personality measures.
