Document Summary

Supply challenges: selection ratio the ratio of the number of applicants hired to the total number of applicants. # of applicants hired/total # of application= selection ratio: a small selection ratio, such as 1:2 means that there are a limited number of applicants from which to select, and it may also mean low-quality recruits. If this is the case, it is generally better to start the recruitment process over again. It is through job analysis that the duties, responsibilities, and human requirements for each job are identified. Step two: selection testing: testing techniques provide efficient, standardized procedures for screening large numbers of applicant. Reliabiity the degree to which interviews, tests, and other selection procedures yield comparable data over time; in other words, the degree of dependability, consistency, or stability of the measures used. Internal consistency the degree to which responses very together. Validity the accuracy with which a predictor measures what it is intended to measure.
