Document Summary

When a company or an organization dismisses employees that it no longer needs. Tim is a candidate for an automotive mechanic"s position. He is asked to deconstruct and reconstruct part of an engine motor to demonstrate his skill. This is an example of a performance-simulation test. Is used by organizations as a way of evaluating candidates for a job position. The basic premise of performance simulation test is to observe the candidate perform the actual job in a controlled environment. A test designed to determine a person"s ability in a particular skill or field of knowledge. One disadvantage of employee referrals as a source of job candidates is that it generates unqualified candidates. The various decruitment options available to an organization are: firing - this refers to permanent involuntary termination of employees, layoffs - these refer to temporary involuntary termination of employees.
