Document Summary

Selection: the process of choosing among individuals who have been recruited to fill existing or projected job openings. Selection ratio: the ratio of the number of applicants hired to the total number of applicants. Multiple-hurdle strategy: an approach to selection involving a series of successive steps or hurdles. Only candidates clearing the hurdle are permitted to move on to the next step. Must criteria: requirements that are absolutely essential for the job, include a measurable standard of acceptability, or are absolute and can be screened initially on paper. Want criteria: those criteria that represent qualifications that cannot be screened on paper or are not readily measurable, as well as those that are highly desirable but not critical. Reliability: the degree to which interviews, tests, and other selection procedures yield comparable data overtime; in other words, the degree of dependability, consistency, or stability of the measures used. Validity: the accuracy with which a predictor measures what it is intended to measure.
