BU354 Chapter Notes - Chapter 7: Structured Interview, Unstructured Interview, Job Performance
Document Summary
Selection the process of choosing among individuals who have been recruited to fill existing or projected job openings. Selection begins when a pool of applicants has submitted their resumes or completed application forms as a result of the recruiting process. Candidates must fit with the strategic direction of the organization. Human rights legislation in every canadian jurisdiction prohibits discrimination in all aspects, terms, and conditions of employment on such grounds as race, religion or creed, colour, marital status, gender, age, and disability. Certain vacant positions may be subject to a labour shortage, while other vacant positions may be subject to a labour surplus. Selection ratio- the ratio of the number of applicants hired to the total number of applicants. A small selection ratio such as 1:2 may be indicative of a limited number of applicants from which to select, and it may also mean low-quality recruits, and vice versa for a large selection ratio such as 1:400.
