Meaning and Nature of Staff Selection

  • The number of rejected candidates is usually much greater than the number selected.
  • Selection is a process of matching the candidate with the job, like fitting square pegs into square holes.

Definitions of Selection

  • Dale Yoder defined selection as choosing the most suitable person for the current or future position.
  • David and Robbins described selection as differentiating between applicants to identify and hire those with a greater likelihood of success in a job.
  • David and Robbins also described selection as a managerial decision-making process to predict which applicants will be successful if hired.
