Question:

Traditionally, hiring decisions were primarily based on the extent to which an applicant’s qualifications fit the job. In other words, the focus has been on hiring the person who, based on information collected through the selection process, was expected to best perform the job. To what extent do you think an applicant’s fit with the social responsibility commitments of the organization should be considered? If, for example, person/organization fit is to be considered in the selection process, should this fit assessment be given weight equal to that of expected job performance? Or should fit be given less weight or somehow taken into account in another way in the selection process?
