Question:
Consider the problem of a man who has recently earned his Ph.D. and is being interviewed for three jobs. His goal is an overall job satisfaction. He is considering the following criteria: Research, Growth, Benefits, Colleagues, Location, and Reputation. The priority vector for the major criteria is given below:
Overall Job Satisfaction | Research | Growth | Benefits | Colleagues | Locations | Reputation |
Research Growth Benefits Colleagues Location Reputation | 1 | 1 1 | 1 2 1 | 4 4 5 1 | 1 1 3 1/3 1 | 1/2 1/2 1/2 1/3 1/3 1 |
The following is the priority weights for the alternatives:
Alternatives | Research | Growth | Benefits | Colleagues | Locations | Reputation |
A B C | 0.14 0.63 0.24 | 0.10 0.33 0.57 | 0.32 0.22 0.46 | 0.28 0.65 0.07 | 0.47 0.47 0.07 | 0.77 0.17 0.05 |
Develop the hierarchy, calculate the weights and consistency ratio of the decision matrix and determine which alternative he should choose.
