Common selection procedures: 1. application forms and rsums, 2. references and background checks, 3. selection tests, and 4. interviews.

Assignment:

Your textbook defines selection as "the process of gathering information about job applicants to decide who should be offered a job".

Write a minimum combined total of 300 words to address the following: 1- Outline the steps involved in the selection process.

2- Explain each step, and briefly describe the activities that happen during that phase and the goal of that step of the selection process.

3- Make sure to include information (where appropriate) on job specifications, validation, and bona fide occupational qualifications.

As this example illustrates, selection is applicants to decide who . To make sure that selection decisions are accurate and legally defendable, the EEOC's Uniform Guidelines on Employee Selection Procedures recommend that all selection procedures be validated. Validation is the process of determining how well a selection test or procedure predicts future job performance. The better or more accurate the prediction of future job performance, the more valid a test is said to be. Let's examine common selection procedures such as 11-3a application forms and rsums, 11- 3b references and background checks, 11-3c selection tests, and 11-3d interviews
