The recruitment process typically begins with screening applicants to remove those who are unqualified. Shortlisted candidates then complete an application, participate in interviews and employment tests, receive conditional job offers contingent on passing background checks and medical exams, and successful candidates receive permanent offers. The onboarding process for new employees includes orientation to familiarize them with company policies and culture as well as induction into their new roles and initial training.

An applicant may obviously be unqualified to fill the
advertised position, but be well qualified to work in other
open positions.
⚫The Purpose of Screening is to decrease the number of
applicants being considered for selection.

7. Sources utilized in the screening effort:
Personal Resume presented with the job application is
considered a source of information that can be used for
the initial screening process. It mainly includes
information in the following areas:
⯍Employment & education history.
• Evaluation of character.

application for employment. The next step in the selection
process may involve having the prospective employee
complete an application for employment.

name, address, and telephone number. In general terms,
the application form gives a job-performance-related
synopsis of applicants’life, skills and accomplishments.
⚫The specific type of information may vary from firm to
firm and even by job type within an organization.

10. Employment Tests
⚫Personnel testing is a valuable way to measure individual
characteristics.
⚫Hundreds of tests have been developed to measure various
dimensions of behavior. The tests measure mental
abilities, knowledge, physical abilities, personality,
interest, temperament, and other attitudes and behaviors.
⚫Evidence suggests that the use of tests is becoming more
prevalent for assessing an applicant’s qualifications and
potential for success. Tests are used more in the public
sector than in the private sector and in medium-sized and
large companies than in small companies.

11. ⚫Large organizations are likely to have trained specialists
to run their testing programs.
⚫Selection testing can be a reliable and accurate means of
selecting qualified candidates from a pool of applicants.
⚫As with all selection procedures, it is important to identify
the essential functions of each job and determine the skills
needed to perform them.

interviewer and applicant exchange information. The
employment interview is especially significant because
the applicants who reach this stage are considered to be
the most promising candidates.

interview include physical appearance, speaking ability, vocabulary,
poise, adaptability, and assertiveness.

mentioned in the literature is organizational fit. Organizational fit is

which the prospective employee will fit in with, for example, the
firm’s culture or value system.

17. Conditional Job Offer
⚫Conditional job offer means a tentative job offer that
becomes permanent after certain conditions are met.

process so far, a conditional job offer is usually made.

everything checks out – such as passing a certain medical,
physical or substance abuse test – the conditional nature
of the job offer will be removed and the offer will be
permanent.

18. Background Investigation
⚫Background Investigation is intended to verify that
information on the application form is correct and
accurate.
⚫This step is used to check the accuracy of application
form through former employers and references.
Verification of education and legal status to work, credit
history and criminal record are also made.
⚫Personal reference checks may provide additional insight
into the information furnished by the applicant and allow
verification of its accuracy.

19. ⚫Past behavior is the best predictor of future behavior. It is
important to gain as much information as possible about
past behavior to understand what kinds of behavior one
can expect in the future.
⚫Knowledge about attendance problems, insubordination
issues, theft, or other behavioral problems can certainly
help one avoid hiring someone who is likely to repeat
those behaviors.
⚫Background investigations primarily seek data from
references supplied by the applicant including his or her
previous employers.

20. Common sources of background information include:
 References are provided by the applicant and are usually very
positive.
 Former employers should be called to confirm the candidate’s work
record and to obtain their performance appraisal.
 Educational accomplishments can be verified by asking for
transcripts.

21.  Legal status to work.
 Credit references, if job-related.
 Criminal records can be checked by third-party investigators.
 Background checks are conducted by third-party investigators.

offer, the next phase of the selection process involves
the completion of a medical/physical examination.
⚫This is an examination to determine an applicant’s
physical fitness for essential job performance.

23. ⚫Typically, a job offer is contingent on successfully
passing this examination.
⚫For example, firefighters must perform activities that
require a certain physical condition. Whether it is
climbing a ladder, lugging a water-filled four-inch
hose or carrying an injured victim, these individuals
must demonstrate that they are fit for the job.

24. Permanent Job Offer
⚫Individuals
preceding
who perform successfully in the
steps are now considered eligible to
receive the employment offer. The actual hiring
decision should be made by the manager in the
department where the vacancy exists.

25. Notification to Candidates
The selection process results should be made known
to candidates successful and unsuccessful as soon as
possible.
Any delay may result in the firm losing a prime
candidate, as top prospects often have other
employment options. As a matter of courtesy and
good public relations, the unsuccessful candidates
should also be promptly notified.
