Features: This is a professional recruitment and selection guide that tells you "how to do it." From advertising, creating job descriptions, to evaluation, and finally to the decision, the entire recruitment and selection process is thoroughly discussed, exploring all concepts related to roles. Whether you like it or not, the concept of roles is important and necessary. Roles are not only a long-standing mainstream topic but also the principle upon which many human resource policies and practices rely, and they build a framework that can integrate and coordinate everything. Roles can not only perform the above functions but also cannot be abandoned overnight. The author conducts academic and applied research on different recruitment and selection methods to understand the effectiveness of each method. Through the author's diverse experiences, the best practices in recruitment and selection are collected from academic and professional research, while also exploring practical approaches to implementing new developments in this field. Each chapter in the book can stand alone, so you can read the chapter you want at any time. Of course, the order of the chapters completely aligns with the recruitment and selection process. To reinforce the content presented in the book, a case study runs throughout the entire book, featuring Fictive Corp—a top-performing foreign food import distributor. You will meet the company's General Manager, Gonzales, HR Manager,·, other colleagues, and professionals such as the psychologist Jack. In this case, they use role standards for recruitment, and the author observes how they proceed, particularly the process of recruiting the head of the purchasing department.
