Management's Guide to Effective Employment Interviewing
Fair, Valid Methods for Hiring Qualified Personnel
Description:... The intention of the manual is to provide an updated reference source for personnel professionals who want guidance on the legal implications and methodology of applied research as it relates to employment and hiring practices. Several steps are taken in personnel employment: 1) the position requirements and needed skills are determined; 2) a search is conducted within and outside the organization through position advertisement and recruitment procedures; 3) job applicants are assessed through application procedures, personal interviews, and tests; 4) the selected employee is notified, enrolled in benefit programs, and oriented to job and organization policies. Special attention must be given to laws relating to personnel selection. Employers should be aware of legislation that protects against discrimination for minorities, older persons, women, veterans, and handicapped persons. Personnel and employment interviewers must be unbiased with skills in interviewing, counseling, testing, and clerical perception.
