In modern management, selection refers to the use of certain tools and means to conduct on-the-spot investigation or resume evaluation of candidates who are willing to apply for a job, so as to finally select the most suitable and matching personnel of the organization.
The complexity of the selection process lies in that the organization needs to correctly judge whether the job seeker can meet the requirements of a certain position or a certain type of position in the organization in a relatively short time under the condition of asymmetric information, and whether the job seeker is consistent with the culture and values of the organization, so as to achieve excellent performance in the future work.
In the actual selection management, the most common misunderstanding is that in the face of a group of job seekers, the selection criteria of recruiters are not the best match, but the best people.
What the choice means to the organization:
Personnel selection is very important for an enterprise, and excellent, matching and meeting the needs of the enterprise is the most fundamental guarantee to ensure the realization of the strategic objectives of the organization.
In modern enterprise management, whether to find the right person to undertake all the work that the organization must complete is the key factor to determine the core competitiveness of the enterprise. Only people with relevant knowledge, skills and experience, strong working motivation and correct working attitude can be hired.
At the same time, employees who are highly consistent with the organization's culture and values can ensure that the organization's customers get first-class products and services, thus ensuring the achievement of the organization's strategic intentions and the realization of business objectives. An excellent organization must have first-class employees, and to cultivate first-class employees, we must choose the right people from the beginning, not the best people.
However, many enterprises always think that they should recruit the best and most capable people to adapt to and accept corporate culture, but in fact, the overall cost paid by enterprises to transform employees' values and cultural views is incalculable, especially in terms of opportunity cost.
Therefore, many management scientists clearly point out that employees' professionalism, dedication and good performance realization ability are not formed after employees enter the organization, but before employees enter the organization.
