There are different techniques for assessing job applications, and opinions vary as to their effectiveness. This book evaluates these methods of arriving at a shortlist and selecting the best person to fill a vacancy. The topics covered include specifying the competencies, screening applicants through advertising and head-hunting, checking CVs and references, testing (psychometric testing, assessment centres, graphology), acceptance and rejection, induction, and review and follow-up.
