A Selection Model for Employing Staff in the Public as Well as Private Sector Organisations

The purpose of this paper is to design a predictably valid selection model for employing the most suitable staff in the public as well as private sector organisations. The proposed selection model has four stages namely job analysis stage, competency level assessment stage, probability of success computation stage and selection indicator determination stage. The process of determining the weighted average scores of probability of success of the applicants in the job responsibilities is developed here in this paper for using the same as a selection indicator for employing suitable staff in the job vacancies of the organisations. In spite of some possible errors in the weighted average scores of probability of success of the job applicants in the job responsibilities, the proposed selection model would enable the employers to select the most suitable staff for the organisations with a prediction of future performances in the job and thereby could give a competitive edge to the organisations.
