Oxford Handbook of Personnel Assessment and Selection, Paperback by Schmitt, Neal (EDT), ISBN 0199366292, ISBN-13 9780199366293, Brand New, Free shipping in the US
Employee selection has long stood at the practical forefront of industrial/organizational psychology. Today's social, business, and economic climates require ongoing adaptations by those who select organizations' personnel, and research on the topic helps gauge the impact of these adaptations<br>and their implications for human performance and potential. <br><br><em>The Oxford Handbook of Personnel Assessment and Selection</em> codifies the wealth of new research surrounding employee selection (web-based assessments, social networking, globalization of organizations), situating them alongside more traditional practices to establish the best and most relevant<br>research for both professionals and academics. <br><br>Comprising chapters from authors in both the private sector and academia, this volume is organized into seven parts: (1) historical and social context of the field of assessment and selection; (2) research strategies; (3) individual difference constructs that underlie effective performance; (4)<br>measures of predictor constructs; (5) employee performance and outcome assessment; (6) societal and organizational constraints on selection practice; and (7) implementation and sustainability of selection systems. While providing a comprehensive review of current research and practice, the purpose<br>of this handbook is to provide an up-to-date profile of each of the areas addressed and highlight current questions that deserve additional attention from researchers and practitioners. <br><br>This compendium is essential reading for industrial/organizational psychologists and human resource managers.<br>
