商品簡介
Rather than relying exclusively on interviews or questionnaires that emphasize self-reported information, companies often use assessment centers as a means of hiring the right person for the job. The centers use a process that gathers behavioral information and relates that information to a standard. Exercised for about 50 years, the assessment center approach is the subject of extensive research and ongoing efforts to get it right. This volume brings together 14 contributions, offering in-depth treatment of what assessment centers do for organizations; core debates in research; and dimension-based, task-based, and mixed-model assessment centers--including theory, implementation, and analyses of these three perspectives.
