Employee Recruitment and Selection
Employee recruitment and selection has become increasingly challenging in today’s organizational environments. Intense competition among employers demand that organizations continually develop innovative recruitment tactics to identify, appeal to, and employ the best qualified people in their respective industries. Furthermore, organizational success will weaken without the necessary talent to accomplish goals and objectives; therefore, management must make employee recruitment and selection one of its top priorities (Cascio, 2010). The Department of Justice, Bureau of Prisons/Federal Prison System is such an organization that requires innovative recruitment and selection strategies and must compete with other organizations to attract the best qualified people. To illustrate this point, Team C will summarize the department’s job description for Correctional Officer, including position details, job duties, performance standards, and job factors. The team will also seek to identify recruitment and selection methods most likely consistent with the Department of Justice and its strategies to fulfill correctional officer positions. Team C will provide even more clarity with a concept map that summarizes the identified recruitment and selection methods. Finally, in conclusion, the team will provide further rationale for the decisions made with developing these methods.
