Abstract:

The aim of this conceptual paper is to explore the issues affecting the importance of employee selection processes within the “Halo Effect” context. It’s so obvious that employee selection process will determine the quality of new hires and organizational success, or failure and it is also dependent on the talent pool of the candidates. First, if a total and exact image of a job isn’t developed beforehand, it will be so complex to choose and hire excellent employees. Therefore, if the modern and scientific principles in employee selection applied and the employee selection procedures are properly designed, it can save organizations a lot of money. However, differentiating between applicants to identify and hire those with a greater likelihood of success in a job by avoiding halo effect is very important for organizations for both in daily operations and organizational long-term success. In sum, in this paper, the process of employee selection will be outlined, effective interviewing and recruiting techniques and choosing the right candidate for the vacant job will be discussed.
