Title

Pre-Employment Decision Trees: Job Applicant Self-Election.

Abstract

Human resource administration is an instrumental factor in determining the degree of organizational success. This is especially true in the labor-intensive health care industry, which uses teams of health care providers to deliver treatment and services. A key function of human resource management is recruiting, since the quality of health care treatment is positively correlated with the quality of employees. Therefore, the recruiting function can consume a disproportionate share of organizational resources. This article discusses how managers can reduce the amount of resources spent dealing with inappropriate job applicants by using the Pre-Employment Decision Tree, which directs pre-applicants to self-elect to apply or not apply, given the degree of fit between the pre-applicant and the organization.
