| Synopsis: |
"Biodata" is a book for managers and occupational psychologists involved in the selection and assessment of the workforce. It provides an account of the history and development of the use of biographical data both in the recruitment of employees by organizations and for choosing from current personnel those who should be promoted to a higher level. As well as containing tips for practitioners, "Biodata" is grounded in relevant research literature, offering a comprehensive analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of biodata in different contexts. After cognitive ability tests, the authors find that biodata measures are useful empirical predictors of employee performance. The book provides examples of recent applications and recommendations for use, as well as examples of questionnaires. |
