If you were in a decision-making capacity, what recommendations would you make to the organization based on the chosen priority?
- Does the organization seek out talent on the basis of general competencies or on job-specific knowledge and technical skills?
What is the benefit of the organization’s chosen method? What are the drawbacks?
- Does the organization seek candidates with exceptional or acceptable workforce quality?
