As a means of assessing job applicants, multimedia simulations are proving an advanced
alternative to traditional personnel tests. But these technological hiring tools are
not without their challenges. Can they adequately balance hard knowledge with necessary
soft skills? Do they truly measure what is required of the job? Simulations for Personnel
Selection surveys the diversity of this fast-moving field, analyzing key issues in
technology, design and development, and scoring and validation. Accessible to the
non-technical reader as well as the expert, the book provides both context for effectively
implementing simulations and real-world examples of their use in testing for a variety
of jobs and industries. Research findings and practical guidelines range widely, from
data on candidates' reactions to simulations, to tools available to developers, to
considerations for enlisting ready-to-use simulations instead of creating new ones
from scratch. "Simulations in Action" chapters home in on specific skill areas across
the career landscape, including: Designing and implementing software and computer
skills simulations. Measuring contact center skills with multimedia simulations. Interactive
simulations in manufacturing settings. Simulations for service roles. Managerial simulations.
Tracing cognition with assessment center simulations. Equally lavish in technological,
scientific, and business insights, Simulations for Personnel Selection is a prime
resource for academics, researchers, educators and professionals in industrial-organizational
psychology, and for human resource executives, managers, and professionals. Academics
in business and education should find it a valuable addition to their curricula as
well
