Question 2:
The top 3 candidates will be Max Renoir, Thomas Reznor and James Heckman based on using the Compensatory Model. When looking at these 3 candidates they are the strongest in the unit weight with 70, 73 and 76 respectively and rational weight with 67.5, 69 and 76 respectively. Reznor and Renior have done well on the testing, conscientiousness and extraversion. Heckman’s testing was not outstanding, but his scores for conscientiousness and extraversion were outstanding which indicates a strong performance and working relationships with others. When looking at the top candidates using the Multiple Hurdle model we see Reznor and Renior again. Reznor has scored high on the testing, but is not quite as strong on the conscientiousness and extraversion. In reviewing the job description and KSAO requirements in screening of these candidates the best method to use would be that rational weights. This method allows for the weights to be assigned properly based on the requirements.
