Moreover, organization will face less of absenteeism and employee turnover problems. By selecting the right candidate for the required job, the organization will also save time and money. Proper screening of candidates takes place during the selection procedure. All the potential candidates who apply for the given job are tested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But selection must be differentiated from recruitment, though these are two phases of the employment process. Recruitment is considered to be a positive process as it motivates more of candidates to apply for the job. It creates a pool of applicants. It is just the sourcing of data. While the selection is a negative process as the inappropriate candidates are rejected here. Recruitment precedes selection in the staffing process.

Preliminary interviews are also called screening interviews.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Application blanks-<\/strong> The candidates who clear the preliminary interview are required to fill the application blank. It contains data record of the candidates such as details about age, qualifications, reason for leaving previous job, experience, etc.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Written Tests-<\/strong> Various written tests conducted during selection procedure are aptitude test, intelligence test, reasoning test, personality test, etc. These tests are used to objectively assess the potential candidate. They should not be biased.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Employment Interviews-<\/strong> It is a one to one interaction between the interviewer and the potential candidate. It is used to find whether the candidate is best suited for the required job or not. But such interviews consume time and money both. Moreover, the competencies of the candidate cannot be judged. Such interviews may be biased at times. Such interviews should be conducted properly. No distractions should be there in the room. There should be honest communication between the candidate and the interviewer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Medical examination-<\/strong> Medical tests are conducted to ensure the physical fitness of the potential employee. It will decrease the chances of employee absenteeism.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Appointment Letter-<\/strong> A reference check is made about the candidate selected and then finally he is appointed by giving a formal appointment letter.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center has-content-secondary-color has-content-primary-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-heading\"><strong>Practice Questions<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q1.
