4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent - a geniunely practical guide, 23 Jun 2000
By rod.webb@pdc-online.co.uk (Harrogate, England) - See all my reviews
As someone with over 5 years experience of competency based selection interviewing, I wasn't sure if I would gain much from reading this book. I did - not only does it provide a practical approach to competency based interviewing but it explains the rationale for each step as well, and has given me some new ideas and approaches I can adopt. All this was achieved in a clear and easy to understand way. The chapters on assessment centres have been extremely useful too. This one is definitely remaining close to hand.

5.0 out of 5 stars A new breath for recruitment and selection process in the HR, 6 Dec 1999
By A Customer
In the era of "Strategic Human Resources Management", this study is a new breath for recruitment and selection process.

As written by Wood and Payne, "the book effectively falls into four sections :

* the context of recruitment and selection.

* attracting and sifting candidates.

* assessing candidates.

* decision making and evaluating."

To reinforce and dramatize what they are saying, Wood and Payne are going to run a case study throughout the book.

I highly recommend this invaluable book to HR practitioners.

5.0 out of 5 stars Insightful, 15 Aug 2005
By Darren Priest "Darren" (Longing to be back in Cork) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I've experienced competency based recruitment in my organisation and hated it.I only bought this book to pick holes in the system. However, it has shown me that my organisation is doing an awful lot of things right and that is its implementation that is at fault. This book has given me a real insight into how the system can be improved and also how I can best sell myself within the system. Buy it if you use, implement, or just feel a victim of competency based recruitment.
