The method that Tanglewood currently uses to hire managers is similar to the method that is used to hire store associates. I feel that a change is required when it comes to the selection plan if Tanglewood expects to hire the best employees out there. The department manager position requires that the potential employees take on a greater responsibility, and perform their work more intelligently. So in order to accomplish that, and hire employees that will perform those types of duties, Tanglewood must tailor our selection methods to match the specific KSAO’s that are required for the position. The more closely we measure the applicants KSAO’s to match to what is required for the position at hand the better results we would produce.

The current method used to hire external managers is very similar to the selection to store associates; however to hire the best employees, each position’s selection process should be tailored to match the specific skills, knowledge, and abilities needed for each job. It is important to closely match the ways in which we are measuring our applicants, along with the specific tasks needed for that position.

The role of human resources has historically been confined to mundane administrative tasks related to payroll and benefits administration. However, modern science, psychology and technology reveal the importance of recruiting the right person for a specific position.

Meaning that, it is vital that recruiters and human resources look beyond a resume or job networking site profile and more so at the person’s life experience, attitude, culture, and background.
