industry. Recruitment and selection process must strictly consider every labor law to avoid

Job Analysis
Shallow and incomplete or a wrong analysis will lead to job posting that might not accurately
reflect the skills and traits required. There be should a routine job analysis for each position and
create a complete report (Baert et al 2015, p.187).
Narrow Focus
During the selection process, the human resource panel might become too enamored with a
singular quality or talent he expects of a candidate, which can limit the other applicant’s traits
that can aid the organization.
Poor Culture Fit
During hiring and selection applicants might get a position due to their skill but lack qualities
such as friendliness, communication skills and interpersonal skills; that can be observed during
an interviewer. Recruiting and selection panel need to put the two into consideration to prevent
poor culture fits
