Recruitment and Selection

Course Code: HRM 3000

Academic Year: 2024-2025

This course is designed to provide the knowledge and skills required by a human resources practitioner to attract, select and retain an effective workforce that will allow an organization to achieve its goals. It provides an up-to-date review of the current issues and methodologies that are used for recruiting and selection. The field of staffing has become more quantitative and subject to both federal and provincial human rights legislation, so the course will examine the impact of legislation and court rulings on recruitment and selection. Students will be provided with opportunities to explore both the objective and subjective nature of interviews, to evaluate interviewing techniques (behavioural and situational) and to practise interviewing approaches.
