Abstract

CANOS, Lourdes et al. Personnel selection based on fuzzy methods. Rev. Mat [online]. 2011, vol.18, n.1, pp.177-192. ISSN 1409-2433.

The decisions of managers regarding the selection of staff strongly determine the  success of the company. A correct choice of employees is a source of competitive  advantage. We propose a fuzzy method for staff selection, based on competence  management and the comparison with the valuation that the company considers the  best in each competence (ideal candidate). Our method is based on the Hamming distance and a Matching Level Index. The algorithms, implemented in the software  StaffDesigner, allow us to rank the candidates, even when the competences of the  ideal candidate have been evaluated only in part. Our approach is applied in a numerical example.

Keywords : fuzzy sets; personnel selection; management competences.
