Selection is the process of choosing the most suitable candidates for a job from a group of applicants. This involves screening applications, conducting interviews, and possibly administering tests to assess skills and suitability for the role.

The aim of selection is to match the right person to the right job. This helps to maximise productivity and ensure a good fit with the business's culture and goals. Effective selection is crucial for building a competent workforce and reducing the costs associated with high employee turnover or poor performance.
