MMPA6435 WALDEN HR Management Building Capable Workforce Selection Tools After a group of potential applicants has advanced through the recruitment and screening process, the human resource manager must select the best applicant from a group of finalists. Selection techniques such as cognitive ability tests, personality inventories, experience ratings, and interviews can assist managers working in non-profit and government organizations.

For this Discussion, review this week’s Resources. Review Chapter 6 of Human Resources Management for Public and Nonprofit Organizations.

Post your response to either question 1 or question 2 of Exercise 6.2, “Barring Discrimination against Unemployed Applicants” in the course text (page 207). Justify your response based upon the readings and what you have experienced in your government or non-profit organization.
