Applicant reactions and their consequences: review, advice, and recommendations for future research
聚焦求职者对招聘和选拔程序反应的后果,回顾现有研究、提出总结模型,并为组织领导者提供管理建议及未来研究方向。
Recent years have seen an abundance of research addressing applicant reactions to personnel recruitment and standard selection procedures. However, most of this research focuses on isolating the determinants of these reactions rather than on their consequences. For example, just because an individual perceives a selection procedure as unfair, does this actually have any impact on the organization? In an attempt to fill this void in the literature, the current paper focuses on the outcomes and consequences of applicant reactions to personnel selection procedures. Specifically, the current paper (1) reviews the extant research on the consequences of applicant reactions, (2) advances a summative model of existing theory and research, (3) provides recommendations to organizational leaders who are concerned about the impact of applicant reactions to their personnel selection procedures, and (4) discusses directions for future research that will better substantiate these recommendations given to organizational leaders.
