  • Title: The staff nurse employment interview selection process: judgment and decision errors and how to avoid them. Part I.
    Author: Heslin KA, Faux SA.
    Journal: Can J Nurs Adm; 1991; 4(4):25-9. PubMed ID: 1747380.
    Abstract:
    The employee interview is a complex decision-making process which has a potential effect on the future of the organization. It is in the organization's best interest to ensure that the interview process results in the selection of candidates who most clearly meet predetermined selection criteria. Reliable and valid interviews improve the probability of selecting candidates who are most likely to succeed. A review of employment interview literature is discussed relating to judgement and decision errors, and the reliability and validity of the employment interview. Part II will review the development of a semistructured, employment interview questionnaire which was based on College of Nurses of Ontario Standards of Practice (1984) and staff nurse position description.
