“…It is also worth noting that the survey conducted by Ryan et al (2015) did not assess the prevalence of some important selection tools, such as interviewing and résumé reviewing. Overall, much of the extant selection tool use research is dated (e.g., Rowe, Williams, & Day, 1994;Ryan & Sackett, 1987); focused on highly specific groups, such as industrial and organizational psychologists who were almost all PhD holders (Ryan & Sackett, 1987) or higher level HR employees (Ryan et al, 2015), or focused on broad groups, such as general employees (i.e., not HR practitioners; Mann & Chowhan, 2011); or was conducted only within a specific geographic region, such as Canada (Mann & Chowhan, 2011), Germany (Diekmann & König, 2015), or the United Kingdom (Jackson, Dewberry, Gallagher, & Close, 2018). We will advance the extant knowledge of selection tool use by reporting the results of a new survey of HR practitioners that utilized a geographically representative sampling strategy across Canada and the US.…”
