“…As this study is the second part of an ongoing research project outlined earlier by Rozario and Venkatraman [18], this paper focused on identifying the dominant factors of the selection decision based on the existing processes with the current use of systems and technology by the various organisations operating in the Australian TAFE/dual education sectors within urban and regional Victoria. This research assumed the Applicant Attribution-Reaction Theory (AART) framework by Ployhart and Harold [24], which is a model integrating attribution theory into applicant reactions.…”

“…Previous research has established the critical aspects of a selection process from the perspectives of both hiring members and applicants [18]. Based on the results obtained, the platform was set in this study to explore further the identification of the dominant factors to be considered for improving the selection process of recruitment systems.…”

With the latest advancements in information technologies, many organisations expect systems to provide effective support in the recruitment process and decision making. However, there is a lack of clarity on the dominant factors required for an effective recruitment system which can influence business outcomes. This paper aimed to identify the predominant factors in the employee selection process and the use of a management system for decision support. The empirical study consisted of a qualitative survey of 74 samples and a quantitative survey of 204 individual participants from 17 organisations coming from technical and further education (TAFE)/dual education (higher education and vocational education) sector members of the Victorian TAFE Association in Australia. Using commonly adopted exploratory factor analysis (EFA) of 38 variables, the data triangulation of the qualitative and quantitative analysis resulted in conformance of five dominant factors under three themes. We believe the results of the study offer actionable suggestions in developing an effective recruitment system and furthers the research in this field of study.

“…This study focuses on current and past employees from 17 TAFE organisations in Victoria. This research aims at continuing work from existing works of literature and explore further along the same lines to understand the selection decisions in the interview process from an Australian context [7]. As the second part of this research, further investigation is carried out to study if there is any potential to increase the objective elements in selection decisions while retaining the necessary elements of subjective hiring decisions as obtained from the first part of this study [8].…”

The first three pillars of sustainability relating to economic, social and, environmental domains are being investigated extensively with regards to corporate sustainability with a focus on reporting methods and corporate responsibilities that contribute to the overall corporate strategy. However, there is a lack of research pertaining to the human domain which is the fourth pillar of sustainability, especially from a talent acquisition perspective in improving human capital. The objective of this paper is related to addressing this paucity in research by adopting an exploratory study on the existing employee selection processes in practice using a mixed-method approach. This paper focuses predominantly on the qualitative data from various key stakeholders and uses thematic analysis to study the interview processes. The objective is to present the findings that could contribute towards shared values related to corporate sustainability through reinforcement of the best practices in talent acquisition as well as the establishment of maximum transparency in the process. The findings from this paper are rooted on the grounds of a social initiative that provides a conceptual decision model called DSRVG approach to enhance transparency and improve structure and consistency during the employee selection interview which in turn can contribute towards enhancing corporate sustainability.
