Should Examination Results Be A Criteria For Effectiveness At Work?
« on: April 18, 2006, 03:20 PM »

Please could someone discuss this with all recruiting firm ad company that they might be missing their best candidates by setting  criteria before selection.

As a matter of fact, Should examination be the only standard for efficiency and effectiveness?

What about  personality,character, interest and interpersonal relationship.
Does this have to say does of us with loads of talents and innovation can't get a job just because we couldn't show that through our results in school or particular set of tests? Do u know know that their are factors that are responsible for these?(socio-environmrntal, Psychological, low esteem) but it still stands that we might be better than others.
How would u know if we are not given a chance?
From my observation as a jobseeker i know some people are goog practically and some are theoretically.So if u base must on theory and writing before selection then the basis of objectivity as being altered.

Please give us achance to prove ourselves. Cry

I agree with you there my brother. Time and again, it has been proven that the best people in the real world were not really geniuses in school.

It's not hard to cram and output exactly what you were given. The real performers are those who struggle to learn because when they get out, they still struggle and their efforts are rewarded.

Don't cry brother -- prove yourself.

my brother,

It is foolhardy for most highly- rated companies , banks , and multinationals  to always insist on 21, first class, and distinction for their job selection. The argument always aduced to this is that they want to select the best when actually the best in terms of job performance may even be from 22 or third class.   The best option is to throw the job open and  make their selection. One can have 22 or third class because of certain factors but those factors may not prevail in working condition.

I have seen in a place where a 22 material does better than  a first class in working enviroment  Certificate  should not be used as a bases for job selection whether 21, 22. or third class.

Other  oil companies, banks, and multinationals should emulate shell.

perhaps it`s worthy to also mention that the descrinmation doesn`t just end at grades.Even the best brains from the polytechnics are not offered chances,by some of those so called multinationals.But then,the way forward is to carve a niche for oneself.Now that you know,spread the message to the younger generation and above all,aspire to be self employed.Hard work pays!
