What roles should human resource professionals play in staffing decisions? Why? Student response
Human resource professionals should play a significant role in staffing decisions. Within organizations, human resources professionals are the most knowledgeable about policies and procedures. This is because they are usually tasked with instructing new hires on policies and procedures during orientations. They also receive specific training involving hiring practices. HR professionals are trained in the various hiring methods and are able to identify the personality traits that are compatible with the culture of the organization. Additionally, bringing in human resources professionals to review resumes and conduct interviews can free up managers to focus on their responsibilities.
