Selection Process Design
In this week’s interactive media, “Test Plan,” you are a human resources consultant asked to design a selection process for a high school teacher position. There can be several components used to construct a selection process, such as multiple-choice job knowledge tests, work samples, personality tests, and portfolios. Organizations use selection processes to maximize validity, minimize adverse impact, and enhance the efficiency of the hiring process (Russell & Peterson, 2007). As the human resources consultant, you must ensure that you meet those needs because they are the basis for meeting professional and legal requirements. As you recommend assessment procedures, you should develop a test plan in which you describe the sequence flow of the selection process.
For this Discussion, review the media in this week’s Learning Resources. Consider how you might sequence the flow of the selection process to ensure that the selection methods are fair and valid.

With these thoughts in mind:
Post by Day 5 a brief explanation of how you might sequence the flow of the selection process for the problem presented in the media. Then, explain what additional information may be needed from the client for you to make an optimal recommendation for a fair selection process.
Your post should be three paragraphs. Be sure to support your postings and responses with specific references to the Learning Resources.
