We explore a number of new developments in the field of employee recruitment and selection with a focus on recent technological developments. We discuss examples of technological developments across the four stages of the recruitment and selection process. In the attraction stage we discuss how on-line/internet recruitment and especially social networking websites have changed dramatically the focus of attracting candidates effectively. In the next stage of screening, we discuss how cybervetting and applicant tracking systems offer opportunities but also threats for recruiters and candidates. In the third stage of employee selection, we focus especially on two new selection methods; the asynchronous/digital interview and gamification/games-based assessment, along with the critical role and impact applicant reactions have on the selection process. Finally, we briefly discuss the main technological developments in on-boarding and socialization, and we conclude with a few suggestions for future research in this field.

技术在招聘和选拔中的作用是什么？

我们探索了员工招聘和选拔领域的一些新发展，重点关注最近的技术发展。我们讨论了招聘和选拔过程四个阶段的技术发展示例。在吸引阶段，我们讨论在线/互联网招聘，尤其是社交网站如何极大地改变了有效吸引候选人的重点。在筛选的下一阶段，我们将讨论网络审查和申请人跟踪系统如何为招聘人员和候选人提供机会，但也带来威胁。在员工选拔的第三阶段，我们特别关注两种新的选拔方式；异步/数字面试和基于游戏化/游戏的评估，以及申请人反应对选择过程的关键作用和影响。
