The Scientific Approach to Recruitment

When it (20) to selecting candidates through interview, more often than not the decision is made within the first five minutes of a meeting.??Yet employers like to (21) themselves that they are being exceptionally thorough in their selection processes. In today’s competitive market place, the (22) of staff in many organizations is fundamental to the company’s success and, as a result , recruiters use all means at their disposal to (23) the best in the field.

One method in particular that has (24) in popularity is testing , either psychometric testing, which attempts to define psychological characteristics , or ability£aptitude testing (25) an organization with an extra way of establishing a candidate’s suitability for a role. It (26) companies to add value by identifying key elements of a position and then testing candidates to ascertain their ability against those identified elements.

The employment of psychometric or ability testing as one (27) of the recruitment process may have some merit, but in reality there is no real (28), scientific or otherwise, of the potential future performance of any individual. The answer to this problem is experience in interview techniques and strong definition of the elements of each position to be (29) as the whole recruitment process is based on few real certainties, the instinctive decisions that many employers make, based on a CT and the first five minutes of a meeting, are probably no less valid than any other tool employed in the (30) of recruitment.

21.A suggest B convince C advise D believe

22.A worth B credit C quality D distinction

23.A secure B relies C attain D achieve

24.A lifted B enlarged C expanded D risen

25.A provides B offers C contributes D gives

26.A lets B enables C agrees D admits

27. A portion B member C share D component

28. A extent B size C amount D measure

29.A occupied B met  C filled D appointed

30 A business B topic C point D affair

《The scientific approach to recruitment》,招人的科學方法。這篇完型比較簡單。完型填空也有兩種題型,兩種解題思路。一種是從意思上理解然後做出選擇,一種是根據單詞的用法。前者比較容易,後者很考驗語言功底。

21題,理解上下文的`意思。前面說招人時的決定一般是在五分鐘以內做出的。但是僱主們試圖使自己詳細相信他們在挑選過程中是經過了深思熟慮的。Convince oneself,使確信。其他的詞沒有這個用法。

22題,員工的質量對公司的成功是至關重要的。選quality。

23題,招人者試圖利用一切方法來抓住這個領域最好的(人才),secure the best,抓住最好的。realise是實現,attain是獲得,後面不能接人,achieve是實現一個目標。

24題,rise in popularity,固定搭配,popularity是知名度的意思,這個詞組應該可以翻譯成聲名鵲起。

25題,provides with,提供。給組織提供另外一種方法。offer的用法是offer sb sth,contribute在這裏意思不對。

26題,是公司能夠增加價值,enable

27題,這題的意思很明顯,測試(testing)作爲招聘過程的一個組成部分,要區分選項的幾個單詞,尤其是portion和component,看英英解釋。

Component:one of several parts that together make up a whole machine, system etc

Portion:a part of something larger, especially a part that is different from the other parts

這裏強調testing是一個組成部分,沒有說明特殊的地方,選component。

28題,對每個人未來的可能表現沒有一個真正的衡量。選measure。

29題,fill a position,填補空位,fill在這裏的意思是to perform a particular job, activity, or purpose in an organization, or to find someone or something to do this。不能選occupy,因爲occupy更強調人的一種主動,而這裏只是客觀說某個需要填補的職位。

30題,in the business of,也是一種固定的說法,在什麼的過程中。很多場合都可以使用。可以多看幾個例句:

We’re in the business of stimulating the economy(By Obama)

Energetics is a specialist management consultancy in the business of climate change

Team-Based Pay

0 Team-based pay schemes that have been catching the eye of modern employers.

00 Supporters say that they encourage group endeavour and improve 41 organizational performance. But salespeople, typically the most self-motivated

42 of workers, they have traditionally been rewarded according to individual

43 performance. So are team-based schemes suitable ? The key issue is

44 whether team-based pay is more being in line with the organization’s objectives

45 than pay which based on individual achievement. Introducing a team pay

46 scheme can be complex. The biggest problem is for defining the team in the first

47 place. Another is that team pay schemes won’t work if the actions

Of one

48 individual make no impact on those of another. You should need a true team.

49 like a football team. Where all the members are interdependent. When sales staff

50 can be less receptive to team pay schemes because personal motivation can

51 be an important boost to performance What they need is their encouragement

52 to perceive that the wider term of the company overall : production, administration and dispatch all affect each other.

SAMPLE A

This report describes the movements of the balance of trade between 1991 and 2001 , for a particular country, concerning manufacturing and agriculture.

Manufacturing:

Imports increased constantly during this period. The figure shows a rise of $ 4 bn within the whole period and no fluctuations are to be remarked.

Exports rose from nearly $ 3 bn in 1991 to approximately $7 bn in 2001 , suffering minor fluctuations all the way through. In general, the balance of trade remained slightly positive through the period considered.

Agriculture:

Imports increased slightly, ending the period around $1 bn over their starting level. They suffered a temporary fall between 1992 and 1994 , followed by a steady recovery. After peaking at around $2.5 bn in 1999, imports fell slightly to their final value.

Exports figure shows the same performance although at level $4bn higher than imports.

Consequently, the balance of trade remained markedly positive throughout the period.
