In addition, the selection process of two Chinese Joint Ventures is reviewed. The paper emphasizes the importance of conducting structured job relevant, behaviour or situation based interviews, with pre determined guideline answers and examples provided. The research showing the increased predictive validity of using this type of interview format is presented. The types of outcomes sought by Canadian employers and the attributes employees or agents should possess are provided. It is argued that these should serve as the basis for creating the interview format. The use of testing and reference checks is also discussed.展开更多
