It starts with the decision to recruit and continues through to the induction and settlement of the new employees (Ed Grimshaw, 2009). Selection covers the process of deciding between a group of one or more candidates who is most suitable for a particular role or organizational profile.

If you promote such a person to manager role, he may find himself lost because his skills are very different
