AN APPROACH TO PERSONNEL SELECTION IN THE IT INDUSTRY BASED ON THE EDAS METHOD
Darjan Karabasevic, Edmundas Kazimieras Zavadskas, Dragisa Stanujkic, Gabrijela Popovic, Miodrag Brzakovic

ABSTRACT. The evaluation of personnel in the process of recruitment and selection represents a problem that can be solved by applying multiple-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods. The selection of quality personnel and, above all, the competent and motivated employees who can resist all the business challenges of today, poses a problem which is seriously approached by every organization, because the development of an organization depends on the employees who work there, i.e. on their competencies, motivation and commitment. Therefore, one approach based on the EDAS method is proposed in this manuscript. The SWARA method is utilized in order to determine the weights of the criteria, whereas the newly-proposed EDAS method is used to determine the ranking of the alternatives, i.e. candidates in our case. The usability and effectiveness of the proposed EDAS approach is considered in the conducted empirical application of the proposed model for the selection of IT Business Systems Support (BSS) Experts.
