Sirojuth Tholibin commonly used a bottom-up approach in human resources planning. As a part of the planning process, The institution usually combines unstructured interview and observation methods in job analysis. In recruitment and selection, Sirojuth Tholibin pays more attention to behavioral competencies over technical competencies. Recruitment of committee and teachers usually carried out through the employee referral method. Those recruited and selected are recommendations from previous administrators who understand the background of potential candidates. The placement of new human resources is made based on their respective competencies. Orientation is the responsibility of each department, and the duration is according to the speed of each new individual in capturing new knowledge related to their jobs.
