Abstract
Among the responsibilities of Human Resource Department is selecting the right
people for the available job. This task tends to be the most challenging due to
necessity to make tough decisions under uncertainty. To minimize error
occurrences and complexity of the selection process, Technique for Order
Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) method is adopted together
with fuzzy TOPSIS and Fuzzy set theory to provide solutions to Multi-criteria
decision making (MCDM) problems associated with human resource selection
(HRS) process. The proposed framework of Integrated Decision Support System
for Human Resource Selection using TOPSIS based models was constructed and
presented in this paper.
Keywords: Human Resource Selection, Decision Support System, TOPSIS,
Fuzzy TOPSIS, Fuzzy Set theory
1. Introduction
Human Resource Selection (HRS) is considered to be a process carried out by an
organization to recruit new potential employees, thereby contributing greatly in
achieving company’s objectives [1]. Every organization is defined according to
