Abstract

Bu çalışma, insan kaynakları yönetiminde işe alım sürecinin insan kaynağının edinimi aşamasında sembolik algılamanın etkisi ve gücünü ortaya çıkarmak amacıyla yapılmıştır. Araştırma, endüstri alanında faaliyet gösteren bir işletmenin ihtiyaç duyulan pozisyonu için açılmış olan iş ilanına başvuran adaylar arasından belirlenen toplam 73 katılımcıdan mülakat yöntemiyle toplanan verilerle gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu kapsamda, birinci uygulama için 38 katılımcıya 6 maddelik açık uçlu sorular sorulmuştur. Çalışmanın ikinci uygulamasında ise, 35 katılımcıya 5 maddelik açık uçlu sorular iletilmiştir. Nitel araştırma yöntemi uygulanmış olan bu çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre, işe alım süreci kapsamında insan kaynağı ediniminde sembolik algılamanın önemli bir rol oynadığı görülmüştür. Ayrıca çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre, işe alım sürecinde uygulanan tekniklerin adayların algısına göre değiştiği ve sembolik algılama ile beklenenden farklı sonuçlar verdiği görülmüştür. Bu kapsamda araştırmada ortaya çıkan sonuçlar tartışılarak insan kaynakları yöneticilerine ve diğer uygulamacılara önerilerde bulunulmuştur.
