AN EVALUATION ON THE PERSONNEL SELECTION CRITERIA FOR THIRD PARTY LOGISTICS COMPANIES IN TURKEY: A QUALITATIVE RESEARCH
Abstract
The objective of this study is to evaluate the current and new criteria for selecting human
resources in Turkish logistics companies. Research methodology includes the semi structured interview
technique with seven open ended questions. Respondents are twenty four representatives of Turkish
logistics companies from Istanbul, Izmir and Mersin.
Research findings indicate that the knowledge, experience, language (especially English), team
working abilities, relationship management and communication skills are still significant and valid
criteria and also they are directly related to the job. In addition to those qualifications, study shows that
personnel in the third party logistics companies must have cultural awareness, easy adaptation to
changes, analytical and innovative thinking, and acquisition of competency-focused logistics education.
This paper has the potential to contribute to evaluating the importance of main and new criteria
when selecting personnel to third party logistics companies and considering the “knowledge- skillattitude-
competency” perspective of human resource management in logistics industry. In addition, the
study findings might give new qualitative and quantitative research questions to academicians about
selection and recruitment process of the logistics companies.
