Intuitionistic Fuzzy Number Based Group Decision Making Approach For Personnel Selection

Öz

The most appropriate personnel selection is a very important issue for an organization’s success due to the increasing competition in global market. Traditionally, Saaty’s consistency method is used to check the consistency of the experts’ judgments in personnel selection problem and the inconsistency judgments can be sent to return to the experts for reevaluation, which is time consuming and sometimes undesired by experts, or can be extracted from decision making process. A perfect multiplicative consistent intuitionistic preference relation (IPR) will be repaired the inconsistent IPRs of the experts into a consistent one automatically. There is no paper about personnel selection using integrated intuitionistic fuzzy analytic hierarchy process method (IFAHP)-IFVIKOR (intuitionistic fuzzy VlseKriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Resenje) approach under group decision making with perfect multiplicative consistent IPR. This paper presents an integrated multi-criteria decision making method for personnel selection with perfect multiplicative consistent IPR under intuitionistic fuzzy environment. Priority value of criteria has been defined by utilizing IFAHP method and the most appropriate personnel among candidates has been found by utilizing intuitionistic fuzzy VIKOR. The application of personnel selection is conducted to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in a logistic firm. The personel selection is realized according to a questionnaire responded by three experts in human resources management area. Five criteria for personel selection are defined through literature review and the judgments of expert team. K1 (self-confidence) is defined as the most important criteria for personnel selection of the specified logistic firm by using IFAHP. Alt₃ is defined as the most suitable personnel for the specified logistic firm by using IFVIKOR.

Küresel pazarda artan rekabetten dolayı en uygun personel seçimi bir organizasyonun başarısında çok önemli bir konudur. Saaty’nin tutarlılık metodu uzman görüşlerinin tutarlılığını kontrol etmek için kullanılır. Tutarsız görüşler yeniden değerlendirme için uzmanlara geri gönderilir. Bu çalışmada mükemmel çarpımsal tutarlı sezgisel tercih ilişkisi, tutarsız uzman görüşlerini otomatik olarak tutarlı hale getirmek için kullanılır. Sezgisel bulanık analitik hiyerarşi prosesi (SBAHP) ve SBVIKOR (sezgisel bulanık VlseKriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Resenje) yaklaşımı personel seçimi probleminde daha önce kullanılmamıştır. Bu makale sezgisel bulanık ortamda mükemmel çarpımsal tutarlı sezgisel tercih ilişkili personel seçimi için bütünleşik çok kriterli karar verme yaklaşımını sunmaktadır. Kriterlerin öncelik dereceleri SBAHP metodu kullanılarak belirlenmiş ve adaylar arasından en uygun personel SBVIKOR metodu kullanılarak belirlenmiştir. Personel seçimi uygulaması bir lojistik firmasında önerilen metodun etkinliğini göstermek için gerçekleştirilmiştir. İnsan kaynakları alanında uzman üç kişi tarafından bir anket yardımıyla personel seçimi yapılmıştır. Personel seçimi için uzman görüşleri ve literatürden yararlanılarak beş kriter belirlenmiştir. SBAHP yaklaşımı sonucunda K1 (kendine güven) kriteri lojistik firması için personel seçiminde en önemli kriter olarak belirlenmiştir. SBVIKOR yaklaşımı sonucunda lojistik firması için en uygun adayın alternatif 3 olduğu belirlenmiştir.
