美国报纸的编辑们总认为他们有出色的判断力,但是很多编辑又同时承认他们很难找到选择雇员的良方,也很难确立对潜在雇员的更加广泛的评估标准。一些人认为查看经历并不能提供一个求职者完整的形象,很多关于未来雇员的信息是虚假的,充其量也是不准确的。编辑们不断争论的焦点是:可否把测试作为可靠的考查依据。编辑们也好象晓得某些同行在搞这种测试,但是他们不相信这套办法,并且搞不清楚:假如他们的报纸想要测试,如何进行才会有益,比如说是测试业务还是其他方面。有关过去10年的研究和文章显示出报纸的一种倾向——这些报纸的发行量绝大多数在10万份以下——报纸正倾向于增强对求职者的测试。 American newspaper editors often think they have great judgment, but many editors also admit that it is hard to find a recipe for choosing an employee and it is hard to establish a broader assessment of potential employees. Some people think that viewing experience does not provide a complete picture of job seekers, and many of the information about prospective employees is false and, at best, inaccurate. The focus of constant debate among editors is whether testing can be used as a sound test. Editors also seem to know that some of their peers are conducting such tests, but they do not believe it and are not sure if their newspaper is going to test how it works - for example, testing a business or something else . Research and articles on the past decade show a tendency for newspapers - the vast majority of these newspapers being under 100,000 - that newspapers are tending to increase their testing of jobseekers.
