Abstract

Personnel selection and reallocation are human resources policies that should be planned and implemented accurately because of their importance to the future of the company. When a person is hired, he or she represents an investment in human capital. This is the reason because managers have to use different tools in order to make good decisions. In this paper we present some fuzzy tools for personnel selection and reallocation processes and the advantages and disadvantages of their applying. Moreover, we show some examples, including the use of a specific software.
