A fuzzy AHP approach to personnel selection problem

Due to the increasing competition of globalization and fast technological improvements, world markets demand companies to have quality and professional human resources. This can only be achieved by employing potentially adequate personnel. In this paper, we proposed a personnel selection system based on Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP). The FAHP is applied to evaluate the best adequate personnel dealing with the rating of both qualitative and quantitative criteria. The result obtained by FAHP is compared with results produced by Yager's weighted goals method. In addition to above-mentioned methods, a practical computer-based decision support system is introduced to provide more information and help manager make better decisions under fuzzy circumstances.
