摘要:The literature treated the employee workplace competence term as a dependent variable when it was treated as one of human resource management outcomes. Particularly, few studies have measured the competencies variable as one of the recruitment and selection outcome. And a few researchers judge worker’s competency regarding to recruitment and selection, particularly under the hard and soft taxonomy. However, this study will advance the Alsabbah & Ibrahim (2013) work which proposed the competence model to contact recruitment and selection outcome. Accordingly, the study will illustrate how the workplace soft and hard competence were considered by previous studies, as well, the proposed conceptual framework will validate the reasons to consider these workplace competence in evaluating the recruitment and selection outcome. Keywords Recruitment, Selection, Hard Competence, Soft Competence
