Social desirability influence predictive validity of this factors.Research limitations/implications – Although the results of this research identified that some Big Fivefactors are associated with certain professional criteria, but subjectivity assumption suppose to be taken intoaccount. This means that directors of the organizations who do the recruitment may need outside help to avoidsubjectivity. It is also valid for the evaluation of work performance. Situation leads to understanding that furtherresearch could analyze links between Big Five factors and objective work performance evaluation criteria moredetailed.As the work was limited competency model expressed in labor efficiency, other studies would be useful toexplore how this test can predict other professional criteria: career and entrepreneurship, etc. It is helpful tocarry out a study with more subjects and more representative sample. Whereas research presents workperformance efficiently expressed only by competency model further research could investigate how the test canpredict other professional criteria. For instance career and entrepreneurship, etc. It could also be useful to carryout a study with wider sample.Practical implications – The research results can be applied in the recruitment process. Researchpresents analyses of the relationship between work performance and its indicators which may be valuable forrecruitment officer in order to predict retail, services work performance. In particularly it may be valuable forrecruiting managers. Results of this work can provide the information about how much personalitymeasurements are useful in providing managers work more efficiently. Moreover the results of this research canbe also used for the evaluation of Big Five questionnaire validityOriginality/Value – One of the critical organization‘s success factors – personnel recruitment.Nowadays personal workers' qualifications and requirement for every particular vacancy increasing simultaneously. Consequently, so competent and well-suited employee recruitment is becoming increasingly difficult. Accordingly we need more and more reliable screening methods and tools to predict the behavior of employees further assess whether the candidate will be an effective worker in the future. For this reason, studies that demonstrate the different methods of reliability and validity are crucial in addition to such a lack of research in our country. This research paper seeks to be an input to it.
