摘要：Two consultants were hired to design and implement an employee selection system for a sugar processing plant. They conducted job analysis, collected performance appraisal data (criteria), worked to establish the validity of the test battery, and performed other activities related to completing a professional test validation study. The case ends with the plant manager enthusiastically announcing to the consultants and departmental managers that testing would begin at the packing plant in ten days, that other company facilities would soon follow suit, and that the corporate office was very impressed with the near term implementation of testing at all of its processing plants. The consultants informed the plant manager that his plan was premature and a lot more analysis was required before testing could begin at the current location and that extending the testing to the other plants was beyond the scope of the current validation study. The manager told the consultants “we need to make this happen” and later asked “can you make this happen?”
