Explain two or three selection tests you would use in the selection process for the following positions: (a) school bus driver (b) air traffic...

School Bus
Driver

You can use an integrity test to find out if the
candidate is disciplined enough to drive a bus full of school children. You don't want a driver
that drinks on the job or has a tendency of being late for work.

The other
test that you can give this candidate is a personality test. You need to know the kind of person
that you're going to work with. You need someone that understands children and doesn't easily
get offended by annoying behaviors. The driver should be calm and composed at all times,
especially around the children.

Air Traffic
Controller

The first test should be a cognitive ability test.
You need to measure the overall intelligence of such a candidate because they will be handling
complex machinery every day.

The second test is an assessment center. An air
traffic controller helps maintain order at the airport. They clear the runways for planes to
land and monitor airplane traffic in the skies. Before giving a candidate such a responsibility,
you need to see how they can handle an air traffic situation in real life. An assessment center
offers the perfect environment for such a test.

Cashier at a
Grocery Store

You need to give a cognitive ability test to
someone interested in this position. The test will allow you to measure the overall intelligence
of the cashier. Since accounting can be quite technical, it needs someone with a high
IQ.

This candidate also needs to take an integrity test. You need an honest
person to handle the store's finances.
