Staffing in the 21st Century: New Challenges and Strategic Opportunities

Robert E. Ployhart

Management Department, Moore School of Business, University of South Carolina, Columbia, SC 29208, ployhart{at}moore.sc.edu

Modern organizations struggle with staffing challenges stemming from increased knowledge work, labor shortages, competition for applicants, and workforce diversity. Yet, despite such critical needs for effective staffing practice, staffing research continues to be neglected or misunderstood by many organizational decision makers. Solving these challenges requires staffing scholars to expand their focus from individual-level recruitment and selection research to multilevel research demonstrating the business unit/organizational-level impact of staffing. Toward this end, this review provides a selective and critical analysis of staffing best practices covering literature from roughly 2000 to the present. Several research-practice gaps are also identified.

Key Words: staffing • personnel selection • recruitment
