  1. •How practical is it to measure the various types of fit for selection purposes?
    •Does procedural justice have an influence on applicants’ perception of P-O & P-J fit?

  2. How common is it for organizations to assess organizational fit during the selection stage? This seems to me to be very specific and may not actually help predict successful candidate, rather just an applicant who won’t quit?

  3. Why would organizations be more concerned with P-O fit than P-J fit? In terms of selection, wouldn’t it seem to be more important to have P-J fit first, and P-O fit second?

  4. Do you think it is easier to find someone an applicant who has P-J fit or P-O fit? Which is more beneficial for organizations in the long run?

  5. Does the finding that P-O fit and P-J fit are convergent indicate the importance of giving applicants information about both the job and the organization during the selection process?

  6. Psychologically, what do you think is so meaningful about PJ fit over PO fit? Do you think this is a proximity issue?

  7. Shay, I do think the results support the idea of giving candidates information about the job and the work group and the organizational goals, values to help candidates self-select.
