Gatewood and Field (2001), employee selection is the "process of collecting and evaluating information about an individual in order to extend an offer of employment." Many organizations have a selection process and in actuality, it is a good process; but, they fail to fully implement that process for various reasons. I recall a situation with our school district when the board was looking to hire a superintendent. The board hired an agency to assist in the selection process of the superintendent and they selected an array of individuals within the community to serve on the interview panel. The board had an excellent process in place to select the superintendent but for some reason decided in the middle of process that they knew who they wanted for the position and ended the selection process without interviewing all of the candidates.

    Delpit (2006) and Darder (2012) improved my understanding by expressing these concepts through the lens of a classroom teacher. Delpit (2006) takes the culture of power one step further. The idea that those holding the code of power subconsciously become dismissive of those that potentially will not uphold the code is profound.

After providing them a potential high quality candidate, I learn that they have implicitly excluded the highly-qualified student from an opportunity.

As a new person to the company, organizing the interview process is the best way to get to know people and learn what their strengths and weaknesses are. If I was on a position of a new CEO, I would do exactly the same thing. It would show the other leaders that I do not have personal preferences, and everything is fair and transparent.

    There are public schools all over the world and those in public schools are not getting the proper education that they need. It seems public schools only provide the public with the bare minimum.
