Human resources in a company must have competencies and skills that match the company’s needs. The employee recruitment process is the first gateway that must be carried out comprehensively to obtain reliable human resources. However, the company’s recruitment process is still at risk of bias and takes a long time. This study was conducted to identify a strategy for recruiting new employees who are competent according to the qualifications required by the company. This study was developed by applying a preference ordering technique based on similarity to the ideal solution (TOPSIS) . The data criteria used in the study were based on a selection process commonly used in one of the state-owned companies in Indonesia, which included the results of a general intelligence test (TIU), a national insight test (TWK), a field ability test (TKB), and an interview test. The weighting used was TIU 30%, TWK 10% TWK, 20% TKB, and 40% for the interview test. The study results showed that the TOPSIS method can help companies find employees with the competencies that best match the qualifications needed. TOPSIS can also increase the efficiency of the recruitment process time by up to 70%. TOPSIS can help companies find the best 20 candidates in just 7 days, whereas, in the recruitment process, without TOPSIS, the company needs 21 to 30 days. Using TOPSIS, companies can streamline the recruitment process, reduce bias, and reduce maintenance costs.  \nKeywords Human resources; Employee recruitment strategies; Decision making processes; TOPSIS  \nINTRODUCTION  \nEvery company, whether large, medium, or small, requires a set of tools to organize and manage all its business processes. Human resources play an important role in ensuring that all business processes in a company run efficiently. Aslam et al. (2014) stated that human resources are a manifestation of the company's roots, which, in practice, can regulate all activities within a company. Patterson (2023) also strengthened this opinion by stating that every human resource ina company has its own duties and responsibilities, which are integrated with one another to realize the company’s goals.  \nArmstrong and Taylor (2014) argued that human resources in a company must have competencies and skills that suit the company’s needs. Markham et al. (2022) also stated that the capabilities and competencies of the company's human resources must be constantly developed. Human resources are one of the main parts a company must have to conduct its business processes and gain profits. Therefore, the employee recruitment process, as an element of human resources in a company, should be conducted comprehensively by considering the applicant’s abilities and experience. This is done so that the company's employees have the quality of work needed to achieve its goals and obtain optimal profits effectively and efficiently.  \nThe selection of employees for a company is considered the first step in ensuring the  \ncompany’s success (Fayad & Easa, 2020). Employees who are actively involved in the company can provide an impression of experience for all parties related to the company, such as producers, consumers, partners, and co-workers (Alam et al., 2024) . Goyal et al. (2023) considered employees the s","cbCaibymVM77ahQx","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibymVM77ahQx","pdf",894034,1,14,"English","en",105,"# Abstract\n# Introduction\n## Human resources and recruitment needs\n## Competency alignment and selection success\n## Bias risks and technology-driven optimization\n## Decision-making approaches for recruitment\n# Method, criteria, and weighting\n# Results and impact of TOPSIS\n# Conclusion","[{\"question\":\"What problem does the study address in employee recruitment?\",\"answer\":\"The study addresses the risk of bias and the time-consuming nature of the recruitment process, which can hinder the selection of competent employees.\"},{\"question\":\"Which decision method is applied to support recruitment decisions?\",\"answer\":\"The study applies the TOPSIS method (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) to rank candidates based on preference ordering relative to the ideal solution.\"},{\"question\":\"What criteria and weights are used in the TOPSIS assessment?\",\"answer\":\"The criteria include TIU (30%), TWK (10%), TKB (20%), and an interview test (40%).
