at AVSI foundation- Uganda, To evaluate the effect e-job interviews on employee
performance at AVSI foundation- Uganda .The study was guided by Social Network
Theory (SNT) by William N, 1983 and the Systems Theory (ST) by Drover G, 1977.
Literature was organized according to the above specific objectives. The study adopted a
cross sectional research design together with qualitative and quantitative approaches. Data
was collected using a self-administered questionnaire and an interview guide. The study
considered a population of 94 from which a sample of seventy-three (73) was selected.
Sixty- seven (67) questionnaires were fully filled and returned hence 91.8% response rate.
The study findings revealed that e-job advertisement had a strong and significant
relationship with employee performance (p = 0.000, r = 0.792**), and was the best predictor
of employee performance with β =0.692. This is followed by E-job interviews with a
positive strong relationship with employee performance (p=0.000, r=0.693**) and a positive
significant effect with β = 0.532 and lastly E-job selection which had a positive moderate
relationship with employee performance (p=0.000, r=0.589**) and positive effect with β =
0.396. From the regression analysis, E-Job advertising was found to be the best predictor
of employee performance, followed by E- job interviews and E-job selection was found to
be the least predictor of employee performance. The researcher has concluded that all the
dimensions of E-Recruitment that were considered under this study positively and
significantly influenced employee performance at AVSI Foundation-Uganda. From the
study, the researcher recommends that AVSI Foundation should continue to embrace e-job
advertising by concentrating on the most commonly known and used job boards.. On E
selection that AVSI Foundation-Uganda develops a data bank with comprehensive profile
of the ideal candidate, including significant skills, proficiency, and character needed for
cultural fit. Once the information is detailed, shape the e-recruitment system to search for
this data. Keep a pool of capable employees who may be recruited as a rehire. These
employees have confirmed skill sets and are known to be a good fit culturally. And finally
on e-job interviews, audio visual systems should be employed to ensure access to
applicants’ expressions and also avoid impersonation. | en_US |
