Integrating Behavioral Assessments In Recruitment Strategies: Enhancing The Competency Of Residential Security Guards In Delhi-NCR

Abstract

This research paper examines the integration of behavioral assessments in recruitment strategies to enhance the competency of residential security guards in the Delhi-NCR region. The study aims to investigate the efficacy of behavioral assessments in predicting job performance, compare traditional recruitment methods with behavioral assessment-based approaches, identify key behavioral traits predictive of success, assess the impact on recruitment efficiency and effectiveness, and provide recommendations for integrating these assessments into security guard recruitment strategies. Utilizing a sample of 147 security guards employed in residential societies, data were collected through a questionnaire survey and analyzed using SPSS. The key findings indicate significant correlations between behavioral assessment scores and job performance metrics, suggesting that traits like emotional intelligence, stress tolerance, and ethical judgment are predictive of success in security roles. The study also found that behavioral assessments improve recruitment efficiency and effectiveness, reduce employee turnover, and enhance job satisfaction. These results underscore the importance of incorporating behavioral assessments into recruitment processes to ensure a competent and reliable security workforce, ultimately enhancing community safety in the Delhi-NCR region.
