INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
The most significant developments in the area of organizations in recently is the increasing attention given to human resource. People are very important to organizational efficiency as they offer services, values and also contribute to progress of the organizational life; and when these humans are controlled judiciously, these human qualities can be of impact and benefits to the organization. As revealed in Djabatey (2012) this scenario lends credence to the increasing attention being paid to the people aspect of organizational wealth. This is so because the process of developing these humans, their ability, and the entire development process of the total organization are the fulcrum of human resource management (Mullins, 1999; Djabatey, 2012). Akin to this development is the contention in National University of Ireland (2006) that the continued growth of the enterprise depends on its ability to recruit and select high quality personnel at all levels.
