The diagram illustrates the sequential stages involved in the hiring process at Acme Corporation. Overall, the process is linear and involves several selection points that determine a candidate’s progression from initial application to potential permanent employment.
The process commences when a candidate submits an application. This is followed by attending an initial qualifying interview. At this stage, a critical evaluation is made: if candidates meet the basic qualifications, they advance; otherwise, they are immediately not employed.
Successful candidates then proceed to take an aptitude test. The outcome of this test is another crucial determinant. Those who pass are offered a position on six-month probation, while those who fail are exited from the process and not employed.
The final stage of the process is the six-month evaluation. Following this probationary period, candidates are either recommended or not recommended. A recommendation leads to a permanent position offer, concluding the process successfully. Conversely, if a candidate is not recommended, they are not employed, bringing their journey with the corporation to an end.
