ANALYSIS OF SELECTION, WORK POSITION PLACEMENT AND RECRUITMENT ON PERFORMANCE MEDIATED BY JOB SATISFACTION (Study At Lamongan Police)

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of recruitment, selection, and job placement on employee performance, with job satisfaction as a mediating variable at the Lamongan Police Department. The results show that job selection has a positive and significant impact on both performance and job satisfaction. Recruitment also has a significant effect on job satisfaction, but not directly on performance. Job placement has a negative and insignificant impact on both performance and job satisfaction. Job satisfaction mediates the relationship between recruitment and selection on employee performance but does not mediate the relationship between job placement and performance. These findings indicate that effective selection and recruitment processes, along with improved job satisfaction, are crucial in supporting employee performance. The managerial implication of these findings emphasizes the importance of open and transparent selection processes, as well as training and rewards to enhance work motivation within the organization.
