虽然求职者的动机,以处理在招聘过程中遇到的信息部分影响招聘成功,很少有人知道是什么动机更彻底的信息处理。为了解决这个问题,我们整合了招聘和社会信息处理理论,以研究招聘网站上的多样性线索影响网站观众的处理所呈现的信息的可能性。利用一个控制实验和一个假设的组织,研究1显示,黑人和白人花更多的时间观看招聘网站,更好地回忆网站信息时,网站包括种族多样性的线索。这些关系更强的黑人,和组织吸引力的看法介导这些影响黑人,但不是白人。研究2发现,在考虑到感知的组织属性和网站设计效果后,黑人和白色参与者观看真实的组织招聘网站的关系相似。这些研究结果对招聘组织的影响进行了讨论。
Although job seekers' motivation to process the information encountered during recruitment partially influences recruitment success, little is known about what motivates more thorough information processing. To address this issue, we integrated recruitment and social information processing theories to examine the possibility that diversity cues on recruitment websites influence website viewers' processing of presented information. Utilizing a controlled experiment and a hypothetical organization, Study 1 revealed that both Blacks and Whites spent more time viewing recruitment websites and better recalled website information when the sites included racial diversity cues. These relationships were stronger for Blacks, and organizational attractiveness perceptions mediated these effects for Blacks but not for Whites. Study 2 found similar relationships for Black and White participants viewing real organizational recruitment websites after taking into account perceived organizational attributes and website design effects. Implications of these findings for recruiting organizations are discussed.
