Abstract

This study aims to examine and analyze the influence of job advertisement information completeness and the quality of the selection process on the initial performance of new employees in the retail sector in Bandar Lampung. Specifically, the research seeks to identify the extent to which comprehensive job advertisements affect early employee performance and to assess how the quality of the selection process contributes to that performance. A quantitative approach was employed to investigate the impact of information completeness in job advertisements and the quality of the selection process. Data were collected and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling with Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS). The findings reveal that both the completeness of job advertisement information and the quality of the selection process have a positive and significant effect on the early performance of employees. Detailed and clear job postings help candidates better understand their roles and responsibilities, while a well-structured selection process allows organizations to recruit individuals who are best suited for the position. These results underscore the importance of informative recruitment practices and rigorous selection procedures in enhancing new employee performance. Limitations: This research is limited to the retail sector in Bandar Lampung, which may restrict the generalizability of the findings. The cross-sectional design prevents the analysis of long-term impacts, and performance assessments were based on subjective measures. Moreover, other potentially influential variables were not included in the current model. This study contributes to the development of human resource management theory, particularly in the areas of recruitment and employee selection. It enriches the understanding of how the completeness of job information in vacancy advertisements and the quality of the selection process can significantly influence the initial performance of new hires. This research highlights the often-overlooked combined effect of job advertisement clarity and selection process quality on early-stage employee performance in the retail industry, offering practical insights for improving recruitment strategies.
