The multifocused faculty selection model: a design for hiring the best faculty

The multifocused faculty selection model is designed to assist the faculty search committee in two ways. First, this model organizes the stages for obtaining information about the applicant's abilities related to faculty performance. Second, the model provides a consistent method for faculty selection as the membership of the department's search committee changes. The applicant selection techniques used in this model include descriptive interviewing, computer assisted data, and the teaching demonstration.
