“To hire or not to hire” To answer this question depends on the applicants' aptitude, or the quality as a member of a Japanese family-like business corporation. In the employee selection, psychological tests help for the understanding of the applicants' personalities. Psychological tests are not expected to be the tools for estimation of the aptitude for a specific job, such as clerical work, sales engineering, etc. Rather, they are used for better understanding of the applicants'total quality as a business person or an engineer. As a selection tool, psychological tests should be well constructed so as to make applicants feel that they are fairly treated. Psychological tests have been considered as more fair and efficient than other methods like oral examination or interview. And thus, they have taken a dominant role in the employee selection in Japanese business industry.
