Realistic Job Previews:
Of particular interest is the view, supported by research, that providing
realistic information about a job results in applicants’ obtaining clearer and
more realistic information about the job (Breaugh 2010).
Considerable research is available on the effectiveness of the realistic
job preview.
The goal of a realistic job preview is to present practical information
about job requirements, organizational expectations, and the work environment.
The preview should include negative and positive aspects of the job
and the organization, and it may be presented to new hires before they start
work.
The use of realistic job previews is related to higher performance and
lower attrition from the recruitment process, lower initial expectations, lower
voluntary turnover, lower turnover overall, and higher ratings of role clarity
and organizational honesty (Breaugh 2013; Earnest, Allen, and Landis 2011;
Phillips 1998).
A realistic job preview can be presented in a number of ways:
verbally, in writing, or through the media. Certainly the most straightforward
approach is for the prospective or new employee to hold frank discussions
with coworkers and supervisors. In addition, the new employee may observe
the work setting and perhaps shadow an employee who is doing a similar job.
Regardless of the approach used, preventing surprises and providing the
employee with an honest assessment of the job and the work environment are key.
