A Call for Cross-Fertilization between Personality and Personnel Selection Researchers.

Lievens made a case for using SJTs in personnel selection, a recommendation with which we agree.

Despite our enthusiasm, we point out several problems, most notably absence of time dimension in SJTs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
