Employment Management in the Public Schools: A Proposed Recruitment, Selection, and Placement System
Fernando Enad | Asuncion P. Pabalan
Discipline: Education
Abstract:
The study aimed to comprehensively overview the experiences encountered by public school
employees during the recruitment, selection, and placement (RSP) process within the DepEd Bohol
Division. Employing a qualitative-descriptive research design, the researchers utilized a
phenomenological approach to delve deeply into these experiences, shedding light on the nuances
and intricacies of the division's RSP process. As Lambert et al. (2013) described, qualitativedescriptive studies aim to provide a comprehensive and detailed summary of specific events
experienced by individuals or groups in everyday terms. To achieve this, Colaizzi's (1978) data
analysis method was applied, meticulously gathering, transcribing, and analyzing recorded
participant responses. The rigorous analysis revealed that an overwhelming 81% of the participants
recognized significant challenges within the current RSP system of the division, underscoring the
pressing need for a renewed approach to address these identified challenges. This highlighted the
necessity for an RSP policy that is responsive and innovative, tailored to meet the evolving needs and
expectations of applicants, schools, and the division. By implementing improvements to the RSP
process, a more efficient and timely filling of vacated and newly available positions is anticipated,
contributing to the seamless functioning of the educational system and ultimately enhancing the
prospects of success
