Abstract

Recruitment of applicant is based on the personality perceptions. In this analysis we have examined the personality perceptions in resumes of engineering students within the completion of engineering course. This study focussed on the relation of impression management theory’s principle of self-presentations strategy with resumes. Specific personality perceptions of resumes were assessed to judge the hire-ability level of engineering students. In the process of assessment, this study focuses on three significant areas of resume such as educational qualifications, personal information and resume format. These three areas were strongly associated with the recruiter’s perceptions for fresh engineering position. This study was conducted at the entry level of engineering positions in the campus recruitments. We have selected and scrutinised 145 numbers of resumes in the current research work.
