Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1A Hybrid Data-Driven and Fuzzy MCDM Approach for Employee Selection(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2025) Sadeghzadeh, K.; Bahreini, P.; Kao, Y.-L.; Yilmaz, I.; Erdebilli, B.; Aghsami, A.; Bahrini, A.Employee selection, a cornerstone of human resource management, critically shapes organizational performance and long-term effectiveness. While traditional approaches primarily rely on expert-based evaluations, this study proposes a novel hybrid framework that integrates Multi-Criteria Decision-Making methods with data mining techniques to reduce the dimensionality of the number of criteria or variables considered. By integrating backward regression with fuzzy Multi-Criteria Decision-Making methods, our framework reduces model complexity and captures criteria interdependencies, while fuzzy logic addresses ambiguity in expert judgment, a gap often overlooked in prior research. The methodology first uses backward regression modeling with the employee attrition rate as the response variable to identify core criteria. Subsequently, the fuzzy Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory analyzes interrelationships between criteria, followed by the fuzzy Analytic Network Process for weighting criteria and ranking candidates. We validate our approach using real-world recruitment data - including expert interview scores and historical attrition - from a company specializing in electronic attendance systems. The AI-generated rankings are benchmarked against these expert-based evaluations to assess alignment with human judgment. Initially, 17 criteria were systematically reduced to 11 core factors, resulting in a streamlined yet robust evaluation system. Our findings emphasize that 'Time-of-service,' 'Requested-wage,' 'Teamwork,' and 'Leadership' are the most critical criteria influencing effective IT personnel selection. © 2025 IEEE.
