A Self-Assessment Model for Measuring the Fitness Level of Industrial Engineering Graduates Competence to a Quality Control Job Position

Abstract

Competence mismatch is a mismatch between the company's job specification and employee competences. Competence mismatch has to be reduced in order to increase employee's satisfaction and motivation to improve company performance which leads to great benefits for both the company and their employees. A measurement tool is required in order to reduce the potential for competence mismatches at an early stage. This paper proposes a self-assessment model to measure the fitness level of Ubaya Industrial Engineering alumni competences. The criteria were collected form job vacancies from 8 companies and categorized as subjective and objective criteria. Criteria reduction was performed using pareto principle and yield 4 objective criteria and 4 subjective criteria. The criteria weights were determined based on the evaluation from 3 experts who provided their scores in preference ordering dan utility values. The experts' evaluation scores need to be unified by transforming to Fuzzy Preference Relations and then aggregated to get the criteria weights. The criteria and their weights will be used in this self-assessment model for measuring the fitness level of candidates in terms of the fitness percentage for the Quality Control job.
