A person with good skills may not have the qualities of motivation and loyalty and so companies always have to choose from people who have a mix of all the required skills and characteristics. Diversity is an important element for an organization and so, an organization should choose people from different races and gender to maintain a balance.

Recruitment steps in Civil Service Staffing
