Only 30 per cent of organizations linked competen-

cies to reward. The ways in which these competencies 

are used are described below.

Recruitment and selection

Competencies are used in many organizations as a 

basis  for  person  specifications  set  out  under  com-

petency headings developed through role analysis. 

The competencies defined for a role are used as the 

framework for recruitment and selection, and com-

petency-based interviews are structured around the 

competencies listed in the specification.
