Abstract:
A correct forecast of the necessary personnel is required to be permanently
correlated with the foreseeable changes of the environment - the conditions of the market, of the
economy, of the competition, of the technology and of the finances. Due to the instability of the
current economic environment, railway companies are determined to organize in a new way, looking
for management methods through which they can control a context of crisis, which disturb existing
theories. An important feature of all modern approaches is the idea that all human resources must
be mobilized to achieve organizational goals. The importance and topicality of this topic are given
by rethinking the strategic role of human resources at the level of organizations, people being
considered the main competitive advantage they have. These developments increase the
importance of recruitment and selection as a determining factor in ensuring the need for human
resources.
