Main Article Content
Abstract
This research aims to characterize deceptive behaviors commonly exhibited by job applicants, including both recent graduates and experienced professionals, during the selection interview process. The study involved 258 participants selected based on the following criteria: (1) employment at companies in Gurgaon City, (2) inclusion of both fresh graduates and experienced individuals, and (3) willingness to participate in the research. The participants were chosen randomly and administered Levashina's Likert scale to assess faking behavior.
The raw data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, frequency distribution tables, and crosstabs to present an overview of faking tendencies among both groups of subjects. The findings revealed that 162 respondents (62%) predominantly employed Image Protection (IP) as their faking mechanism, followed by 55 individuals (21%) using Extensive Image Protection. Integration was observed in 20 interviewees (8%), slightly different from the total employing Slight Image Creation (SIC), which amounted to 21 subjects (8%). Additionally, both fresh graduates and experienced interviewees exhibited the highest percentage of each faking type, ranging from 1-3 occurrences.
