The selection decision should focus on both "can-do" (the applicant's knowledge, skills, and abilities) and "will-do" (the applicant's motivation and willingness to perform) factors to ensure that the selected applicant is capable and motivated to perform the job duties effectively. While the strategic objectives of the organization's competition may be important in the long-term, they should not be the primary focus of the selection decision. Similarly, while personality match and motivation are important factors to consider, they should not be the only criteria used to make the selection decision.
