Abstract: As globalization increases and labor markets become substantially more diverse, increasing diversity during personnel selection has become a dominant theme in personnel selection in human resource management.However, while trying to pursue this goal, researchers and practitioners find themselves confronted with the diversity-validity dilemma, as some of the most valid selection instruments display considerable ethnic subgroup differences in test performance.The goal of the current paper is twofold.First, we update and review the literature on the diversityvalidity dilemma and discuss several strategies that aim to increase diversity without jeopardizing criterion-related validity.Second, we provide researchers and practitioners with evidence-based guidelines for dealing with the dilemma.Additionally, we identify several new avenues for future research.
