Research on Assessment Centers in Serbia

This work represents a condensed version of extensive research conducted as a part of the master’s thesis work of the lead author. To the best of our knowledge, there is a general lack of research on the subject of assessment centers (ACs) not only in the Republic of Serbia but also in Southeastern and Eastern Europe. Research is being conducted in accordance with established models and procedures in works that have already been published. We explore where the local AC practice stands compared to the developed economies as well as the developing ones. We also investigate whether there is a specific pattern of “Serbian Assessment Centers” so that we can identify and document the potentially idiosyncratic features of the local AC practice.
