The samples of this study are tutors who are currently working at My L’s Course Agency in Surabaya Indonesia.  This study employed variance based Structural Equation Model (SEM) using Partial Least Square software to examine these relationships. In addition, the bootstrap technique with 5000 samples is used to estimate t-value and p-value to avoid type II error problem in testing hypothesis due to small sample size problem.

The research result shows that impact of recruitment and selection on tutor’s performance are statistically significant at 1%. This empirical evidence confirms the hypothesis that recruitment and selection process has an impact on job performance. This finding implies that human resource manager should aware the recruitment and selection process to improve the job performance in the recruiting process.
