Islamic psychology in the recruitment and selection process: A case study of a ceramic distribution company at Pekanbaru, Indonesia

This study aims to analyze a recruitment and selection system grounded in Islamic values within a family-owned company operating in the ceramic distribution sector. The research employs a qualitative approach using a case study method. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, direct observations, and document analysis involving the company’s leader and warehouse supervisors. The findings reveal that the recruitment and selection process in the organization emphasizes candidates’ moral and spiritual integrity in addition to their technical competencies. Key indicators considered during the selection process include work intention, honesty, responsibility, and the alignment of personal values with the organizational culture. The company also faces challenges in identifying candidates who possess a balanced combination of professional capabilities and strong spiritual values. Nevertheless, the implementation of this value-based recruitment system contributes positively to the development of a harmonious work culture, enhances organizational commitment, and reduces turnover intentions. This study highlights that integrating Islamic values into human resource management practices can serve as a relevant strategy for fostering organizations oriented toward ethical conduct, sustainability, and long-term organizational well-being
