Procesul de selecție, etapă fundamentală în efortul de îmbunătățire a capitalului uman în HUMINT
The selection process, a fundamental stage in the effort to improve the human capital in HUMINT

Summary/Abstract: HUMINT is a niche discipline, with a limited number of stakeholders and practitioners. The management of the HUMINT personnel is a complex enterprise that should properly address aspects of career development projection and planning, starting from the selection process, professional development, performance assessments/evaluation, and ending with welfare aspects that can affect individual and group performances. Developing a well-trained and skilled HUMINT operator means that an applicant will be able to manage long life educational process in many different areas (military, economics, psychology, culture, public affairs, human geography, etc.), with ability to deal with permanent physical and mental stress, while preserving its capacity to fulfil all tasks and missions assigned. This is the basis for further professional progress, to senior/ leadership positions, or possible shifts to other disciplines. In this respect, as the HUMINT community within the Military is limited in number, the individual quality of the personnel matters, and each vacant position has to be occupied precisely by the right skilled applicant. The paper further describes the NATO HUMINT COE approach to the selection process and professional development in HUMINT.
