This study investigates how the ingratiation and perceived similarity of a job applicant can affect the judgment of an interviewer in determining person-organization fit (P-O fit), hiring recommendations, and the job offer during a job interview. Data was collected from 144 interviewers and 184 applicants from 28 companies in Taiwan. The results suggest that applicant ingratiation has a positive effect on an interviewer’s perceived similarity with the applicant, and that this perceived similarity mediates the relationship between applicant ingratiation and the interviewer’s judgment of the applicant’s P-O fit. The results further suggest that the relationship between the interviewer’s judgment of the applicant’s P-O fit and the job offer is mediated by hiring recommendations. Implications and directions for future research are discussed.
