The meanings attributed to the clinical and organizational competencies of the psychologist and how these determine and mark a differentiating factor in a personnel selection process were analyzed. This research is a qualitative study, with a cross-sectional descriptive design, it seeks to respond to its main objective through semi-structured interviews, in which five Colombian psychologists are questioned about important aspects of personal selection. It was found that the senses attributed to clinical and organizational competencies are decisive in the selection process, since using the two competencies makes a much more complete process, seeing the subject from a global vision where each aspect that makes it up is of utmost importance for the organization, bearing in mind that performing this combination of competencies is a job that only a psychologist can do.

Keywords : personnel selection; psychology; clinical skills; organizational skills.
