Abstract
This paper tackles the difficulty of accurately modeling uncertainty in complicated DM settings, where conventional FS models frequently fail. The IVFS theory, a broadening FS theory, is a potent tool that can offer the potential to approach uncertain data in vague environment in order to get over these restrictions. This paper presents an application of IVFS in a DM challenges, where on CV and WCV of an IVFS are used to select a qualified applicant for the HR manager position. Additionally, sensitivity analysis has demonstrated the stability of the final decision.
