Job Satisfaction has been the focus of study for several researchers. This paper aims to compare the job satisfaction of managers based on the selection method used to hire them in the organization. Further, an attempt has been made to compare the job satisfaction of managers based on their marital status, work experience an years of education. The sample used for the study includes managerial level employees working in private sector with 6 months to 2 years of work experience, in order to minimize practice effects. Brayfield and Rothe’s Index of Overall Job Satisfaction (1951) has been used to measure the job satisfaction of the managers. The results of the investigation have been discussed.
