The selection of the most qualified staff for the performance of responsible duties in the field of emergency management is an extremely sensitive task. By excluding some external factors and focusing exclusively on the professional domain, the application of certain mathematical tools significantly facilitates the work of decision makers. One of the most commonly used tools for solving multi-criteria decision-making problems in the analytical decision-making approach is Analytical Hierarchy Process. Through the paper, the theoretical basis of this method is explained in more detail through the basic steps and the mathematical basis is described for easier understanding emphasizing advantages and disadvantages of the method. The application of the method is practically presented on the example of the selection of the best candidate for a management position in the emergency management sector.
