Intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFSs) can effectively represent and simulate the uncertainty and diversity of judgment information offered by decision-makers (DMs). In comparison to fuzzy sets (FSs), IFSs are highly beneficial for expressing vagueness and uncertainty more accurately. As a result, in this research work, we offer an approach for solving group decision-making problems (GDMPs) with fuzzy parameterized intuitionistic multi fuzzy N-soft set (briefly, FPIMFNSS) of dimension q by introducing its induced fuzzy parameterized hesitant N-soft set (FPHNSS) as an extension of the multi-fuzzy N-soft set (MFNSS) based group decision-making method (GDMM). In this study, we use the proposed GDMM to solve a real-life GDMP involving candidate eligibility for a single vacant position advertised by an IT firm and compare the ranking performances of the proposed GDMM with the Fatimah-Alcantud method.
