Job Analysis, Talent Management, and Descriptions
1. Chapter 4: Job AnalysisAND Talent management
What is talent management and why it’s important?
Talent management is the strategic deployment of HR resources to help reach business goals,
specifically by hiring, developing and retaining the best employees in the market for a specific
industry.
Talent management is an integral part of a healthy organization on many levels. Competition is
fierce in today’s corporate world, with many HR professionals agreeing that there’s an ongoing
“war for talent” —many open positions with not enough high-quality candidates to fill them.
Talent management also works to keep current employees and advance them to higher
positions in the organization. This saves money that could otherwise be lost to high employee
turnover. “It makes much more sense to develop and retain key talent than source, hire and
train new ones.
What is Job analysis and the importance of job analysis?
Job analysis is the procedure for determining the duties and skill requirements of a job and the
kind of person who should be hired for it.
Job Analysis plays an important role in recruitment and selection, job evaluation, job designing,
deciding compensation and benefits packages, performance appraisal, analyzing training and
development needs, assessing the worth of a job and increasing personnel as well as
organizational productivity. Job analysis is an essential prerequisite for the effective
management of the human resources of an organization. It is the process of gathering relevant
information about a job. It actually specifies the tasks involved in a job and the factors that
influence the performance of that job. Job analysis can be used to plan a workforce, strategize
future needs of the company and help fill key roles that can lead the company to success. It can
also assist human resources in identifying experience levels in new and current employees
enabling necessary training.
How to collect job analysis information/method of collecting job analysis information:
1) Questioner: Structured or unstructured questionnaires may be used to obtain job analysis
information. Questionnaires can be a quick, efficient way of gathering information from a large
number of employees. But, developing and testing a questionnaire can be expensive and time
consuming.
2) Personal interview: personal interview of the job holder is an important method for
collecting information about the job analysis. For this purpose the job analyst can use a
questionnaire. Here the job analyst tries to draw out a description of the job as the respondent
sees it.
3) Observation method: under this method the job analyst observes the individual while
performing the job and takes notes to describe the tasks and duties performed. If the job is
simple one then the observation is the only technique for data collection.
Explain how you would write a job description, and what sources you would use.
A job description is a written statement of what the worker actually does, how he or she does
it, and what the job’s working conditions are. . For example, for parents who want the best care
2. Chapter 4: Job AnalysisAND Talent management
for their kids, writing up a job description before hiring a child-care worker could be quite
useful. For instance, because what children learn when they’re very young predicts their future
academic and career success, facilitating early-childhood learning is a crucial task for many care
givers.
There is no standard format for writing a job description. However, most descriptions contain
sections that cover:
1. Job identification
2. Job summary
3. Responsibilities and duties
4. Authority of incumbent
5. Standards of performance
6. Working conditions
7. Job specification
Explain how to write Job specification:
Job Specification. Also known as employee specifications, a job specification is a written
statement of educational qualifications, specific qualities, level of experience, physical,
emotional, technical and communication skills required to perform a job, responsibilities
involved in a job and other unusual sensory demands.
The clearer, organized and thorough your job specification is, the better job candidates will
understand what you’re looking for in an employee. Follow these steps when creating job
specifications:
1. List the job qualifications
A job specification should include the minimum qualifications employees need to meet. This
could include education, experience, required skills and more. Consider breaking out your job
qualifications into a list of must-haves vs. nice-to-haves to attract a wider range of candidates.
2. Add any special demands
Include any extraordinary conditions that come with the job. For example, if the employee will
be required to stand for a long period of time, work in dangerous conditions or extreme
temperatures, lift heavy machinery or experience other special demands, include those in the
job spec.
3. Proofread and organize your job spec
Before finalizing your job specification, proofread it by checking for spelling, grammar and tone.
Read through the job specification and organize it so it makes the most sense for applicants.
4. Update your job specification when needed
Job requirements may change over time. That’s why it’s important to keep your job
specifications updated. This will ensure the applicants are meeting the new qualifications rather
than the old ones.

job analysis The procedure for determining the duties and skill requirements of a job and the
kind of person who should be hired for it.
What is job descriptions?
A list of a job’s duties, responsibilities, reporting relationships, working conditions, and
supervisory responsibilities—one product of a job analysis.
What is job specifications?
A list of a job’s “human requirements,” that is, the requisite education, skills, personality, and
so on—another product of a job analysis
Job enlargement: Assigning workers additional same-level activities.
Job rotation: Systematically moving workers from one job to another.
Job enrichment: Redesigning jobs in a way that increases the opportunities for the worker to
experience feelings of responsibility, achievement, growth, and recognition.
Job summary: The job summary should summarize the essence of the job, and should include
only its major functions or activities.
Explain how job analysis provides information useful in recruitment and selection,
compensation, and performance appraisal.
Answer: Job analysis provides information for recruitment and selection by laying out what the
job entails and what human characteristics are required to perform these activities. This
information helps management decide what sort of people to recruit and hire. Job analysis
information is also crucial for estimating the value of each job and its appropriate
compensation. A performance appraisal compares each employee’s actual performance with
his or her performance standards. Managers use job analysis to determine the job’s specific
activities and performance standards.
List the steps in conducting a job analysis.
Answer: There are six steps in doing a job analysis.
Step 1 is to decide how one will use the information.
Step 2 is to review relevant background information such as organization charts, process charts,
and job descriptions.
Step 3 is to select representative positions.
Step 4 is to analyze the job by collecting data on job activities, required employee behaviors,
working conditions, and human traits and abilities needed to perform the job.
Step 5 is to verify the job analysis information with the worker performing the job and with his
or her immediate supervisor. Step 6 is to develop a job description and job specification.
Explain how a job analysis typically involves a joint effort by an HR specialist, the worker, and
the worker’s supervisor.
Answer: The HR specialist might observe and analyze the job and then develop a job description
and specification. The supervisor and worker may fill out questionnaires listing the
subordinate’s activities. The supervisor and worker may then review and verify the job analyst’s
conclusions regarding the job’s activities and duties.
4. Chapter 4: Job AnalysisAND Talent management
What are the advantages and disadvantages of using interviews to collect job analysis
data?
Answer: Interviews are relatively simple and quick way to collect data. Skilled interviewers can
gather information that might otherwise go undiscovered. Some activities might occur only
occasionally or be more informal in nature. Interviews can discover these types of activities.
The interview also offers an opportunity to explain the need for a job analysis. The biggest
drawback is the chance for information to be distorted either to outright falsification or honest
misunderstanding.
Explain the advantage of using a position analysis questionnaire to analyze a job.
Answer: The advantage of the PAQ is that it provides a quantitative score or profile of any job in
terms of how that job rates on five basic activities: 1) having decision-making/ communication/
social responsibilities, 2) performing skilled activities, 3) being physically active, 4) operating
vehicles/ equipment, and 5) processing information. Its real strength is in classifying jobs. Jobs
can then be compared quantitatively.
When is a job function essential?
Answer: A job function is essential when it is the reason the position exists or when the
function is so specialized that the firm hired the person doing the job for his or her expertise or
ability to perform that particular function. Essential job functions are the job duties that
employees must be able to perform.
What job-related behaviors are considered generic and important to all jobs?
Answer: Regardless of the job, the following work behaviors are important to all jobs:
industriousness, thoroughness, schedule flexibility, attendance, off-task behavior (reverse),
unruliness (reverse), theft (reverse), and drug misuse (reverse).
What are the five steps for establishing job specifications based on statistical analysis?
Answer: Step 1: Analyze the job and decide how to measure job performance.
Step 2: Select personal traits like finger dexterity that you believe should predict successful
performance.
Step 3: Test candidates for these traits.
Step 4: Measure these candidates’ subsequent job performance.
Step 5: Statistically analyze the relationship between the human trait and job performance.
Explain the difference between job enlargement and job enrichment.
Answer: Job enlargement means assigning workers additional same-level activities to increase
the number of activities they perform. Job enrichment means redesigning jobs in a way that
increases the opportunities for the worker to experience feelings of responsibility,
achievement, growth, and recognition
