Objective of the assignment:

Job analysis is a core skill for HR professionals and a key task for organizations to perform. So many of the employment decisions are based on this one task. The purpose of the activity is for you to gain practice in conducting a job analysis and to gain knowledge about the methods to collect data for the analysis.

Deliverable:

For this assignment, you are asked to develop a plan to gather data for a job analysis, use at least two of the methods to gather data, write a short job description and job specification based on the data you have gathered. Please do not use your own position and do not use a job description already written. If you do not work outside the home, you have other opportunities for positions to analyze. If you do not have a position in a typical office, retail establishment or production facility you can use, seek out a position from elsewhere. The opportunities could include a server at a restaurant, a service provider in your home, your hair stylist, a sales assistant, the receptionist at your doctor’s office or perhaps your child’s au pair, tutor, teacher or nanny.

First review the material presented in the course about how to conduct a job analysis, the various methods for collecting data and the pros and cons of the various methods.

After you have selected your methods for collecting the data, select the position (a job) to analyze and use at least two of the methods for collecting data, collect the data using the methods selected and summarize your findings in a short job description and job specification. .

Place the power point presentation in the assignments folder AND in the discussion forum for all to see. In the power point presentation, share the following:

1.  Provide an academic definition of job analysis and a short description of how it is used in organizations. Provide an in text citation for the definition.

2.  The position you selected to analyze.

3. The methods you selected for gathering data, an academic definition of each, an in text citation and the pros and cons of each data collection method you selected.

4. The rationale for why you selected the methods you did (tell why you selected the methods you did).

5.  A description of your experience in collecting the data (how did it go? – was is easy, hard, stressful? for example).

6.  A short sample position description and job specification you were able to design based on the data you gathered. Include an academic definition of position description and specification along with the in text citation for each.

7.  Suggestions for data gathering if you were to complete this assignment again and desire to make it even more accurate.

Please try to present your data in no more than 10 slides including your title slide and reference page (recall that if you have in text citations you must also have a reference page and it is to be in APA format including displayed in alphabetical order). Keep all the relevant content in the slide content area and use the notes area on the slide for other supplemental information

Current Challenges and Problems in the Field of MarketingIn 2010, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention projected that by 2050, one in three Americans would have diabetes (HealthDay, 2010). On the one hand, for organizations such as food producers and restaurants specializing in high sugar, fat, or calorie foods, this health crisis is a problem that threatens the survival of the organizations. On the other hand, some organizations have perceived such problems as challenges they have turned into opportunities: For example, food producers may work to remove trans-fats and other “bad” ingredients from their product line. A company may also make more high-protein snacks and fewer high carb ones, for example. Or, other companies may be assessing the potential success of a new line of home exercise equipment, yoga studios, workout facilities, exercise software, calorie counters, step counters, juice bar franchises, etc.Marketers must pay attention to marketing implications that differ across cultures and geographic boundaries as well as trends over time. How consumers react to a new product or service may determine a company’s success or failure.For this week’s Application, you will examine a current marketing challenge faced by a business or industry.

How would you evaluate if your strategies to reduce turnover were “successful”?  

Your response to this question should include applicable quantitative and qualitative metrics used for evaluation purposes.

Sorry I posted the wrong attachment earlier. This is the correct one.

APA Format like this with URL;

APA

The most common problem is typically with directly quoted material.  When you quote directly (under 40 words), you need to include quotation marks around the passage(s) used, along with the author’s last name, date of publication and page number (or “n.p.” for “no page”).  If the passage is over 40 words it is indented vs. quotation marks, the other citation information is the same.  When you paraphrase material or have used it as a general reference, this means it is in your words.  The correct method of citation is just the author’s last name an date of publication.

Examples:

Direct Quote:  “The ADA provides that qualified individuals with disabilities may not be discriminated against” (Bernardin, 2013, p.86)

Paraphrased: The Americans with Disability Act was passed in 1990, which essentially extends the concept of equal employment to those that have disabilities (Bernardin, 2013).

This may seem like a small difference, however in academia, it is extremely important to not only give credit where credit is due, but also to clearly distinguish your words from someone else’s.

Finally,. the “rule of thumb” in terms of resources is that approximately 80% of  any given assignment, paper, case study, etc should be authored by you with resources (paraphrased or directly quoted) accounting for the remaining 20%.  Resources should not be used in lieu of your own words, thoughts and ideas, they should instead be used to support your thoughts and ideas.  Any assignment with little or no authored content of your own, will not receive credit.

This professor is very particular.

I had assigned this to a tutor and the date I needed it was yesterday but she doesn’t have it done and she won’t answer me. So I am having to reasign it and I need it done by 9pm tonight. Sorry for the short time. But the tudor I had screwed me. I am already at 50 points off this assignment.
