Job Description Analysis
Prepare a response, of approximately 1000 words total, to the following:
- Select one job in your organization—and note whether it is non-exempt (hourly paid) or exempt (salaried). If you are currently not employed, locate an employer who will allow you to review two job descriptions.
- Using a source for job descriptions such as O*NET (Links to an external site.) , Employee Job Descriptions (Links to an external site.) , or another source of your choice, compare the description that you have with one from the source that closely resembles your description.
- Based on your new-found description, how might you improve on your description?
- Assume that the organization has decided to move to competency descriptions. Write your description keeping in mind how to use competency-based job analysis.
- Explain which approach, traditional or the more recent competency approach, you prefer and why.
- Attach each original job description in Appendix A and Appendix B.
