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.
