Personnel Assessment & Recruiting Strategy

Description:

The objective of this assignment is to walk you through the process of preparing to recruit and recruiting a new employee. Your best source of detailed information on the aspects of each of the components of this process is your book.  If you are unsure how to create or replicate certain steps in the following process, return to the definition, concept and exhibits in the assigned texts.  Additionally, your own workplace may have examples of some of these steps readily available.  If you cannot ask a manager or co-worker for written information on job recruiting, ask a friend, or, of course, utilize the internet for additional support. It may be helpful to “role-play” through this exercise, imagining yourself as a manager who needs staff, and must determine what kind of qualifications you want your staff to have, and then where and how to communicate this characteristics to potential candidates.  The assignment will require several components be completed – there is no specified format or length, with the exception the requirement to type your work into a Word document at a college level of writing.
