Writing a Job Description
Conduct a job analysis in order to:
- develop a detailed description of the tasks involved in the job
- determine the relationship of the job to other jobs in the organization
- identify the knowledge and skills necessary to perform the tasks
- ascertain the desired competencies or behaviors required for successful performance in the job
A job analysis can be done using one or more of these popular methods:
- observation - watch the employee in the job and note down what has to be done and how it has to be done
- interview - interview the job incumbent or incumbents and combine the data into one job analysis
- questionnaire - workers complete a structured questionnaire to identify the job tasks
- expert input - utilize subject matter experts to gain an understanding of the job. These may include managers, supervisors and consultants.
The job description is a key document for guiding the employee selection and interview process. Without a proper job description it is difficult to determine what you are looking for in a candidate, to describe the job to potential candidates and to evaluate the suitability of job candidates.
