Textbook: Strategic Staffing
Background Information
A job description is a written description of the duties and responsibilities of a job. A person
specification summarizes the characteristics of someone able to perform the job well. Based on
the job description, the person specification profiles the personal skills, qualifications, abilities,
and experiences the organization needs to evaluate candidates during the recruitment and
selection process (Phillips & Gully, 2015, p.110)

b. Describe how you would conduct a job analysis or create a competency model
differently for two types of jobs—systems engineers and a more static, lowerskilled job such as a cashier or mail sorter.

b. Was the interpretation your classmate provided reasonable and consistent with
experts in the field? Did your classmate defend the choices effectively?
