Captions available

The idea

Job analysis systematically identifies the tasks a job requires and the characteristics needed to perform them.

In practice

Observation and interviews produce a documented list of required tasks and competencies before any hiring begins.

Where people slip

Selection criteria not traceable to a job analysis are difficult to defend legally and empirically.
