It involves: • Examining the training document for the job • Observing the job being done • Talking to the people doing it • Do you wish to combine or reallocate duties?

  4. 1: Determined job descriptions • The job description specifies the duties, tasks and activities the job holder is expected to perform • Consider what is to be done and at what standard you wish • A job description generally lists the internal and external relationships, responsibilities and accountabilities and any other information that is relevant to the job

  5. 1: Determined job descriptions • Hire for attitude and train for skill • It may not be the most qualified person that gets the job • It may not be the person with the most experience • People can be taught skills but generally you may not teach a positive attitude

  6. 1: Determined job descriptions • Consider any Legal, Legislation, EEO or Occupational Health and Safety standards and practices that you must adhere to in the selection process • Follow your work place practices to ensure you obtain appropriate approvals to advertise the role and liaise with HR during the process.

  7. 2: Plan for selection • The HR department will ask you to do a job analysis, update the job description and prepare the person specification and will then present you with a short list of candidates • Advertising the role may be undertaken in newspapers and other print media such as journals, on the company internet and notice boards, on online job portals and on other organisation’s website. • Many use recruitment agencies to filter candidates

  8. 2: Plan for selection • Sourcing information about your short list of candidates is more common practice than ever before. • The list of sources include; • Information from the candidates initial letter or email and work history • Application forms • Selection tests • Employment interviews • Reference checks

  9. 2: Plan for selection • What you can and can not ask: • General information to collect • Contact details • Education qualifications • Employment History • Evidence of the applicants legal entitlement to work in Australia • Family name and given names • Position applied for • Referee’s names and addresses

  10. 2: Plan for selection • Other information that may be relevant for certain jobs: • ASK FOR THIS INFORMATION ONLY WHERE IT IS JOB RELATED:Age: has the minimum age been reached or is the applicant below any maximum age that may apply to employment law? • Criminal record/traffic convictions and accidents. People convicted of larceny may not be suitable for jobs that would place them in a position of trust (e.g.; job dealing with money or giving them access to people’s homes)

  11. 2: Plan for selection • Languages, questions about which languages the applicant speaks, reads or writes might be relevant in such jobs as police officer or airline attendant • Physical ability, where disability would preclude the applicant form performing the duties of the job, or be hazardous to the safety of the applicant or colleagues, clients or public.

  15. 3. Assess and select applicants • Employment interviews can be structured or unstructured • People that are untrained in a structured interviews will ask a series of more meandering questions aimed at finding non specific information • Structured interviews have a significantly higher chance of making a successful selection decision and are more positively viewed by candidates • Behavioural interviews are the most reliable type of structured interview

  16. 3. Assess and select applicants • Behavioural interviewing: • Ask each candidate the same series of questions to help you compare ‘apples’ with ‘apples’ • It helps you assess the candidates objectively on specifics rather than on gut feelings • It helps you select and eliminate candidates for job –related reasons only • Questioning past behaviours helps ensure that the candidate base their answers on fact and it provides reliable insight to their experience, knowledge, values and motivation
