[Last Name] 1 [Your Name] [Instructor Name] [Course Number] [Date] Job Analysis- My Experience Job analysis has a significant influence on the quality of human resources- it is the foundation of Human Resources Management. My experience in HRM has made me realize that job analysis is an important tool for ensuring that the right candidates are selected. It determines job requirements in terms of quantities, skills, and other human characteristics. As a quantitative aspect of manpower planning, it goes beyond recruitment, selection, and placement, to include training and development, job evaluation, performance appraisal, job design, safety and health, promotion, employment guidance, and labor relations. Recruitment, selection, and, placement involve evaluating and matching job requirements and the qualities of the person who will do the job. Data obtained from this process can be used by organizations for workforce planning, career and succession planning, compensation administration, and risk management. I have also learned that interviews will remain the most resourceful job analysis method for many years to come.
