LU Conducting a Job Analysis for The Acquisitions Intern Role Essay

A JOB THAT I HAVE HELD OR MANAGED IS AN INTERN IN A REAL ESTATE COMPANY IN ACQUISITIONS DEPARTMENT. Select a job that you have held or managed, or that you would like to in the future. Explain in detail how you would conduct a job analysis of this position. Remember, you won’t be able to actually complete a job analysis, because it’s a time-consuming and very detailed process… Instead, your task here is to create a roadmap or guide for how you would complete a job analysis if you had sufficient time, resources, and access to do so. 

Create a professional written guide explaining how a manager or HR professional would complete this task. Frame your work as a professional document, not a school assignment (other than in-text citations and a References list, where applicable). This guide should be of a level of quality that you could actually give it to a manager in the workplace to demonstrate your knowledge and capabilities in Talent Management.

The exact format of your paper is up to you, but the guide should have separate sections addressing each of these topics in detail:

• What information is needed in order to complete a job analysis for the position that you have chosen to work with?
• What sources of information would you seek out? (These are sources such as current or previous workers in this job, current or previous supervisors of this job, existing procedure documents, etc.)
• What techniques or methods would you use to collect data?
• How do federal employment laws apply when creating your job description?

Remember to keep your focus on the job analysis process, not on the details of your position. You should not be trying to guess at what an actual job analysis would tell you, but rather explaining to your reader how to conduct a job analysis.
