Assignment 3 Recruiting and Staffing
Objective of the assignment: The objective of this assignment is to allow you to demonstrate
your knowledge of the steps required to recruit and staff for an important segment of the
workplace and to demonstrate your strategic skills to the CEO. You will share some of the
essential strategic and administrative steps for this important function of Human Resources and
will include metrics for which to evaluate the recruitment and selection approach that will be
implemented.
The situation: Suppose that you are the new HR Director at HSS (the case study presented in
our Course Resources under modules) and you have already made a presentation to the CEO
and
the Board of Directors on the need for HR planning and enhanced strategic role that HR must
play in the organization. The CEO confides that she has been thinking about how the senior staff
in the organization are recruited and selected. As a result, she has asked you to propose new
recruitment and selection methods for the senior level employees.
Deliverable:
The CEO's directive to you is to prepare a short (approximately five-page double spaced)
proposal that includes at the least:
1. A cover memo to the CEO of HSS (CEO has no formal name just CEO) providing an
overview of the task assigned and a summary of your proposal
2. A description of at least three recruitment approaches that could be considered
3. A description of at least three selection approaches that could be considered
4. A cost/benefit analysis and comparison of the approaches of both the recruitment and
selection approached
5. Metrics the organization could use to evaluate the effectiveness of the on-going recruitment
and selection of senior level employees. Propose at least three metrics for the evaluation
(include
the time frame for your evaluation period such as six months after entry into the position).
6. Your recommended approach and your arguments/justification to defend your choices.
7. A conclusion section that includes a summary of the approaches recommended, the benefits
and any other aspects to the proposal you want to highlight.
Notes: Use topic headings to organize your presentation, include in-text citations for statements
of fact, and provide a reference page if in text citations are used in the proposal, use professional
level language and writing.
