  1. Each worker's personality and fit
  2. An employee's individual performance
  3. The job's duties and requirements
Show the answer

Answer: The job's duties and requirements

Job analysis describes the work itself, what is done and what it takes, independent of whoever currently holds the role.

2. A document states that a role requires fluent Portuguese and advanced spreadsheet skills. What is this document?

  1. A job evaluation
  2. A job specification
  3. A job description
Show the answer

Answer: A job specification

A job specification lists the human requirements (knowledge, skills, abilities, experience), while a job description lists the duties and conditions of the work.

3. Which item belongs in a job description rather than a job specification?

  1. Requires a degree in accounting
  2. Must have three years of experience
  3. Reports to the regional sales manager
Show the answer

Answer: Reports to the regional sales manager

Reporting lines, duties and working conditions describe the job, so they go in the description; degrees and experience describe the person needed, so they go in the specification.
