Employment Tests, Simulations, and Assessment Centers

As the Staffing Director of a large organization, you are required to create a staffing plan to recruit and select the best candidates. You are facing a two-fold challenge: (1) identifying candidate sourcing areas (i.e., LinkedIn, advertisements, other social media) and (2) determining appropriate assessment tests to use to measure candidate growth and performance potential. Choose your current job, a job you’ve had previously, or a job that you are familiar with. Then, in your presentation, discuss the following points.

  1. Creative      and innovative strategies that can be employed, which are specific to your      organization and industry, to recruit and select candidates.
  2. Select      a position that your organization might need to fill. Explain what      screening techniques (2-3) can be used for that specific position.
  3. Justify      the benefits and drawbacks of the selected screening techniques, as well      as legal considerations that organizations must consider before utilizing      certain screening techniques/assessments.

Requirements:

  • Develop      a 12-slide presentation, not including the title and reference pages,      which are required.
  • You      must include a minimum of two paragraphs of notes, within the speaker’s      note section, to enhance your slide and prevent clutter, realizing this is      a slide presentation for leadership.
  • Your      presentation must be properly cited and formatted according to the APA      Format.
  • Include      a formal references page. This is an individual paper; however, you should      reflect on our discussion forums and incorporate ideas from there, as      appropriate.
  • You      must support your analysis with at least 3-4 scholarly references and can      include resources from this course.
  • You      cannot use Wikipedia. For this assignment, a credible source is defined      as:
    • A       scholarly or peer-reviewed journal article.
    • A       government-based website or publication.
    • A       trade or industry journal article, publication, or website, including       those from trade organizations such as SHRM.org and TD.org.

Health Network employees

/in /by

After having reviewed and being impressed by your business impact analysis (BIA), senior management at Health Network has decided that your team must also develop a BCP. Management has allocated all funds for a BCP and your team has their full support, as well as permission to contact any of them directly for participation or inclusion in your BCP plan. You have been assigned to develop this new plan.

Winter storms on the East Coast have affected the ability of Health Network employees to reach the Arlington offices in a safe and timely manner. However, no BCP plan currently exists to address corporate operations. The Arlington office is the primary location for business units, such as Finance, Legal, and Customer Support. Some of the corporate systems, such as the payroll and accounting applications, are located only in the corporate offices. Each corporate location is able to access the other two, and remote virtual private network (VPN) exist between each Production data center and the corporate locations.

The corporate systems are not currently being backed up and should be addressed in the new plan. The BCP should also include some details regarding how the BCP will be tested.

You may refer to the following additional resources to help you and your team develop a BCP, and you may use a BCP template if found during your research.
