#hr role in performance reviews

[the-joy-of-knowledge]

How to answer tough interview questions.

Subscribing to the Harvard Business Review was one of the best decisions I made. I have learned so much about career development, personal branding, and job crafting. This article summarizes some of the questions you will get asked in a behavioral interview (courtesy of HBR) and I have included my responses to all of them. Assume I am seeking a HR role in a Fortune 500 company

Tell me about yourself and describe your background in brief?

How did you hear about this position?

What type of work environment do you prefer?

How do you deal with pressure or a stressful situation?

Do you prefer working independently or on a team?

How do you keep yourself organized when balancing multiple projects?

What did you do in the last year to improve your knowledge?

Tell me about yourself and describe your background in brief?

I grew up in small country in West Africa. I went to a great school through scholarship with the condition that I would pay it forward to the younger generation. So, after high-school I spent two years teaching math to elementary school kids. It was there I discovered my interest of people development. I enjoyed taking a kid from "I don't like math to can I get more homework? When I moved to the U.S for college I chose to study Psychology with a minor in Organizational Development. And my internship as a Human Capital Manager has allowed me to further develop my communication and leadership skills.

How did you hear about this position?

I learned about this position through Stacy Williams. She was one of the panelists on the fireside chat I convened in my school on the importance of women in leadership positions. I followed up with her through a coffee chat. She really enjoyed her job and the company culture. Her enthusiasm about her work encouraged me to apply and I am really excited to be going through the interview process.

What type of work environment do you prefer?

I thrive in environments where I am constantly learning. A place where each days brings a fresh set of challenges that I can solve. I also like working with teams where we can collaborate on tasks and brainstorm solution-oriented ideas. In my former internship I worked with an incredible team as a project manager in the human resources division and I worked on certain projects where I had full creative control on the outcome. I enjoyed the balance of both.

How do you deal with pressure or a stressful situation?

Stressful situations are inevitable and I learned to navigate them successful throughout my college career and my various internships. The first time I came across a stressful situation was in my Sophomore year. I worked as a customer service representative at a big department store and it was holiday season. You can imagine the amount of pressure - long lines of customers all waiting to get attended too. Instead of succumbing to the pressure I made sure to really understand the pain point of each customer which were long wait times and stock outs. If we were out of one brand of sparkling water, I would quickly recommend a different brand. If lines were long, I would go to the floor to help the bagging process. Customers left feeling satisfied with their shopping experience. Overtime, I have realized that the key to dealing with pressure is willingly choosing to complete the tasks with a positive mindset instead of worrying.

Do you prefer working independently or on a team?

I like a mix of both. I enjoy working on a team. The process of strategizing with my teammates on the best way to approach a problem allows for critical analysis and diverse points of view. Wh I also build camaraderie and trust with them while we tackle big problems. I enjoy working alone as well because I get to see how I approach different problems and compare my current performance to my previous ones. Working alone also gives me an opportunity to get feedback from my managers on my progress or areas of improvement. I like a balance of both.

How do you keep yourself organized when balancing multiple projects?

I am used to working on multiple projects. A typical semester for me is juggling between my classes, weekend job, extracurricular activities, and passion projects. So to stay on top of my deadlines and due dates I like to prioritize my tasks based on their level of urgency and importance. I use the time blocking method to schedule time for my projects. I take advantage of tools like Google calendar to keep track of due dates and appointments and Notion to manage big projects.

What did you do in the last year to improve your knowledge?

Last summer, I took some time off to really learn about veganism. It seemed intimidating at first because I did not know enough. So I turned to research to understand the facts. I began making home-cooked meals by following recipes from people I trusted and liked on YouTube. As I began noticing changes in my gut health and productivity levels, I started a blog to share my experiences. Now my blog has over 500 enthusiastic vegans who are on the same journey as I am. it was one of the best investment I made in myself.

The Big Pivot

[musette22]

Just dropping by this morning to say that i am so f*cking proud of Seb right now. Like....i'm always proud, but the this year hr's been really knocking it outta the park. The buzz around him this year is just *chefs kiss* And the whispers of a possible Oscar nod? Icing on the cake. He's worked so hard for so long, and he nails every role he takes, and he's finally getting the really big, serious recognition that he so rightly deserves. I feel like one of those obnoxiously loud and proud parents at a school awards ceremony - "THAT'S MY BOY!! THAT'S👏MY👏BOY👏!!!!" He's come so far since i first saw him as the nervous lil' nugget on the red carpet at the CATFA premiere, i'm beyond happy for our chaotic sunshine puppy 💜💜💜💜

And you just know that all the amazing reviews about his performances this year have been setting off his praise kink like crazy. Our lil' Subastian is getting his crops watered and his skin cleared this year!

(I just had to come and gush in you inbox cos i know you'll get it).

My love!!! 💫 Oh, I get it, I get it SO MUCH ❤️❤️I'm so proud of him I could burst, I swear 🥹 You said it all really, he's come such a long way and he's worked so hard, staying true to himself and not talking the easy route, and I couldn't be prouder if I tried 🙏🏻 I can only imagine what great things are still to come for our boy 🥹 Can't WAIT to find out!!! Just as I can't wait to see him blush and giggle his way through all that well-deserved praise along the way 👀🥰

I LOVE that you've been here from the start and you're still as supportive of him as ever ❤️❤️ You're the real deal, and I'm sure he'd be so happy to know he's got a fan like you 😘

This is us at all times and I think that's very cute of us:

[nohoperadio]

The date for my annual performance review at work has been set for one month from today. The review day itself is not a big source of stress, it's the management's opinion that I'm good at my job, it's a mildly awkward thing to go through but it's very unlikely to "go badly" on the day.

However!

I gotta fill out the paperwork first, which consists of seven pages, each page representing one of the abstract work virtues ("teamwork", "initiative", "customer service" etc), and for each of these I have to write 3+ concrete examples of things I did over the past year that exemplify that virtue, followed by a description of how each thing I did impacted the business, followed by explaining what lesson I took from each thing.

This is a chore that combines several things I hate hate hate and am bad bad bad at:

homework (the paperwork doesn't have to be done at home, you can schedule work time to do it and this is considered fine, but this doesn't work for me at all for reasons we'll get to in a bit), I'm not even good at structuring my free time when the only things I'm trying to fit into my schedule are nice things I enjoy doing, let alone this

bullshitting, the whole thing is premised on an abstract dreamt-up-by-HR model of how people's jobs work that bears so little relation to reality that it's basically impossible to complete the form without a lot of bullshitting. You have to take utterly mundane and routine moments from your job that don't mean anything and write them up in a way that emphasizes how brilliant and special and passionate you are; also because they ask for an absurdly large amount of examples, you find you spend a lot of time and mental effort figuring out how to reword stuff you've already written elsewhere in such a way that it's not too obvious you're repeating yourself. I am extremely averse to bullshitting to an extent that I fully acknowledge is irrational and unhealthy but I don't seem to be able to do much about it: at uni I would occasionally miss deadlines because I couldn't figure out what my actual opinions were about the thing the essay was about, and I couldn't bring myself to just write an essay endorsing a conclusion I wasn't sure about. I hope that doesn't come across as even slightly a boast, there is no virtue there, it's an extremely fucking stupid attitude to have, I knew that at the time but I couldn't seem to change it. And I'm still kind of like that unfortunately, I can write bullshit but it feels horrendous and takes a ton of will power and progress will be comically slow.

expressing positive sentiments about myself, this one's self-explanatory I think

The result of these points is that I find writing these things so emotionally draining that it often takes like literal hours of psyching myself up/calming myself down just to find the right state of mind where I can even get started, and then often that leads to like, two or three bullet points worth of progress and then I'm exhausted. If this sounds dumb to you, well, yeah. That's why I can't realistically do it during work time, what am I gonna do request a whole day's worth of time and then produce like 30 words by the end of it? I'm not doing that. On top of these setbacks resulting from my unfortunate personality, there's also the fact that my particular role is quite different from most people's in the company but I still have to fill out the same standard form as everyone else, e.g. I rarely deal directly with customers so I have to really reach to argue that stuff I'm doing counts as "customer service", there's a lot of that kind of thing.

I'm not sure if I'm really conveying what I find horrible about this very well, but basically it's: 1] a lot of work, which 2] relies on skills I am extremely weak on and 3] aggravates my weird neuroses in various ways, and all the while 4] the whole thing is manifestly pointless and dumb. That's a recipe for aaaaaaaaaaaaa. If this year goes like the previous two years, I'll spend the weeks leading up to it feeling guilty and panicky for a significant portion of every day and doing that thing where I procrastinate the productive task constantly while not being able to really enjoy the things I'm using as procrastination either; I'll make ludicrously small amounts of progress on a handful of good days, but ultimately somehow force my way through most of it all in one go just before the deadline.

Maybe it won't be like that this time. My general being-a-person competence has been improving year on year for the past several, maybe this is the year I only moderately suck at this type of task. I shall let that sentiment have the last word here, not because it's especially plausible but because it feels virtuous to do so.

(I feel like it would be unjust to write this post and fail to say: I like my job. A lot! It's nothing very glamorous, I work in a bookshop and get paid marginally more than minimum wage, but: I find the work satisfying, I virtually never have the "ugh I can't wait till I can go home" feeling, and there's a small number of people there who I like very much and who like me in return. All three of those are things I literally could not conceive of being true of any job before I started here; when I said above that my being-a-person competence has improved the past few years, my job is a huge part of that. I have more positive feelings towards my work than a lot of people ever get to experience and I feel lucky for that. But this one particular aspect of it which comes once a year always kind of ruins my life for the better part of a month and I really wish it didn't exist.)

Life update

Long story short(er)...a bit over a year ago my then-boss decided to bring a process that had been previously delegated to an external vendor internal, and I would be in charge of it. We knew that it would be a big challenge, but felt that it was possible. I didn't get a title change, but in effect this was a MASSIVE promotion, which I later convinced my subsequent boss to give me a significant raise for.

Then, my boss left the organization just as this new process was ramping up, and was replaced by someone who was honestly out of his depth in the position, for lack of any better option at the time. I repeatedly asked for assistance with decision-making, resources, and professional development regarding this process, but received very little assistance. Nevertheless, my newly-hired supervisee and I limped along the best we could with the knowledge and resources that we had. We were getting projects out the door, but we didn't have what we needed to assess how well we were doing and how to do it better.

A few months ago, my boss was working with some consultants on some tangentially-related things, and they were shocked to find out the extent of what I, as just one person, was in charge of. They suggested bringing someone else on board, and in fact, they knew just the person, who was currently looking for a new job. She became my boss about 2 months ago. She has extensive experience in this area and it's become clear just how in over our heads we were when we decided to bring the process in house with exactly 0 people with prior experience working on it. I kept asking both my previous boss and her what exactly my responsibilities vs. hers were, and never got a satisfactory answer. My previous boss kept telling me that I "could learn a lot from her" (completely true, but nevertheless I still needed to know what my job was so that I could learn from her while doing it) and then later that I should "be proactive" and not just wait around for someone to tell me what my job was (which, I'm pretty sure that repeatedly trying to have a conversation about it is, in fact, proactive? but ok). My current boss kept saying that she didn't know either, but it would get sorted out.

Well, it did. Sort of. Last week, she began to hint, and this week she said clearly (when I brought it up), that she does not believe my role as it currently exists is what she needs at this time. She is of the opinion that 90% of writing can be done with AI nowadays, with just a little human cleanup (I wish her luck getting AI to hone in on the very specific voices of certain picky higher-ups in the organization, which I have mastered, but ok), and what she really needs is someone with 6-7 years of experience with this work to run with strategy, project management, etc.

I, uh, clearly do not have that experience, through no fault of my own. So I have been given the following options:

a) Fully commit to the new position and go through 3-6 months of extremely intensive training to try to get me up to speed. I feel like this would be setting myself up for failure, as no matter how hard I work I cannot make up for years with mere months. It would also take a level of commitment to the position that I simply don't find myself having at this point. For various reasons, I'm just not interested in working for her at this point, and I can't see myself being motivated enough to follow through the way I would need to in order to have any chance at succeeding.

b) Try to find another position internally. This would be my preferred option, as I like where I work and what we do, but it requires someone having an opening that is in some way a good fit for me. A colleague has been putting out feelers for me, but I spoke to someone in HR yesterday and he didn't really have anything for me. This is IMMENSELY frustrating given that I was literally given an award for how valuable I am to the organization just months ago, I have always gotten positive performance reviews, and yet somehow it seems there is no way to use the very talents I was told were absolutely essential extremely recently. I feel like there should be someone I can go to and be like, "Hey, remember that big award you gave me for contributing so much? I would like to continue contributing so much. It is in the organization's best interest to not just let me slip away. Let's figure out where I can contribute." But I don't know who to talk to.

c) Leave and find a job externally. I have people who are happily willing to assist with networking and reference-giving on this, but the problem is that everyone's first question is, "What are you looking for?" and I don't have a good answer. I would probably like to stay in the nonprofit world, ideally the Jewish nonprofit world, but could see myself in a for-profit position if I felt like the work was making a positive difference in the world. It would be nice (and to my employer's benefit) if the position involved writing, given it's both my passion and my strength, but it's not a must. My main thing is that I want to feel like my employer is making a positive impact in the world and I want to feel like I myself am making a clear contribution to that positive impact. I didn't do well as an office manager because I felt too disconnected from the mission, but I did fine as an administrative assistant who was working with programmatic staff at the same organization (though such a position is now too low-level). I also don't want to take a salary cut (or at least not a major one), but many positions I'm seeing at my current salary or above are things I'm not qualified for.

So anyway, that's what's been going on and why things have been a bit quiet on this blog. I am oddly calm about it all, there's just been a lot to figure out. That can partially be explained by the fact that my husband starts working part time in less than 2 weeks, and then full time IY"H after he passes the boards in late July, so seemingly the worst case scenario here is we have a brief period of living off unemployment, his part time work, and savings before we get back to where we've been for a while now (his starting salary is a bit more than my current salary, so while we had been expecting our income would double soon, we at least wouldn't be worse off than we've been). But even so, I'm surprised that I'm not more upset.

Creating a Truly Inclusive Workplace in 2025

In 2025, building a truly inclusive workplace is not just a goal but a necessity for companies that want to thrive in the ever-evolving business environment. As organizations adapt to changing employee expectations and global shifts, inclusivity is becoming a core value that drives innovation, engagement, and success. Recent HR trends for 2025 show a strong focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), reflecting the growing awareness of creating an environment where everyone feels valued and empowered.

In this blog, we’ll explore recent HR trends in 2025 that are transforming how companies approach inclusivity, the strategies they are implementing to foster diverse and inclusive environments, and how HR software is playing a crucial role in this process.

1. Shifting DEI from Policy to Practice

In 2024, we saw a heightened focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) as a fundamental aspect of workplace culture. Many companies introduced DEI policies and hired diversity officers to ensure their organizations were reflecting societal values. However, in 2025, the emphasis is on shifting DEI from policy to practice. It’s no longer enough to have policies in place—organizations must ensure that these principles are fully integrated into everyday business operations.

Creating a truly inclusive workplace means going beyond compliance. Organizations are focusing on inclusivity in recruitment, onboarding, career development, and leadership representation. Companies are taking a data-driven approach, using HR software to track key metrics such as the representation of underrepresented groups, pay equity, and promotion rates. By turning these insights into action, businesses can ensure that inclusivity is not just a buzzword but a lived experience for all employees.

2. The Role of HR Software in Advancing Inclusivity

HR software is playing a critical role in advancing inclusivity in the workplace. Recent HR trends for 2025 highlight the increasing use of technology to create equitable systems that eliminate bias in various HR processes.

For example, AI-powered HR software can help companies create more inclusive recruitment processes by reducing human bias in candidate selection. These platforms can anonymize resumes, ensuring that hiring decisions are based solely on skills and qualifications rather than unconscious biases related to gender, race, or ethnicity. Additionally, HR software can automatically screen candidates for diversity goals, helping companies create balanced teams from the outset.

Performance management is another area where HR software is making a difference. With continuous performance tracking tools, businesses can evaluate employees based on real-time data, helping to eliminate biases that can occur in annual reviews. Moreover, feedback loops and employee sentiment analysis help HR teams identify issues related to inclusivity and address them proactively.

3. Recent HR Trends in 2025

As the workplace continues to evolve, hybrid work models have become a permanent fixture in the landscape of work, following trends seen in 2024. However, inclusivity within hybrid and remote work environments presents unique challenges. In 2025, HR leaders are focused on ensuring that all employees—whether they work remotely, in-office, or a combination of both—feel equally included in company culture and have access to the same opportunities for growth and development.

One way organizations are achieving this is through the strategic use of HR software designed for hybrid work management. These platforms facilitate seamless collaboration and communication between remote and in-office teams, ensuring that all employees stay connected and engaged. By providing virtual spaces for team collaboration and feedback, HR software ensures that employees who may not be physically present in the office are not overlooked when it comes to promotions, professional development, or participation in key projects.

Another major trend is the use of virtual DEI initiatives, such as online inclusion training programs and virtual mentorships, to ensure all employees, regardless of location, can actively participate in diversity and inclusion efforts.

4. Personalization and Belonging: Key Elements of Inclusivity

One of the HR trends in 2024 that is continuing into 2025 is the focus on personalized employee experiences. A truly inclusive workplace must cater to the individual needs of its employees, recognizing that everyone has different preferences, challenges, and goals. Companies are increasingly offering personalized benefits packages, flexible work schedules, and tailored development programs to ensure that all employees feel supported and valued.

HR software plays a vital role in personalizing the employee experience. These platforms can collect data on employee preferences, work habits, and career goals, allowing companies to offer personalized recommendations for development opportunities, wellness programs, and work-life balance initiatives. Additionally, AI-driven learning management systems can create individualized learning paths for employees, ensuring that everyone has access to the resources they need to grow and succeed.

Creating a sense of belonging is also key to an inclusive workplace. Employees need to feel that they are part of a community where their contributions are recognized and valued. In 2025, companies are using employee engagement tools within HR software to foster community-building and ensure that employees feel connected to their teams, regardless of their location.

5. Addressing Bias and Ensuring Equity

One of the most challenging aspects of creating an inclusive workplace is addressing unconscious bias and ensuring equity across all HR processes. In 2025, organizations are using HR software to tackle these issues head-on. AI and automation are particularly useful in eliminating bias from critical HR functions, such as recruitment, promotions, and performance evaluations.

For example, AI-driven recruitment tools can help ensure that job descriptions are gender-neutral and inclusive, attracting a diverse pool of candidates. These tools can also analyze data from previous hiring processes to identify patterns of bias and recommend corrective actions. Similarly, pay equity analysis tools within HR software help organizations track compensation trends and ensure that employees are being paid fairly, regardless of their background or demographics.

6. Mental Health and Well-Being as Part of Inclusivity

Recent HR trends in 2025 emphasize the growing importance of mental health and well-being as part of creating an inclusive workplace. Inclusivity goes beyond ensuring diversity in hiring—it also involves creating a supportive environment where all employees feel comfortable bringing their whole selves to work. Companies are expanding their well-being programs to include mental health support, flexible working hours, and access to counseling services.

HR software helps organizations manage these programs by offering wellness tracking tools, mental health resources, and feedback mechanisms to monitor employee well-being. By collecting data on employee stress levels, work-life balance, and overall satisfaction, HR teams can make informed decisions on how to improve their well-being initiatives and create a more inclusive environment for all.

Conclusion

Creating a truly inclusive workplace in 2025 is about more than just hiring a diverse workforce—it’s about ensuring that everyone, regardless of background, feels valued, supported, and empowered to succeed. As the recent HR trends in 2025 highlight, inclusivity is now deeply integrated into the core of business strategy, and HR software is playing a pivotal role in making this transformation possible.

By leveraging HR software to track diversity metrics, eliminate bias, personalize employee experiences, and support well-being, companies can create environments where every employee feels like they belong. In this evolving landscape, organizations that prioritize inclusivity will not only attract top talent but also foster innovation and drive long-term success.

An HRMS system provides a centralized repository for all HR data, making it easy to access and manage. This includes employee records, payroll information, benefits data, and more.

Advanced Analytics

An HRMS system can provide advanced analytics capabilities, allowing HR professionals to analyze data and identify trends. For example, an HRMS can track employee turnover rates, identify the causes of turnover, and develop strategies to improve retention.

Data Security

An HRMS system ensures the security and confidentiality of HR data by implementing robust security measures. This includes data encryption, access controls, and regular security audits.

6. Regulatory Compliance

Compliance with labor laws and regulations is a critical aspect of HR management. An HRMS system can help ensure compliance and reduce the risk of non-compliance.

Automated Compliance Reporting

An HRMS system can automate compliance reporting, ensuring that all necessary reports are generated accurately and on time. This includes reports related to payroll, benefits, and employee records.

Regular Updates

An HRMS system provides regular updates on changes in labor laws and regulations, ensuring that HR professionals are always informed about the latest requirements. This helps to ensure that the company remains compliant with all relevant laws and regulations.

Audit Trails

An HRMS system provides audit trails for all HR activities, making it easy to track and verify compliance-related tasks. This can be especially useful during audits or investigations.

7. Scalability and Flexibility

As businesses grow and evolve, their HR needs change. An HRMS system can provide the scalability and flexibility needed to support this growth.

Scalable Solutions

An HRMS system can scale to accommodate the growing needs of a business. This includes adding new users, expanding functionality, and integrating with other systems.

Customizable Workflows

An HRMS system can provide customizable workflows to meet the unique needs of the business. This includes creating custom workflows for recruitment, onboarding, performance management, and more.

Adaptability

An HRMS system can adapt to changes in the business environment, such as changes in labor laws or shifts in business strategy. This ensures that the HRMS system remains relevant and effective over time.

Conclusion

Implementing an HRMS system can revolutionize your business operations by streamlining processes, improving efficiency, and providing valuable insights. From recruitment and onboarding to payroll and compliance, an HRMS system can transform how your business manages its human resources. By leveraging the power of an HRMS system, businesses can create a more productive, engaged, and compliant workforce, driving long-term success.

Manger in charge of a LOT of shit quit recently because he got a job offer that was

A) 3x his original salary, and

B) involved far less responsibility

I had worked as his subordinate last year, so naturally the head honchos asked me take over what he was doing. Not with the title, but with the “promise” that we can visit that discussion in eight months depending on my performance (yeah okay /s).

Key note: I had received a similar promise for a different manager position. (No followup mention of that promise + no significant training provided to move me towards that position) * 7 months = empty promise. Alright cool.

One month in. Not getting too much guidance (expected), told I’m doing good and need to value myself higher.

Okay. Bet.

Asked for a raise in recognition of increased responsibilities beyond my current job description, quality of work, pay scale of the position (i’m at the bottom), etc. You know, hard facts that cannot be influenced by subjective feelings of importance or relevance.

Oh let’s not forget part of the raise was the annual raise that the HR manager promised ALWAYS happens but I have not received since my annual review four months ago. That I told the HR manager about two months ago but never heard anything back on. So there was a reminder of that, as well.

Told (to my face) that I’m entitled, don’t work hard enough, issued an ultimatum (literally didn’t make any sort of threat but okay), used the owner’s words against him (literally just quoted him on something he told me about pay when I was first hired but okay), they threatened that they could easily go out and find an external hire to take on in the role I’m being “trained” for, and asked if I REALLY think any other place would hire me. Among other “”feedback.””

Okay. Okay okay okay okay. I see how they view me now. Good to know. I learned quite a few things from this conversation and I think some of those things may surprise them.

An organization is like a machine with many moving parts. For it to work efficiently, there must be the right people placed in the right roles.

This requires properly defining and documenting different jobs in the organization through job analysis, job descriptions and job specifications.

These tools form the foundation of key HR functions like recruitment, compensation, performance management and employee development.

In this article, we’ll provide an in-depth overview of what job analysis, descriptions and specifications are, why they matter. We’ll also discuss how to create them accurately for hiring and managing talent effectively.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐉𝐨𝐛 𝐀𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐲𝐬𝐢𝐬?

Job analysis is a systematic process of gathering, documenting and analyzing information about the responsibilities, tasks, skills, abilities, knowledge area, and work context associated with a

particular job. It forms the basis for defining the right requirements for successfully performing that job.

The key objectives of job analysis are to:

● Identify the core duties and responsibilities that a job entails

● Determine the specialized skills, credentials or competencies needed for the job

● Recognize the key performance indicators to measure outcomes for the job

● Understand the environmental/cultural context and physical demands of the job

● Identify machines, tools, equipment, and technologies used in the job

Information for job analysis is gathered in several ways – employee surveys, questionnaires, interviews with job incumbents, observation of workers, and review of policies and procedures.

Specialized jobs may also require analyzing industry standards.

The deliverable from job analysis is documentation that comprehensively describes the job – this is called job description.

𝐄𝐥𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐚 𝐉𝐨𝐛 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧

An effective job description concisely summarizes the key outputs, responsibilities, required skills and qualifications for a particular job. It serves as a guiding document for recruiting, onboarding, training and performance management.

Key elements that a job description includes are:

● Job title and department

● Overall purpose/objective of the job (summary statement)

● The scope of role and position in org structure

● Key duties and responsibilities

● Interactions with other jobs/departments

● Educational qualifications and specialized certification

● Technical/software skills needed

● Soft skills or behavioral competencies required

● Physical or sensory abilities required

A well-written job description is detailed yet easy to grasp for both job seekers and employees. It should describe both day-to-day activities as well as rare responsibilities that the role may

entail. The language used should be clear and use common industry terminology.

Here’s an example snippet from a job description:

Job Title: Sales Manager

Department: Sales

Summary Statement: Responsible for building and leading high-performing sales teams to drive sustainable business growth and achieve revenue targets for the organization’s products/services. Reports to the Head of Sales.

Roles and Responsibilities:

● Develop and implement strategic sales plans to achieve growth targets

● Manage end-to-end sales cycle for major accounts/partnerships

● Coach and mentor junior sales team members to build capabilities

● Work closely with marketing to generate quality sales leads

● Monitor competition landscape and market trends to identify opportunities

Notice how the summary provides an overview while the responsibilities dive into details of core duties.

Job specification is about defining the human requirements – the candidate profile with the skills, traits and experience needed to fulfill those duties.

Job specification details:

● Minimum or required educational qualifications

● Job-related certifications needed

● Hard skills and soft skills required

● Physical attributes like stamina if applicable

● Minimum years and type of experience desired

● Specialized knowledge needed

As part of job specification, you can also indicate “preferred but not required” qualifications to find candidates who may exceed expectations for the role.

The aim is to outline an optimal candidate profile that increases the chances of identifying the right people for long-term success in the job. Paired with the job description, the spec allows for informed hiring decisions based on merit rather than subjective impressions alone.

For example, part of a job spec for a sales manager role could be:

Required Qualification and Experience:

● Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration or relevant field

● Proven experience of 5+ years successfully managing corporate sales teams

● Demonstrated ability to coach and mentor junior sales resources

● Strong track record of achieving revenue targets in past roles

● Subject matter expertise and network in the technology industry

Preferred Qualifications:

● Master’s degree in Business or relevant certification

● Background working with partners/alliances programs

● International sales experience

Here are some key best practices to create accurate and impactful job analysis documentation:

1. Get input from diverse stakeholders: Speak with not just incumbents but their managers and internal customers to get a balanced perspective on the job.

2. Focus on the job, not person: Document only the role itself rather than capabilities of the current person in the job which could be subjective.

3. Use clear, concise language: Write descriptions suited not just for internal HR but also external candidates. Use common industry terminology.

4. Standardize key elements: Use consistent sections and structure across job docs for different roles to enable comparison.

5. Review and update regularly: Revisit docs as business needs evolve to ensure relevance. You can also build review cadence.

6. Collaborate with the compensation team: Align job analysis with pay scale considerations for competitive and fair compensation.

7. Leverage software tools: Use online templates and organizational collaboration tools to easily create, review and update descriptions.

8. Incorporate compliance needs: Ensure job documentation meets all the mandatory and other regulatory requirements.

Getting job analysis right has far-reaching impact across the employee lifecycle:

● Strategic workforce planning: The details help assess workforce capacity and identify skill gaps.

● Candidate screening: Job specs enable assessing if applicants have the required credentials and experience to shortlist.

● Interviewing and selection: Structured, standardized questions can be based on requirements in description.

● Onboarding/training: New hires understand role expectations right from day one. Learning is aligned to needs.

● Performance reviews: Measurable evaluation relies on key outputs and metrics captured in description.

● Succession planning: Required qualifications help identify and develop suitable internal candidates to fill critical roles.

● Compensation management: Job analysis enables pay to be competitive based on “going rate” for matching skill-sets and demands.

Sean Lockwood is apparently 'amiably caddish'. I love these kinds of characters ngl.

Also, Joe will be jitterbugging? I can't wait to see that.

Variety crushes all my hopes for a good film though...

The performers in “Finally Dawn” are its weakest feature: big and broad, prone to pantomime, clashing with whatever it is their colleagues are doing. In the great Italian tradition of Pasolini et al., actors seem to have been cast for their faces more than their capacity to become someone new, and in the case of the English-speaking ones, give cringey line readings. Lily James has been dolled up to look like a glamorous Hollywood celebrity, but she conveys nothing of that imperious hauteur the greats (and even the second-rates) of that era projected, thereby failing to convince as either an A-list star or a pharaoh. The character might have been inspired by any number of real-life legends — my money’s on redhead Rita Hayworth, who dressed similarly in the abandoned, Rome-based “The Story of Joseph and His Brethren.” Her co-star, Joe Keery, plays an American named Sean Lockwood with all the gravitas of a Disney Channel star. At times, the acting in here is downright painful (though Willem Dafoe breathes impish life into his bilingual role, while the others stick to their native tongues).

And Hollywood Reporter seems to be as disappointed at them film as the rest, using big names in the title of the article but not mentioning them but in passing. Which probably says a lot about the film.

2 hrs 20 mins sounds long as is but if it is anywhere close to what the reviewers say, it's going to be very long 140 minutes just to see Joe. Though not that it would be the first time I spend time I'm never getting back just to see someone on the screen...

PS. I'm a huge film buff and I do have my hopes up that it's not going to be as crushing disappointment as the review suggest. These kinds of films are an acquired taste. It's good to remember that these reviews are just the views of the few people who've seen the film. They're not the ultimate truth but they do usually tell something about the film, especially when the three biggest mediums in the industry seem to agree a lot.

I've been interviewed and interviewed others a lot for various positions in the corporate software industry in the past few years, and in my experience this depends somewhat on the company and the role in question.

Some companies (especially small companies/startups) do actually try to assess personality traits from interviewing, to determine if the interviewee would be both good at their job and easy to get along with for their coworkers. Of course, interviewers usually aren't as good at this as they think they are, because of course it's very difficult to tell whether a person is actually likeable and competent in the relatively brief span of an interview, assuming the interviewee is even being genuine and not lying. Big companies like Google or Amazon do not care- most applicants will be weeded out by a filtering algorithm based on how many relevant buzzwords they have on their resume before ever getting to an interview. Interviewers for big companies are also less likely to be the teammates for that role and more likely to be HR or managers, who probably aren't actually experts in what that role actually looks like day-to-day. I've also submitted video "interviews" that are just a program showing pre-written questions on the screen, then filming you as you answer for the hiring managers to review later (in theory).

The role you're interviewing for also affects how you will be judged in a job interview. Software developers can usually be super awkward socially, but as long as they have the technical skills (usually as determined by their performance on various coding challenges the company arbitrarily determines, but that's another issue) and just enough communication ability to talk about technical concepts with coworkers, then that's really all the hiring managers care about. If you've made it to the interview step for most software development roles, then either you have the same qualifications as another applicant and they're trying to gather more information to pick between you, or you're pretty much hired unless you throw out a big red flag in the interview. On the other hand, roles that are more customer facing or involve managing people will care more about how confident and charming you seem. People familiar enough with those people-focused roles to be running interviews for them are also more likely to be neurotypicals surrounded by other neurotypicals, and therefore are more likely to register neurodivergent traits (fidgeting, speech difficulties, etc) as points against the interviewee.

For example, here's how I got hired at my current company. It's a relatively small software company, and I applied to an entry-level software developer role. I didn't usually get interviews for the roles I applied to because I don't look great on paper- GPA was mediocre, my college was good but too small to be well known, and the only industry-relevent jobs I had were two summer internships in an IT department (not software development). I'm also probably a little more awkward and introverted than the average person, BUT, compared to other software developers, my personality and communication skills were great in interviews. I had a couple shorter phone calls with a manager and HR, but the main interview was with my potential teammates, who asked questions about my work experience, personal skills, and technical knowledge for an hour or two. Then they had me fix a couple examples of broken code to show that I could (in C#, a language I did not know well btw), and I did ok in the first couple. I think there were 5 examples but I only got through 3, and on the third one I wasn't familiar with a certain function and asked for an explanation of how it works. They told me, and then I demonstrated that I understood now by changing the example input slightly and predicting what the new output would be due to that function. Afterwards I thought I did fine on the interview but not that great, and did not expect to get the job, but I did.

I later asked my manager, who was part of that interview, why they decided to hire me even though I had less relevent knowledge/experience and therefore needed to spend longer than most getting caught up to speed with the necessary skills for the job. He explained that I demonstrated I wanted to learn and was good at understanding new things quickly, all because I asked the question about how that function worked and showed that I understood the answer. I guess my take is that interviews are indeed a shitty and unfair experience, especially if the interviews where they do really only care about those magic buzzwords like op said. But sometimes companies try to evaluate on more than that too, so if you're looking for a job then know your perceived strengths as an employee and focus on applying to companies and roles that try to evaluate them more during the hiring process, if that makes sense.

remember that interviews are not about giving a good and honest first impression that they'll carefully consider. interviews are about saying the special words and phrases they're looking for that give you points and when they tally those up whoever earned the most job points wins

How to Build a Strong Offshore Recruitment Team: Training & Development Strategies

1. Comprehensive Onboarding and Induction Process

A solid onboarding process is essential to lay the foundation for any hiring team. This is even more important for offshore groups as there may be geographical, cultural or linguistic differences.

Company Overview: Explain your company’s culture, values, mission and vision to other offshore team members. Understanding the goals of the organization helps align their work with larger goals.

Tools and technology: Make sure your team is well-versed in hiring tools and systems. This can include applicant tracking systems (ATS), job boards, CRM tools, and communication systems like Slack, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams.

Communication strategy: Establish clear communication guidelines, such as preferred channels, response times, and frequency of updates. There needs to be consistency between teams onshore and ashore on how to communicate.

2. Cultural Sensitivity and Awareness Training

Offshore recruitment teams often work with candidates from different cultures, so understanding cultural nuances is essential to effective engagement and hiring in
