Step Two: Benchmark all your jobs
Identify the critical requirements for each job as well as factors that contribute to a good fit between the employee and the organization. Job requirements define the content of the job while organizational culture often drives how the job is done.
Using Job Match Patterns to create benchmarks for all your jobs minimizes the time required to efficiently describe jobs, people and their degree of match. The descriptive process usually starts by examining the score pattern of those who are most successful within a position and those who seem to be overly challenged by the position. From this information, a pattern of scores across the various dimensions measured by the ProfileXT may be developed to serve as the initial Job Match Pattern, upon which the job matching is based.
The ProfileXT allows concurrent study of available incumbents, job requirement assessments by those who know the job, preliminary job patterns and Job Analysis Survey, or a combination of these, to create a Job Match Pattern.
By using a Job Match Pattern, it becomes easy to quickly identify individuals that will tend to fit well into positions, and in what way they might have adjustments to make. This information is important for both job placement and job training.
