Assignment: Organizational
Structure
You are the HR manager
for a small retail company that sells a high volume of products over the
Internet. Your company is growing rapidly due to increased Internet
sales. Your company prides itself on providing high-quality products and
services. The Customer Service department is integral to the success of the
company. Over the past few months, the Customer Service department has been
unable to fill its openings for Customer Service Representative positions. You
suspect there could be a number of reasons for this, but you know you first
need to look at the job, the work flow, the knowledge, skills, abilities, and
experience the company is seeking to ensure the job reflects the current
workload and expectations.

1. Examine at least three (3) approaches that you
can take as the HR manager to conduct a job analysis of the Customer Service
Representative position. Suggest the major pros and cons of each selected
approach. Recommend the approach that would be most effective in conducting the
job analysis for this organization. Justify your recommendation.
2. Select two (2) out of the four (4) approaches
to job design that are the most important for you to consider. Suggest two (2)
challenges that you may encounter when designing a job using each of the
selected approaches. Support your response with specific examples to illustrate
the potential advantages and disadvantages of using each approach.
3. Using the four (4) approaches to job design,
create two (2) strategies that the organization can implement to attract and
select qualified applicants for the Customer Service Representative position.
Justify the main reasons that the selected strategies would be effective.

information obtained from a job analysis to measure the performance of Customer
