Additional Content to Review:

- Talent management is the goal-oriented and integrated process of planning, recruiting, developing, managing, and compensating employees. Talent management means getting the right people (in terms of competencies) in the right jobs, at the right time, doing their jobs correctly.
- An effective talent management process should integrate the underlying talent management activities such as recruiting, developing, and compensating employees. The same competencies should be used for recruiting, training, and appraising. Firms should balance talent management tasks with testing and proactively manage workers by segmenting them into groups.
- Job analysis is the process of determining the duties of a specific job and the characteristics of the people who would be most appropriate for the job. A job analysis produces the necessary information to develop job descriptions and job specifications.
- A job description is a list of what a job entails, and it is derived from a job analysis. Job analysis is the procedure through which you determine the duties of job positions and the characteristics of the people that should be hired for the positions.
- Work activities, human behaviors, performance standards, job context, and human requirements are the types of information typically collected through a job analysis. Information gathered through a job analysis is used to develop job descriptions and job specifications. Managers use job analysis for the purpose of recruitment, compensation, training, and performance appraisal but not for assessing employee benefits options.
