Step 1: Analyze the Job The first step is to analyze the job and write job descriptions
and job specifications. Here, you need to specify the human traits and
skills you believe are required for adequate job performance. For example,
must an applicant be verbal, a good talker? Is programming required? Must the
person assemble small, detailed components? These requirements become the
predictors. These are the human traits and skills you believe predict success on
the job.
