Flexible Staffing”: answer questions 1–3.
Chapter 4, “Applications: Conducting Job Requirements
or Job Rewards/Job Analysis”: answer questions 1–5.
Submit this assignment by 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Sunday.
I recommend waiting until you receive your grade and grading
rubric for the Week 1 case before submitting your Week 2 case to this link.
The grading rubric for the Week 1 case contains comments and
suggestions for improving your writing, analysis, and APA formatting.
I anticipate having all Week 1 cases graded and returned to
students by midnight Thursday of Week 2. -DG
Professor’s recommendations/reminders:
Prior to beginning this assignment, please explore the “Case
Study Instructions” link above.
Please review again the “Professor’s Improvement
Suggestions” document available for download in the “Syllabus and Assignment
Instructions” area of the Course Content. Reading and following the “Case
Studies” section of this document will help you achieve full credit on the case
studies.
If Chapter 4, “Applications: Conducting Job
Requirements or Job Rewards/Job Analysis” is selected, the typed matrix is
a table and must be captioned as such using the APA format. In addition to the
matrix (table), you must also submit a minimum of three pages of typed analysis
and discussion.
The typed analysis and discussion must be in narrative
prose, and not bulleted statements.
You must submit one MS Word attachment containing a title
page, at least three complete pages of original analysis and discussion, and a
references page (a minimum of one current, scholarly reference published in or
after 2011).
Correct use of the APA format for in-text citations and the
references list is required for all BUSI 643 assignments.
One inch margins on all four sides, and 12 point Times New
Roman fonts on all pages – title page, narrative, and references list.
Good tips on how to cite in-text and list references are
available in the Professor’s Improvement Suggestions document.
Do not add extra spaces between lines, do not add extra
white space at the top or bottom of pages, and do not use margins greater than
one-inch. Doing so will result in a short paper and a significant grading
reduction.
Submitting 2.9 pages of typed narrative or less will result
in a significant grading reduction. The required title page and required
references page do not count toward the minimum page count.
The case study must have a title page (title of paper, student’s
name, course number and name, and the date submitted) and an APA-formatted
references list.
Graduate-level analysis and discussion of case study
scenarios requires good narrative prose. As such, please do not submit bulleted
or numbered statements in case studies.
Use tables and figures sparingly; if these are used they
must be captioned correctly in the APA format and do not count toward the
three-page minimum of typed narrative.
The APA format requires that you insert in-text citations at
the correct places in the narrative each and every time someone else influenced
your work and when you use the ideas, statistics, terms or information of
others.
