Human Resources in Government Contractors
Imagine that you are working as Director of Human Resources
in a privately held, mid-sized engineering and manufacturing organization that
is a government contractor. Your boss, the VP of HR, has asked you to:
Prepare a brief but comprehensive plan (4-5 pages) in which
you pull together and integrate the organization’s recruitment, selection, and
onboarding processes. Your plan must effectively cover the range of the
organization’s needs and issues related to finding, attracting, and
successfully hiring and onboarding:
Engineers
Skilled labor
Production and facilities workers
Challenges: Your facilities are located in a city that has a
larger than average percentage of people who are receiving various forms of
public assistance. The city also has a lower than average number of college
graduates and professionals, due to flight from the region to high tech hubs in
the Northeast and Southwestern United States.
