Job Analysis Survey

Information gathered by this survey will be used as part of creating a job match pattern for a particular position. As you complete the survey, draw upon your resources such as a written job description and knowledge of and experience in the job. You may want others who are very familiar with the position to complete a survey also.

INSTRUCTIONS:
As you complete the survey, consider the job itself, not what a person who does the job might be like. Use the following definitions to differentiate between the terms "rarely", "occasionally", and "frequently"

Rarely - An activity performed infrequently (or not at all) that is not a key part of the job.
Occasionally - An activity performed less often, but, the activity is a job function.
Frequently - An activity performed every day as a primary job function.

To complete the survey, read each statement and relate it to the particular job.

Be realistic. Respond in terms of acceptable job performance standards, not in a terms of a "perfect" employee.

The results of this survey will be an important part in the development of a Job Match Pattern so it is important to be as accurate as you can!

When entering the results from this survey into the computer, use 1 "Rarely", 2 for "Occasionally", and 3 for "Frequently."
