In this assignment, I will compare the purpose of the different recruitmentand selection documents used in the selection and recruitment process of
Sainsbury’s. I will compare the different documents with each other in the
context of the vacancy and note the different types of information and
how they will be used in the recruitment and selection process.
- A job advert is an announcement about a specific job which is available.
It is usually created by the human resources manager of Sainsbury’s,
executive search firms or employment agencies. The purpose of the job
advert is to find one or more individual to fill a specific job post. Job
adverts intend to attract the right candidate for a vacant position. A job
advert should include the company name, job title, salary, place, job
description, contract hours…
On the other hand, a CV, also known as curriculum vitae, provides an
overview of a person's experience, skills, employment history other
qualifications. In most cases, a CV is typically the first item that a
potential employer considers to screen and select applicants. Unlike a job
advert, a CV is prepared and created by the individual concerned himself.
- A job description is a document that sets out the purpose of the job,
where the job fits into the organisation structure, the main duties and
responsibilities of the job and key tasks to be performed. The main
purpose of the job description is to define where the job is positioned in
the organisation structure. It also provides essential information to
potential recruiting team so that they can determine the right kind of
person to do the job. In other words, this particular document briefly
shows what successful applicants will be doing. Therefore, this enables
people to know what the work involves and therefore apply if it sounds
appealing.
Conversely, a completed application form is a form provided by a business
and filled by an interested party which indicates interest in a particular
place of employment or position within a company. It typically requests
personal identification information, such as name, address and phone
number, as well as a history of job experience. This is then forwarded to
the employer, who reads through and makes selection decisions to fill in a
vacancy.
