Job Design & Analysis

A job analysis identifies the important knowledge, skills and abilities (KSA) required in a job. The work of Applied Assessments brings to bear the principles of Industrial/Organizational Psychology in studying and analyzing jobs. We apply a wide array of job analysis techniques as appropriate for your application. These may include direct job observations, task surveys, structured job analysis questionnaires, collection of critical incidents, subject matter verification panels, etc.
