Review of the Literature Research Paper

Step 1:  Strengths to Leverage

Step 2:  Course Learning Goals

Step 3:  Course Outcomes & Assessment

Strength 1

Good attitude
and my wiliness to learn. When I started this course I did not know much
about this topic but my wiliness to learn has been one of my biggest
strength.

Personal I
wanted to learn as much as I can about recruitment & selection. After
taking this course I can safely say that I have learned and gained a lot. My
goal was to understand the basic recruitment & selection concepts,
understand various labor laws, and final how companies reward their
employees. Yes all the above mentioned learning goals were meet.

I was very
impressed with the course outcome. From the material used, to Dr. Vince and
all the way to my fellow students everything was second to none. Although the
assessments were a little bit hard, the workload was manageable. So in a
nutshell personally, the course outcome was more or less what I expected.

Strength 2

Team Player
(Skills)

Ability to use
the KSAOs

My goal was to
learn where as an individual I fit in the HR profession. I have learned that
HR has many different departments covering different areas from employees’
benefits and all the way to dealing with government department as well and
that needs a team player. I have also learned how companies can use the
social network to attract and retain best talent, and I have learned the
various methods of incentive pay and their impact on HR and the
organization’s competitive strategies.

I am very
happy with the course outcome and the knowledge I have gained by taking this
course. I will always treasure this knowledge and I will put every bit of it
to good use in my future endeavor. 
Personal I think this course has just made me an all-round manager
because HR was the miss part of my management degrees. I am a very happy with
the outcome. I have also learned how to identify appropriate activities that
will lead to successful recruiting strategy within an organization.

Strength 3

Positive attitude
and ability

to lead

My main goal
was to learn how expatriates are recruited, compensated and the process
involved in selecting a suitable the person. As a leader I have also learned
how expatriates are settled in foreign countries as well as laws involved in
settling expatriates. This course has really helped me to appreciate the role
of HR when it comes to expatriates and their compensation.

I am very thankful for taking this course
and the knowledge gained is of a life time. After this course I can safely
say the outcome was very good as I said before I will say it again, the
outcome was more or less what I expected from this course. After taking this
course I am now able to tell and evaluate the different external assessment
methods used by HR to hire talent, analyze an organization internal selection
processes.

Step
1:  Areas to develop

Step
2:  Course Learning Goals

Step
3:  Course Outcomes & Assessment

Area 1

Communication both within and outside
the organization

Need to learn more about ERISA, COBRA
and HJIPPA. Also my goal is to as HR manager to be a good communicator both
in writing and oral. The ability to communicate properly as manager is very
important and that is one thing I wanted to learn from this course and I did.

This course taught me that as a HR
representative/ personal I need to improve on my communication and that is
one area I will be working on. Overall the outcome of this course was very
good; I personal enjoyed it although in some units the work load was too
much. 

Area 2

Weekly reading

Need to improve on my weekly reading
schedule because I was behind during most of the time and trying to play
catch –up was not cool. This course has taught me that as HR representative I
will be reading constantly hence the need to improve on that. 

Like what I always say in everything
we do in life there is always room for improvement and in my case reading
constantly is one area I need to work on. Otherwise the course outcome was
good and it pin-pointed my short comes when it comes to reading.

Area 3

Ability to share my knowledge

The course has taught me as HR
representative how to share my knowledge with others, it has also taught me
the broader picture of HR which I was not aware of and I need to improve on
those areas.

Wow what a well-developed course, I
loved it.
