Job Description Paper
A Human Resources Manager cannot draft an accurate job description without first performing a job analysis. The analysis collects and evaluates information pertaining to a job’s content and human requirements which is then used as a resource for creating the job description (Youssef, 2012).

Project managers for a janitorial business perform the same tasks as a project manager for a construction company, just with different end products. A job description for a project manager includes overall direction, coordination, implementation, execution and control of specific projects within the company’s strategy and goals. This paper will describe the tasks, tools and technology, knowledge, skills and abilities, and educational requirements of the project manager as well as recruiting techniques and methods of assessment for recruitment for a qualified project manager.
A job description has three parts that identify the tasks, duties and responsibilities to be fulfilled (Patò, 2013). It contains an identification section introducing the job title, department, location and other information needed to track employees by the human resource manager. A general summary is a clear statement that summarizes the job and differentiates it from others. The third part is a detailed list that specifies the functions, tasks, duties, assignments, commitments and responsibilities that the job entails.

He needs to define project tasks and the
