Carter Cleaning Company - Job Description

1. There is no format or final form but the store manager’s job description should include: * Job Identification * Job Summary * Responsibilities and Duties * Authority of incumbent * Standards of performance * Working conditions * Job specifications

2. It is practical to specify standards and procedures in the body of the job description because the job description should contain the standards of the company that they expect the employees to comply with and to perform their responsibilities and duties. Also to include the procedures and standards that are important and relevant for the applicants to comply with like performance in the company. It depends on the type of job under discussion as to what the standards to include.

3. Jennifer should go about collecting the information required for the standards, procedures and job description by conducting a job analysis for the job then list the standards, policies and procedures of the company that the employees must fulfill. Then she should use one or more of the methods for collecting information like interviews, questionnaires, observation and logs to help assess in making a decision. She should make sure the interviewee is able to operate equipment, perform skilled activities, physically active, decision makers and to process information. She can also use quantitative techniques for the job description like position and functional job analysis.

4. In my opinion the store manager’s job description should look like:

Job Title: Store manager | Company name: Carter Cleaning Company | Job Type: Manager | Location: Allista Towers | Division: Management Occupations | Non/Residence Status: Both | Department: Cleaning | Report to: President(Jennifer Carter) | | Date: January 26, 2011 |

Job summary

    Tanglewood Case 2

    Based on the environmental scan, it has been concluded that Tanglewood may have a hard time filling their vacancies in the future. Even though the unemployment rate in the area is high, recent forecasts suggest that expansion in the professional and managerial sectors of the labor market may reduce the number of individuals available for these jobs. Since Tanglewood only promotes from within, the entry level position of store associates does not appeal to many applicants. College graduates with management degrees are hesitant to start at a low position and work their way up. Many want the managerial position without putting in the work.…

    “Why this bilingual education ban should have repealed long ago”, is an op-ed piece from CNN written by Phillip M. Carter, a scholar of language and culture in U.S. Latino communities. Carter writes that multilingual education is needed to boost a globalized economy and support students that seek to develop bilingual fluency. Carter begins his argument by telling the reader about the years before the ballot Proposition 227 was passed. “Conditions were right” (Carter), Carter states that California had the ability to uplift their economy by building a multilingual economy, but instead a bilingual ban was created. The ban was issued because it was alleged that California’s language diversity, mostly Spanish, created a problem. However, Carter claims that after the 16-year ban, California…

    The election of 1980 was a key turning point in American politics. To present day, American’s still have strong feelings and opinions about their former President, Jimmy Carter. The result from the 1980 election, led to the appointment of Ronald Reagan as the 40th President of the United States of America, and the Republicans gained control of the Senate for the first time in twenty-five years. There are several reasons behind the animosity of American’s towards Jimmy Carter at the time and in present day. Ronald Reagan and the Republican Party were preferred over President Carter and the Democratic Party due to international and domestic issues that were occurring at the time of the 1980 election. The international issues were centred round the Iran Hostage situation, the Panama Canal Treaties and President Carter’s actions towards the Soviet Government. On the home front, the President was under scrutiny by the public due to his political pardons and his handling of the economy including high inflation rates and high unemployment. President Carter was also under scrutiny from conservative political and religious groups as to his ‘liberal’ policies that he had enacted during his term in office. In addition to the previous mentioned topics, the personality traits of Jimmy Carter were also examined during the 1980 election.…
