My Reflective Paper on Human Resource Management
Human resources development lies at the heart of economic, social and environmental development.

They are then responsible for recruiting new employees to replace those who leave and for filling newly created positions. (enote.com) The job description and the job specification are useful tools for the staffing process, the first of the seven HR functions to be discussed.

In large organizations, an employee requisition must be submitted to the HR department that specifies the job title, the department, and the date
