Answer to Question 1

Answer: TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Job analysis can be a time-consuming process. Managers can save time by holding group interviews with groups of employees who have the same job. Managers use group interviews when a large number of employees are performing similar or identical work, since this can be a quick and inexpensive way to gather information. Busy managers often turn to the Internet for help writing job descriptions because the process can save a great amount of time. Sites like ONET and www.jobdescription. com provide managers with important characteristics of various occupations, as well as the experience, education, and knowledge needed to do each job well.
