process analysis 1
Use the outline format, headings and tables provided and follow all formatting instructions below.
Begin with your Section I (Stage 1 assignment), making changes based on feedback you received and add Section II.Apply specific information from the case study to address each area.
II.Process Analysis
- Hiring Process:
Part 1 – To understand what the new hiring system needs to do for CIC, you will first analyze the current hiring process (often referred to as the “as-is processâ€).The stakeholder interviews in the CIC Case Study provide some needed information about how the process is currently conducted, but you may need to make some additional logical assumptions.You will need to combine the steps that each interviewee discusses and organize them into a logical sequence showing the high-level start to finish process.First, insert an introductory opening sentence for this section that addresses both Part 1 and Part 2 below.Then, insert into the table the steps that are missing and enter the position title of the person who would perform each step. The beginning and ending steps have been provided for you and should remain in your table.Each process step should be concise and include an action verb.(Provide an introductory sentence and copy the table and insert information within.)
Part 2 – The overall hiring process has several steps which you listed for Part 1 above.For each of the steps listed, complete the To-Be Process column in the table describing how this part of the process will be supported by the technology solution to improve the hiring process.Then complete the Business Benefits of the Improved Process column by explaining how this part of the process can contribute to the overall business strategy – think at a higher level than the specific process step. For each step, identify the result of using the system, as shown in the two examples.While it is important the system will speed up each step of the process, think about how CIC or the responsible employees would benefit from using an automated system to perform that step.
The first row and last rows have been completed for you as an example and must be retained and not revised.Insert logical steps that would sequentially fall between #1 and #12.

EXAMPLE PROVIDED – Retain as #1 |
Recruiter |
Receive application via on-line submission through CIC Employment Website and store in applicant database. |
More efficient submission process decreases time needed to receive and begin processing applications. This will present a positive image to potential employees and help CIC compete for top IT talent. |

12. Ted prepares offer letter based on information from recruiter and puts in the mail to the chosen candidate. EXAMPLE PROVIDED – Retain as #12. |
Administrative Assistant |
Prepares job offer letter by selecting information needed for specific candidate; system completes the template with stored information, and Ted reviews and emails to candidate. |
More efficient offer process presents positive image to applicants and decreases time needed to prepare offer letter, and enable CIC to hire in advance of the competition. |
B.Expected Improvements – As noted in the case study, there are a lot of manual processes, overwhelming paperwork, difficulty scheduling interviews, etc.A technology solution can address many of these issues.For each of the areas listed in the table below, provide examples of issues from the case study and how a technology solution could be used to improve these areas.Issues and improvements should be addressed in 1-2 clear, complete sentences with information incorporated from the case study. The first one is provided as an example. (Provide an introductory sentence and copy the table and insert information within.)

Collaboration:
EXAMPLE PROVIDED:
|
The Hiring Manager states that he isn’t as responsive to HR as he could be as recruiting is only one of the many areas he is responsible for.Therefore, he depends on Recruiters to stay on top of the recruiting process. |
An efficient system with all information in one place, easily accessible and updated in real time could make his recruiting job easier; and he could devote time to effectively working collaboratively and proactively with HR on his staffing needs. |
|
Communications: Explain how a hiring system could improve internal and external communications |
||
|
Workflow: Explain how a hiring system could improve the CIC hiring process by providing a consistent structure for each participant to perform his/her part in the hiring process. |
||
|
Relationships: Explain how implementing an enterprise hiring system could foster stronger relationships with applicants/potential employees. |
Formatting Your Assignment
Consider your audience – you are writing in the role of a CIC business analyst and your audience is CIC and your boss, the CIO.Don’t discuss CIC as if the reader has no knowledge of the organization.Use third person consistently throughout the report.In third person, the writer avoids the pronouns I, we, my, and ours. The third person is used to make the writing more objective by taking the individual, the “self,†out of the writing. This method is very helpful for effective business writing, a form in which facts, not opinion, drive the tone of the text. Writing in the third person allows the writer to come across as unbiased and thus more informed.
- In Stage 2, you are preparing the second part of a 4-stage report.Use the structure, headings, and outline format provided here for your report.
- Begin with Section I, revised according to any feedback received and add to it Section II.
- Write a short concise paper:Use the recommendations provided in each area for length of response.It’s important to value quality over quantity.Section II should not exceed 3 pages.
- Content areas should be double spaced; table entries should be single-spaced.
- To copy a table:Move your cursor to the table, then click on the small box that appears at the upper left corner of the table to highlight the table; right click and COPY the table; put the cursor in your paper where you want the table and right click and PASTE the table.
- Ensure that each of the tables is preceded by an introductory sentence that explains what is contained in the table, so the reader understands why the table has been included.
- Continue to use the title page created in Stage 1 that includes:The company name, title of report, your name, Course and Section # and date of this submission.
- Use at least two resources with APA formatted citation and reference for this Stage 2 assignment.Use at least one external reference and one from the course content. Course content should be from the class reading content, not the assignment instructions or case study itself.
- Add the references required for this assignment to the Reference Page.Additional research in next stages will be added to this as you build the report.The final document should contain all references from all stages appropriately formatted and alphabetized.
- Running headers are not required for this report.
- Compare your work to the Grading Rubric below to be sure you have met content and quality criteria.
- Submit your paper as a Word document, or a document that can be read in Word.Keep tables in Word format – do not paste in graphics.
- Your submission should include your last name first in the filename:Lastname_firstname_Stage_2
