Stars
Hollow Hat Company
Company History
The Stars Hollow Hat Company was founded in 2005. The company embroiders and sells hats to
clients consisting of athletic organizations and other companies who want to
give their employees hats with their company logo. Up until December of 2006, the company had 6
employees, including the owner. 1
Customer Service / Sales Representative and 4 Production staff (they make the
hats). Since this time, the business has
grown and the owner hired 6 additional customer service / sales
representatives. In February of 2007,
the Director promoted one of the customer service / sales representatives to
Supervisor. Also, since February, each
customer service / sales representative has taken on additional duties which
vary between positions.
Community Profile
In 2007 the City of Stars
Hollow had a population of 1,500 and County
Milky Way, of which Stars Hollow
City is the County Seat,
had a population of 5,000. Given current trends, the City is expected to
achieve a population of 2,300 by the year 2010. Stars
Hollow City
is located on the South West region of Wisconsin.
Agriculture is the primary industry and a major component in the economy of the
Stars Hollow City
and the North East region.
Current Situation
Since the company has increased its customer base and added employees to
meet the demand, the owner would like to have the jobs analyzed and determine a
hierarchy (job family). She thinks that
she will be adding even more reps in the next few months who will be focused
more on the sales side.
The Customer Service / Sales Supervisor perceives that some of the sales/customer
service representatives are not motivated to do the “sales” side of their job
and up-sell current customers who call in to place orders. Those individuals who are not motivated to
sell have shown excellent skills on the customer service side of the job
(problem solving, managing conflict), but they don’t necessarily possess the
skills for sales. She thinks that
possibly separating the duties and creating two job families, one for customer
service and one for sales may be beneficial.
Today, the Company employs 1 Customer Service Supervisor, 6 customer
service / sales representatives, 8 production staff, and one (1) administrative
assistant. 3 months ago the owners niece,
who is an HR Manager for a large company in Kansas, offered to help out and
conducted a functional job analysis of the customer service / sales
representative job. A copy of the job
analysis may be found in Appendix "A." The functional job analysis consisted of an interview with
the Customer Service Supervisor (Subject Matter Expert) who described the
functions of the job, as well as the KSAs.
In addition, as part of the analysis, the Customer Service Supervisor
rated the importance and level of difficulty of each function and KSA. This allows the analyst to identify and
prioritize the “essential” functions and KSAs.
Only “essential” functions and KSAs are transferred to a job
description.
As a next step in the project, the owner would like to use the
information from the job analysis to create job descriptions. She would also like to establish Job
Families: Customer Service and Sales. She needs your help!
Assignment Directions:
The owner’s niece does not have the time to complete the rest of this
project. The owner has asked you to help
her out. The owner thinks the company
will continue to grow and she wants to be prepared for adding more staff. Therefore, it makes sense to her to create a
job family that establishes a hierarchy and creates opportunity for promotions. Ultimately the job family will be used as a
way to determine the level of compensation too.
But, that is down the road.
Today, the owner would like you to utilize the Functional Job Analysis,
as well as the company information provided in the case, and outline what the
job families may look like for both customer service and sales. She realizes that you will need to make some
assumptions (how many levels), but would like an idea of what the job families could look like. Further she would like you to create one job
description for customer service representatives and one for sales
representatives.

Job Analysis
Position Title:Customer Service / Sales Representative
Subject Matter Expert: Customer Service Supervisor,
Stars Hollow Hat Company
This job analysis is based on input from the
subject matter expert(s) (SME) named above.
The purpose of this job analysis is to identify the functions (group of
tasks) performed by the job, and the competencies (knowledge, skills and
abilities) necessary for successful performance at Stars Hollow Hat
Company. Once the functions and
associated competencies are confirmed by the SME, a job description will be
created. Only those functions and KSAs
that have CRIT scores of 15 or above are considered “essential.” Essential functions are used as part of the
Job Description. Further, if there is no
incumbent in the position, selection exams (based on the criticality scores)
may be created as part of the hiring process.
Functions:
Functions performed by this position include, but
are not limited to, the list that follows.
The functions are to be rated by the subject matter expert on a scale of
1 to 5, with 1 representing the lowest and 5 representing highest level for
their importance to the job (IMP) and their difficulty of learning (DIFF). Their criticality (CRIT) is derived by
multiplying the importance rating by the difficulty rating. Thus, if a function is important but easy to
learn, it has a low criticality score and may not considered critical to
include in a job description.
Essential Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities:The following is a list of the knowledge, skills and
abilities needed to do the functions involved in the position. There are 22 KSAs included in the list; you
may not need to use all the core KSAs or you may need to add additional KSAs.
The column labeled "Functions" contains the
function number of the representative functions requiring the particular
KSA. These function numbers are to be
referenced to the function list above.
If you do not need to use a particular KSA, you should indicate not
applicable (n/a) in the functions column for that KSA.
The column labeled IMP contains the
average importance rating of
the KSA on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 representing most important to doing the
job. The column labeled DIFF contains
the average rating of the difficulty in learning or making a significant
improvement in the KSA. The column
labeled CRIT contains the criticality measure obtained by multiplying the
importance rating by the difficulty rating.
If a KSA is important and difficult to learn, it will be considered
critical to include in an assessment for selection in this position.
The last column labeled ENTRY is the
level of the KSA needed at hire. These
will be rated on a 1 to 5, with 1 representing little or none of the KSA needed
and 5 representing a high degree needed.
Those KSA determined to be needed at hire will be weighted accordingly
when scored.
