You’ve earned your degree and you’ve landed a Senior Data Analyst position with Henson and Associates, a full-service staffing firm that services the entire eastern seaboard. The company wants to ensure that it’s attracting the best candidates and is negotiating the best possible salaries for them. You’ve been asked to conduct a quick survey of potential candidates (in the hiring/available database) to see how they fared at their last full time job. Your survey results are contained in the ‘Wage’ excel worksheet. As an analyst/researcher, you must now do a few things before presenting the findings to the executive team: Part I: Find at least five peer-reviewed articles on salary and wages for the staffing industry. The university (online) library is a great starting point for these. You may also try Google Scholar if you need to locate a few more. You’ll need to review and summarize these for your literature review. Part II: Based on these articles, what hypothesis/hypotheses would you derive? (Keep in mind that this data sets, due to limited class time, contains certain variables). Part III: Create a short survey to send out to the candidates. (Technically, you already have the results but how would you create a survey to get these results? Open or closed ended? Likert scale? How many points? Telephone survey? How would you accomplish this? This needs to be formatted as a real survey (or as my kids would say, ‘a legit survey’☺). A word document works just fine. Part IV: Now that you have your results, you must analyze the data. Provide: a) descriptive statistics, b) regression analysis using ‘hourly wage’ as the dependent variable and 3) ANOVA. All data/statistical tests and results must be contained in one excel workbook. Be sure to name the file beginning with you last name: example: ‘Henson – Wage Analysis Project’. Part V: The final stage of this is the write-up, the research report. The report consolidates all of the work you’ve done so far. The report should include the following sections: - Abstract Introduction Literature Review (synthesis of literature and hypotheses/statement of the problem) Research Methods (Data Analysis; what did you do and how?) Discussion of Results (Summary tables of the organized/categorized data; Results as planned? Prove or disprove hypotheses?) Conclusion (summary of project; potential future research) References The project should be done in APA 6th style, 1 inch margins, 1.5 spacing, and size 12 font (because my old eyes can’t see anything smaller). The minimum required length for the project is 7 pages without references. ***There will be two files for submission: the excel data file with the statistics and the word file for the write-up. Have fun with this!!! Be creative and think through this write-up. You know this stuff already…you’ve learned it along the way. Dr. Henson

Abstract
Organizations with the best employees are also well known in their industry. Most
individuals would like to be associated with such companies. The best employees would do the
unimaginable to get the attention of such companies. It is important for organizations to be
prominent to attract such employees. Prominent organizations have a great employee culture and
they offer their employees the best compensation and benefits.
Problem statement
Organizations that lack the best and skilled employees face a high chance of undergoing
losses. It is important also for the company to motivate its employees because when they are
motivated there is greater productivity and the customers are satisfied. Lack of motivation will
make employees less productive. When the employees are not motivated, they will not be in a
position to overcome challenges due to the lack of enthusiasm and energy to try various solutions.
They also show lack of concern. They arrive at work late and they don’t apologize. Pay check is
what keeps them within the organization and they are usually unwilling to undertake additional
tasks. When there is no motivation within the organization, it results in poor customer service
because such employees are never willing to go an extra mile of helping the customer.
Objectives
To attract the best candidates in the organization
To negotiate the best possible salaries for the employees
Literature Review
Henson and Associates is a full-service which offers its services to the entire eastern board.
