A job analysis breaks the specific position being filled down into its component parts. Each part of the job is separated into its essential features including skills, abilities, knowledge and attitudes needed to perform the job. By identifying the task and responsibilities of the position, the employer will be able to compare job applicants against the criteria of the job. Each job applicant can be tested (see Testing below) to measure their capabilities in each of the essential features of the job.
