Select Stars Job Profile Worksheet

Job Title :

Organization :

The Select Stars Job Profile Worksheet is a software design process that enables management to develop a job suitability benchmark for any position. It is recommended that the worksheet be completed by all available managers familiar with the job.

In combination with a current and thorough job description, this profile may be the basis for “matching” the best candidates with the position. This worksheet may also be used for Profiling the Stars, a proprietary methodology for assessing the top performers in a job category and matching qualities of new hires against the stars.

Hiring managers should review and update this benchmark and the position description each time the process is used.

To ensure the Select Stars Job Profile Worksheet is as accurate as possible, answers should only reflect ONLY the JOB IN QUESTION, and NOT THE CANDIDATE.
