The
fundamental reason that this classification exists is to develop multiple-tiered assessments
and multiple choice tests and to assist the department head in the supervision
and management of the Personnel Department. The major work responsibilities for the position include providing
administrative and management support to the Personnel Director; supervising employees;
planning and managing complex job
analysis, classification and testing projects; conducting job analysis; designing
selection procedures; and administering and scoring assessment centers or other
tests. The incumbents are
responsible for a wide variety of functions requiring knowledge of policies and
their application to unusual situations. The incumbents make decisions to develop procedures to solve problems,
use independent judgment, and exercise discretion in interpreting policies. The senior analyst differs from the personnel
analyst in that the senior analyst supervises, develops multi-tiered
assessments, and provides management support to the Personnel Director. The classification
is directly supervised by the Personnel Director.
Bachelor's degree from an accredited college or
university in industrial psychology, human resources or closely related field
with course work in tests and measurement, statistics and research methodology
