Chmiel (2009) defines job analysis as the analysis after collection of any information related to a specific job, for any purpose. A job analysis consists of two main parts. The first is the description of the job, giving all the details there can be in it. The second part is the specification of the person(s) executing the job, giving all the detail regarding ability, skills, knowledge, or any other quality required to do the job.
