What questions did everyone find easy/difficult?
How did people structure the 10 mark question?

What questions did everyone find easy/difficult?
How did people structure the 10 mark question?

Any day of the week I would have got at least 95% but due to VCAA being ambiguous and me being a grammar nazi over describing x and y meaning multiple, I dropped a tonne of marks for overthinking or being led into a stupid trap that I usually would have got.

With 10 marker I forgot to define employment cycle but I started talking about planking and the link between org objectives, hr objecgies and strategies and ensure job design and job specification are planner around objectives, and that the selection of applicants blablabla skipped a bit

For PI and maintenance phase I had no idea. I talked about induction and how a successful induction could be measured throgh staff satisfaction surveys and training and development (defined both) would create more satisfied employees which improves performance, so it could be measured by rate or productivity growth. Forgot to we rite about rewards and performance until I started next one and has no where to write about it and ran out of time.

For management styles in termination I basically compared two styles of autocratic and participative. Started by describing autocratic, saying it may lead to resignations but would be effective in employer Initiated termination as their is now discussion. In participative stayed which I describes a few features, I said that employees would be more satisfied from feeling valued therefore less would resign, but when employers need to terminate employees there may be a need for consultation and not immediately. Terminated employees may also destroy relationships built under the style will be broken and more employees may feel unsatisgued and obligated to terminate their contract til.

More or less what I wrote, hoping for 7/10 even thigh I reckon 9/10 cause I forgot definition

With the maintenance phase I started by discussing what was involved e.g. reward and recognition, motivation, induction etc. Then I described performance indicators such as rate of productivity growth and staff satisfaction by linking them to the success of the staff maintenance of an organization

For termination I just analyzed participative as it can give support to employees being terminated and can also be ESM of HR if done so  appropriately.

Also like you, I believe I should have gotten fairly high marks but probably lost some due to sloppy structure of some questions.  :-\ Oh well I guess time will tell

Your response to the first and third dotpoint sound absolutely crisp. By definition 'planning' in the HR phase involved forecasting the number of employees available and the number of skilled employees required in the future. This process includes developing a job analysis, job specifications and job designs.

And wow! That last dot point, you took a great approach (in my opinion) that wasn't really something I personally looked at.

Also your second point seems good as well!

Was it necessary to define 'employment cycle'? I though the marks were broken down as:

- 1 mark for defining Human Resource Management
- 3 marks for the planning dot point
- 3 marks for the maintenance dot point
- 3 marks for the termination dot point

Anyone else agree?

I believe that the 10 markers are marked more holistically than by criteria
