Lauren Kurtz BMGT360 0105 December 30 2012 Assignment 9 CompTech It appears as though CompTech has evident issues in their hiring process By hiring a full time Training and Development Manager they can assure that all managers undergo a uniform training process that will accurately prepare them for their position As per tradition CompTech tends to hire approximately sixty percent of their managers from outside of the company this directly affects how groomed a manager is when starting in a new position For instance more than half of newly hired managers are not familiar with anything about how the business works let alone how to properly manage one of the stores This means that the training process must be much more in depth for the managers coming in from outside of the company By hiring someone to fulfill the position of training these outside managers all managers will receive the necessary attention be able to gain the best possible preparation when coming into their new roles O NET could be a very helpful resource in finding this Training and Development Manager By posting the position and details online CompTech could attract qualified candidates to apply for this position O NET will be helpful in finding managers for different regions as well On the other hand O NET will most likely not be helpful in the actual training process because it is catered toward recruitment By dropping the MBA requirement for hiring store managers CompTech would experience a great deal of benefits and disadvantages For example they would greatly broaden their market of applicants which could in turn help them to see a better variety of candidates They may find that there are more personable candidates outside of this MBA group who are greatly qualified despite lacking the higher degree On the other hand they may find that the MBA requirement is ideal for attracting a more intellectual applicant pool If all of their managers have obtained this degree it represents the drive and determination they all have in their education and career paths According to their Manager Demographics white males dominate all manager positions within the company This is a very evident EEO issue that should be addressed immediately In order to take care of this potential issue it is necessary for CompTech to adjust their managerial positions to include a variety of both predominant genders as well as all races A lack of diversity within authoritative roles will put CompTech at a disadvantage There must be clear equality among all races ethnicities genders and ages and the current Manager Demographics prove that this is not the case With the twenty vacancies CompTech should recruit among a more diverse group of applicants and fill in their numbers for managers of the minority races This will in turn help CompTech lead a more diverse future
