Module 2 – CaseACQUIRING AND RETAINING TALENTAssignment OverviewSignature Assignment: Information Literacy, Introduced levelIn this assignment, your information literacy skills will be assessed. The information literacy rubric will be useful for this purpose. In the course MGT407, information literacy skills will be assessed at the “introduced” level.

These factors are considered when recruiting applicants for job openings and making the best selection decisions possible.Being able to recruit and retain the “best” employees has been a challenging task for HR managers. The “best” employees are not necessarily the most qualified individuals (e.g., those with the most education or work experience); they are the individuals who provide value to an organization, who complement the organization, who understand and embrace the organization’s mission, who help build an inclusive workforce, and who fit the culture of the organization. This quandary is a result of a number of different variables such as job satisfaction, organizational commitment, job performance, motivation, and workplace compatibility.Furthermore, contemporary HR managers also are tasked with contributing to peak performance initiatives because of escalated global demands and competition.There are two important functions related to staffing; they include developing employees and building an inclusive workforce.Case AssignmentIn this assignment, assume you work for a consulting firm and have been tasked to help fill a position for a client company.
