Reviewing the job responsibilities of current employees.It is critical that you ask the actual employees what they do. Frequently, HR and management (especially senior management) have no idea what the day to day functions of any job are. They may see the output, but have no idea what goes into it. If you're asked to list your current responsibilities for a job analysis, be thorough. Don't just say "produce monthly reports.” Say, "gather data from 6 different departments, check the data for accuracy using custom designed Access tool that I created and maintain, etc., etc., etc.” If you leave off the details they may think your report is simply a button that you push once a month to produce.
