Assessment Task 2 Instructions as provided to students
Complete the following activities:

Carefully read the following.

You have been appointed as the Human Resources Manager of a health resort and
convention centre in the Blue Mountains, near Sydney. The resort, Blue Healer Spa, is made
up of five areas: catering, wellness, meeting rooms, accommodation, and administration.
Each area has its own full-time manager.
The kitchen is large enough to feed over 100 people three meals each day. There are four
full-time kitchen staff, and the rest of the staff are hired on a casual basis to cater for
functions and retreats.
There is accommodation for 80 people in twin and double rooms. Surrounding hotels
provide further accommodation when needed.
There are four meeting rooms of various sizes, and these can be opened up to make one
large room for functions such as weddings and courses. There is also a service area where
computers and printers can be accessed.
The wellness area has two saunas, a steam room, three warm water spas, four massage
rooms and four consultation rooms where naturopathic consultations and facial treatments
are performed. The spa runs continuously, mostly due to locals visiting, whether a course is
running or not.
Reception includes the front desk and the office where the accounts are done, and records
kept. It is an open plan office with 5 staff workstations.
There has been an increase in bookings over the coming six months, and the resort’s
accountant has calculated that the increase in income could pay for one additional full-time
position and one casual position. You have been asked to work out how many new staff
could be recruited and on what basis applicants should be selected.
The Blue Mountains Historical Society has long had an interest in the Blue Healer Spa. It
has undergone many renovations and additions over the last century, and it is considered to
be a very important historic building. The society has asked the resort whether it would be
interested in letting some of their volunteers lead tours through the older parts of the
building complex. The resort has agreed in principle but insisted that the prospective tour
volunteers undergo an interview and selection process as all new staff members do. That
way they can ensure that their high standards of customer service are maintained.

1. Send an email to all the Area Managers

Review the Blue Healer’s Recruitment, Selection and Induction Policy and
Procedures.
It states that before you can begin the recruitment process, you are required to
consult with your colleagues to ensure that you have enough information on the
resort’s staffing needs and job descriptions.
The text of your email should ask the managers to define what positions they need
filled and what the new employees will be expected to do once they are working at
the job.

1. Write a recruitment report

As set out in the resort’s policies and procedures, you are required to submit a
report on the anticipated recruitment process to the Management Team for their
approval prior to the positions being advertised.
Begin by reviewing the following:
 The Managers’ replies to your email
 Service and Efficiency Report
 Recruitment, Selection and Induction Policy and Procedures
 Position Descriptions
For the purposes of this assessment, you will be required to recruit, interview and
select applicants for three positions at the resort.
 One full time permanent position
 One casual position
 One volunteer position
Your report should include the following:
 Each area of the resort’s recruitment needs. These should be based on a
combination of the Managers’ replies and your own monitoring of each area’s
service and efficiency levels.
 A required skills profile of each potential employee. Determine whether any of
the positions would qualify for a government-subsidised traineeship or
apprenticeship.
 Selection criteria. These should be:
o Based on the Job Descriptions

o Written in clear and concise language to ensure they are not

misinterpreted.
o Incorporate the required customer service attitude

o Incorporate the required level of experience

 A summary of the relevant employment related legislation. This should include


equal employment opportunity (EEO) legislation.
 An estimate of the advertising costs and the cost of the new positions.
 A summary of the company’s processes for getting approval for the cost of the
new positions
 A summary of the company’s processes for getting approval for the recruitment
of the new personnel
 A description of the selection process that will be followed. This should include:
o The required make-up of interview panels

o The procedures for employment checks that will be followed

Use the Recruitment Report Template to guide your work.


When completed, submit it to your Management Team (your assessor) ask for their
feedback and request that they approve it.

2. Write position advertisements

Use the information from your Recruitment Report to write an advertisement for
each of the three new positions. These will then be placed on several job search
websites.
Combine these three texts into one document and save it as Recruitment
Advertisements.
When completed, submit it to the resort’s Marketing Manager (your assessor), who
will send them on to the appropriate websites.
The responses will be collected and collated by the Administration Officer.

3. Re-advertise positions.

You will have noticed that the response to two of the advertised positions was
inadequate.
Consider whether posting the advertisements on the internet is the most effective
way of reaching potential candidates for these positions. Determine which media
would be more appropriate for advertising the positions.
You are required to send at least one email for each position that received an
inadequate number of applications. Each email should be sent to the medium of
your choice, with the advertisement you developed for it in activity 3 as part of the

them as set out in the Recruitment, Selection and Induction Policy and Procedures.

report and select at least two applicants to interview for each position.

When completed, submit your Selection Report to the Management Team (your
assessor), asking for their approval of your selections.

recruitment information to them.
Ensure that this email is sent within the timeframe set out in the Recruitment,
Selection and Induction Policy and Procedures.
