What BUSI 443 covers

Heneman, Judge and Kammeyer-Mueller's Staffing Organizations is read two chapters a week, with cases, exercises and skill builders from Nkomo, Fottler and McAfee's Human Resource Management Applications and three open-book reading quizzes.

Forums set word ranges rather than only floors, 400 to 500 words for threads with two peer-reviewed sources and 250 to 350 for replies with one; each case study runs three to five pages with two peer-reviewed sources; the job analysis project pairs a Week 2 topic and annotated bibliography with a six- to eight-page job description and analysis in Week 7.

Liberty's 2026-2027 catalog describes BUSI 443 Workforce Planning and Employment this way:
This course will focus on recruitment, assessment, selection, placement and appraisal issues and methods necessary to align the organizational workforce with the strategic goals of the organization. The laws and guidelines related to the DOL, INS, EEOC, and other legal enforcement agencies as related to the staffing process will be reviewed.

Where BUSI 443 papers lose points

BUSI 443 work loses points when forum posts run outside their word ranges, when case answers restate the textbook instead of applying it to the case's figures, when recruitment sources are compared on volume rather than retention, and when a job description lists duties that the job analysis never established.

Using a BUSI 443 sample well

The samples draw on research about external hiring and internal mobility, human capital, internal job posting, job analysis accuracy and reliability, turnover and firm performance, recruitment sources, applicant attraction, realistic job previews, selection validity, structured interviews, assessment centers, the Peter Principle, applicant fairness, organizational justice, work design, competency modeling, job embeddedness and turnover predictors.
