  • The topic must be directly related to a specific issue covered in the course material or related to selection or recruitment.

PART 2:

The paper will include an annotated bibliography with a minimum of 10 books, magazines and/or journal references on their topic.

  • At least half of the sources are to be no more than two years old. Emphasis must be placed on current events topics that directly the human resource staffing and recruiting function, so several references used should be dated within the last 18 months.
  • At least one reference must provide a theoretical framework to support key points made in the body of the paper.
  • Not more than two academic textbooks will be counted in the total number of references for credit. In addition to writing style, intellectual rigor will be assessed by the variety, depth and professional nature of the sources cited (i.e. professional magazines and journals will score higher than general interest sources and unsupported Internet items.
  • YOU WILL AUTOMATICALLY LOSE ONE LETTER GRADE FOR FAILING TO SUBMIT AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY.

PART 3:
