According to Greiner (2015, p.114), for an organization to function properly, a good recruitment
strategy is one of the necessary measures that are needed. Failure to this, the hired personnel will
make the company to fail as poor decisions will be the main cause. For a good recruitment
strategy, a company needs to carry out a job analysis which basically involves the process of
identifying and determining all the responsibilities of an individual holding a given post in an
organization (Calvasina 2014,p.51).
Good Life Health Club has an intention of expanding across the country and for this to happen
more employees are needed to make it a success. A fitness director is one of the job vacancies
that need to be filled and the Club has come up with a variety of strategies to choose the best
qualified candidate for the post. The selected fitness director will carry out a number of
responsibilities including managing the PTs of the organization, developing all the fitness
programmers of the club with respect to the facilities available and also report to the top
management office (Draganidis 2006, p.51). The best candidate for the job will also instruct all
the staff to ensure that the Club greatly benefits from the services they have to offer while also
ensuring customer satisfaction.
In the modern world, jobs are evolving at a very fast pace and it is the responsibility of the
management to choose the best recruitment strategy to hire the best workforce. Good Life Health
Club in its quest to get the best personnel for this job should make use of a good strategy that
will make it easy to analyze all the sectors. Competency Strategy puts more emphasis on the
professional qualifications of an individual and any one applying for the job must have enough
skills which can be proved through a number of interviews with the management or the person
who initially held the post of fitness director in the organization. Good Life Fitness Health Club
will use make use of the incumbent and the supervisor to collect all the evidence of competence

from job seekers. Anyone who has applied will have to meet all the set standards in order to be
pronounced fit to fill the role of the fitness director (Greiner 2015,p.114).
Any person that applies for the job should have proof of the necessary requirements and
experience that is needed to carry out the job. An original and photocopy of the academic
qualification documents and recommendations by previous employers should be available during
the interview. This strategy allows all the applicants to showcase their knowledge in the field by
giving them the chance to share what they have learnt. By making use of a competency strategy,
the Club will benefit from a number of advantages which are necessary for the development of
the Club and are useful in meeting all needs of the customers (Muscalo 2015,p.351).The
Competency based approach is advantageous in that it puts more focus on the current techniques
that the applicant possesses and how it will be of importance in the success of the club. It is also
possible to check how the qualifications of anyone applying for the job will impact to the
challenges that the club is currently facing or the problems it may face in the future. Finally, it
makes it possible for the club to hire well trained personnel who are able to work effectively
despite any challenges that they might face.
According to Narang (2012,p.239) for this strategy to work, Good Life Health must make use of
competencies models and using them as underpinnings of several human resource applications.
By using this strategy, the Club will create awareness and understanding on the need to change
how the business operates, improve the level of team work coordination, enhance the skill levels
of all the employed staff and come up with new designs of running the Club.
Good Life Health club will look for the best candidates externally rather than choosing
internally. Good Life Club does not have many people having the required skills to fill the
position of a fitness director. Due to this issue, most applicants will be from other companies
