Boyd Gaming Corporation (NYSE: BYD) is a Paradise, Nevada based business engaged in the development, ownership and operation of hotels and casinos throughout the United States. The company continues to be run by founder Sam Boyd's family under the management of Sam's son, Bill Boyd (born 1931), who currently serves as the company's executive chairman after retiring as CEO in January 2008.

As of 31 December 2009, the 15 wholly owned properties had 7,550 hotel rooms, 812,500 square feet of casino space with 21,400 slot machines and 425 table games. Gaming revenue is 75% of total gross revenue


Strategic selection

A new focus on maintaining core businesses and outsourcing other activities has led to the downsizing of many HR departments, with various recruitment and selection functions contracted out to external vendors. The trend toward integration across business functions presses for a synthesis of recruitment and selection activities. Formerly competing organizations have developed strategic alliances for recruitment and selection in order to increase flexibility and adaptability in hiring and employment. As a result of such changes, the role of the HR professional in recruitment and selection has itself changed dramatically (Zwell 2000). Strategic selection was done by PCCW using interactive means wherein this writer engaged in interviews with the members of the organization. The hr team of the company gave various types of questions to all applicants and each was given considerable time to provide answer to the questions. The hr team made sure that there was minimal pressure given to the applicants. The questions of the HR team of PCCW focused on gaining the applicant’s background particularly on the educational achievements, the former employers, the birthplace of the applicant and other personal information. The questions of the HR team of PCCW were focused on determining the work ethic of the applicants, how the applicants deal with all kinds of people in the organization, how does the applicant survive a stressful event and how the applicants handle various situations in the company. The hr team adjusted to every type of answer given by the applicant particularly on how they responded to a situation that happened in the old job.

Jon analysis:
The procedure for determining the duties and skill requirements of a job and the kind of person who should be hired for it is called Job analysis. Job analysis is very important as job analysis information is used in Selecting and recruiting, compensation, performance evaluation, training and in resolving other issues which NIB Bank faces. The methods which are used in collecting current job analysis information are
 The interview
 Questionnaires
a) The Interview for job analysis:
Interview is a big source in collecting information in the job analysis. Individual employees, group of employees and supervisors with vast knowledge about jobs are interviewed. The format of interview is Structured and unstructured.
