The market leader has improved the #1 HRM offering…again! This edition is about making a good product an outstanding one. Schwind’s current success is attributed to strong, comprehensive coverage of key concepts issues and best practices in the field of HR, without being encyclopedic. The new edition will enhance the practical focus and emphasis on readability through substantive editing and a comprehensive review process. A reduction in the number of chapters in this edition better reflects the market need to address a 14-week course. So, a thorough update including the most current legislation and engaging examples, an increased focus on ethics, a reduced page count and the best media tech resources available (Powerweb, HROnline, premium OLC content), combine to make Schwind the most up-to-date, accessible, and engaging HRM package available to colleges and universities….again!
A lot of it is common sense, but the textbook is verbose and trying your attention span hard. Someone made a career out of creating the numerous charts, diagrams, and models featured here. Hint for future students: no matter what process it is, the last step is always Evaluation of results!
Probably one of my favourite textbooks I’ve come across throughout my university career. The case studies were fun and the book was super informative. Well worth the investment.
This textbook definitely contains all of the information needed to pass the course I used it for, but it is not written with busy, tired university students in mind. This book is verbose, long-winded, and repetitive.
