The task
1. Conduct an interview with an expatriate.
2. Identify and analyse three international HRM issues for the expatriate.
3. Critically evaluate the three IHRM issues involved with this specific expatriate.
4. Make recommendations as to how the organisation can address issues raised.
5. A Research Report is required.
What are you aiming for?
You will be conducting an exploratory in-depth interview with an expatriate to learn something new about the persons work experience, rather than testing something that is known. In essence, it is a conversation with an individual who can give you information about an organisations international human resource management practices.
Identify and analyse three international HRM areas faced by the expatriate when working in another country. Possible topic areas can be drawn from the prescribed textbook such as the recruitment and selection process, selection criteria, training and development, culture, dual career couples, re-entry/repatriation and career issues. Compensation has not been included as a topic due to privacy and sensitivity issues.
Your participant (expatriate) can be from your workplace, or a friend or family member. They can be either a company-assigned expatriate or a self-initiated expatriate. They can be on a short-term, extended or longer-term assignment; or engaged in non-standard arrangements such as commuter, rotator, or contractual. They can be working in a giant multi-national enterprise (MNE), a small to medium-size enterprises (SME), or in a government entity, regional trade body, or charity.
Your participant must have worked or be working in another country. Participation is on a voluntary basis. It is suggested that you ask someone early and also consider an alternative interviewee should your first choice become unavailable.
This is an exploratory qualitative piece of research. You can use semi-structured questions. Prepare your questions in advance.
The interview should have a clear purpose. The purpose is gaining the perspective of an expatriate explaining HRM principles and practices involved.
The interviewee should know in general what sorts of questions will be asked and the approximate length of the interview. The interview can be conducted face-to-face, or by telephone, Skype or WebEx. It would be useful to provide the questions beforehand so that the participant has some time to develop some planned responses.
Use your prescribed textbook (Dowling, P J, Festing, M & Engle, A D Sr 2013, International Human Resource Management, 6th edn, Cengage Learning, Melbourne) as a beginning framework for the development of the questions and use additional and more recent scholarly theory to help develop your questions. You will draw on the topics of this unit and refer to the literature from the textbook, readings and your own research.
There will need to be justification of your evaluation through deep analysis of the interview data, synthesis of theory, research and good practice presented in your reading materials for this unit and any other scholarly documents you have sourced.
