A number of us at pan are active in IPAC--the International Personnel Assessment Council. In addition to sponsoring an annual conference and supporting a newsletter and listserve, IPAC also sponsors webinars on topics related to selection and assessment. Julia Bayless, IPAC’s President Elect and Director of Talent Development at Sodexo, recently gave a great presentation on job analysis. She did a particularly nice job of covering both the conceptual issues involved in job analysis as well as the practicalities and challenges often associated with actually getting one done in the field.  For a limited time, both a recording of the presentation and the slides are available to the public.
