What is Process Essays (Examples)?

A process essay is fundamentally different from other types of academic writing assignments.  In fact, it is closer to technical writing than to other types of academic writing. That is because a process essay describes a process that leads to a specific outcome.  There are two approaches to the process essay.  The first approach is often referred to as a directional process essay and is the simpler of the two approaches; it describes the steps necessary to complete a task.  The second approach to the process essay does more than outline steps, it also analyzes or explains the steps involved in the process.  The wording of your assignment will be important when you are trying to determine which approach to take while writing your process essay.  

The introduction of your process essay needs to accomplish several things.  First, it needs to introduce the process you are going to describe, and give background information about that process, when such information is necessary.  Next, it needs to identify your audience.  Identifying your audience does not require actually saying the targeted audience for your essay, but, if your reader needs a certain educational, technical, or professional background to understand the essay, then the introduction provides a great opportunity for you to provide that material.

The body of the essay involves your actual descriptions of the process.  For simple directional process essays, the body of the essay involves a step-by-step description of each part of the process.  For analytical process essays, in addition to outlining the steps you might explain them to the reader or analyze whether the steps are necessary to the process and make the process more efficient, or should be eliminated or changed in order to maximize efficiency and performance.

Finally, the conclusion of your essay will reiterate what you hope to achieve with the process described in the essay.  If you have analyzed the process and found it lacking, the conclusion may also describe suggestions for further study or review.

Strategic senior staff recruitment and hiring proposal for software companies
The development of a strong business is dependent on a strong sense of the importance of its human capital. To ensure that the human capital associated with the business is well equipped to help maintain innovate and grow a business is dependent on the organization's ability to recruit and hire effective leaders as well as all those involved in the business. Hiring senior staff is essential to developing core leadership within an organization that fulfills the organizations mission and goals and can lead those within the organization to build cohesion and effective internal development. There are arguments within some of these most effective organizations that stress that human capital is the singularly most important factor in growing a successful business as happy employees are more likely than all others to represent the organization well in every external transaction they are involved in no matter how brief that interaction (Yee, Yeung & Cheng, 2008). The software industry is highly competitive and is clearly a high-contact service organization, meaning that staff is frequently in contact with customers and often in very brief episodes.
