Hi,
I liked points like essntial & secondary job function,management responsibility. Job Description & Job specification are 2 parts of Job analysis. Qualifications will come under Job specification. Job specification is about skills required. I did not liked your title. Your article do not contain any questions. Thats why Questionnaire word should not be used.

It is a very comprehensive questionnaire. One of our members have commented that it does not have any questions , so dont call it a questionnaire. I think we must know that all questions do not have to end with a question mark .
Good work and thank you .
