Abstract

According to (Bayt.com, 2015); the largest recruitment site in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), A percentage of (14%) of Jordanian employees are very satisfied with their work, (25%) are somewhat satisfied, and (33%) are a bit dissatisfied, while (28%) are very dissatisfied with their work. Meanwhile, because the economic status in Jordan is critical, and the cost of living is very high, decision makers and managers of Jordanian organisations have to pay their full attention in making their employees their most valuable asset. While they have to focus on developing workers’ diverse skills and realise these skills by enrolling employees in training courses that meet their interests and needs. In addition, In Jordan, HRM has not received big attention yet. To address some of the common practices occurs by HR department in organisations of Jordan. (Bhatia 2016) mentioned that no opportunity is given to an employee to express his / her development needs. Unplanned employee development exists because training manager nominates employees with no formal procedure to fillin training requirements and analytical skills and capabilities gaps. All this leads to, money and efforts waste. This article explains the use of exploratory factor analysis in extracting factors of Human Resource Management Constructs (Motivation, Training and Development, Working Conditions, Performance Appraisal) and the factors of Job Satisfaction Construct. The quantitative study collected information on the participants’ perceptions towards multimodal forms in digital contents as well as uncover their opinions on why they want to access and use digital content.
