    Hi, sinath!

    A job description would give the details about what someone would do in a job.

    A job analysis might involve how well someone has done their job according to following that which is outlined the in job description. Although, that could vary depending on why a job is being analyzed.

    Why are you asking the question, please?

    Thanks!
