This will automatically return whatever is passed. When you use the return keyword you emediatly exit out of the function. 

function returnValue(newJob)
{ 
  return newJob;
}
var echo = returnValue("Data anylst");

If you are wanting the echo value to be "Data Anylst" you should add quotes and it will be returned as the word.
