Recruitment of a Star

In the event that you were Stephen Conner, who would you contract, and why?

There were four hopefuls for the Semiconductor position offered by Stephen Conner. They are David Hughes, Seth Horkum, Sonia Meetha and Gerald Baum. Of the four my choice would be Seth Horkum. He displayed quite a few positive attributes, which made him my first choice, for example, he had related knowledge with the Power chip organization, while employed at RSH), he displayed loyalty to a firm by staying 15 years at Jefferson Siblings, which permits reliance and dedication. Seth displayed more attributes and intelligence in the meeting, which gave him the best fitting edge for the position.

What issues does Stephen Conner face?
Stephen had an essential position to fill. He required a star senior individual to supplant Peter. Divided from that, he was facing a significant measure of concerns from the senior authorities of the affiliation. Since time was the key component in light of the way that it was the time when they required a senior agent regardless the new client (Power chip Organization). His substitution decision of making Rina who was a lesser associate to subside and joined the affiliation concerned the senior official 's and in addition himself.

What should Peter’s substitution look like, and which of the hopeful’s best fits this depiction?

Peter was amazingly vigilant and his experimental aptitudes were overwhelming. So if one needs to supplant Peter they must be of the same spirit, and intelligence. His needs were time organization, resource organization and competency at work. So to find the best substitution, for a person who is constantly achieving; there must be a substitute with the relative capacity set and mindset. So this places, Sonia and Seth as the best fit for now on the grounds that

Sonia is the applicant with both deals and specialized abilities.

    The exercise was designed so that everyone is assigned to an executive position in PB Technologies. Then, everyone has to choose his or her candidate individually before we attend the executives meeting to come up with a single candidate. My position in the organization was the VP of Marketing. Once I received the exercise’s handout, I read it carefully, compared the three candidates’ resumes and then decided to nominate Suzanne T. Valdes for the Senior VP of Finance and CFO position. I based my decision on the fact that she has the most related work experience and personality to the position, EMBA and she is an insider, which I believe is a very important quality for that position.…

    After reviewing all four candidates I narrowed it down to two. Being a human resource manager I have guidelines to follow on who would be the best option for the sales manager position. I need someone who is articulate, sophisticated, and knowledgeable about fiber optics. The position calls for traveling Monday through Friday and spending time after 5:00 with prospective clients. The first candidate I have in mind is Lynn, the IT manager and the reason why I chose her is because she is smart and sophisticated because she was first in her graduating class. Lynn has fiber optics experience, and doesn’t list anything special in her life that would keep her from being able to work the full hours for the position. The second person I have in mind is Jyoti, Manager of Wireless Retail Store. I am considering Jyoti because she is great in sales, and has high stats and tons of experience for this position. She also states that she is single and has a ton of free time to be able to do the traveling and staying later.…

    The Wild Children

    • 668 Words
    • 3 Pages

    Peter is the leader of Jacob the Baker’s band. Who sought refuge and food not only for himself but also for the rest of the wild children whom he considered his family. His leadership over his band reflects the authority that is shown by a father over his family. An authority of love, concern, and discipline yet with rules and laws to follow in order to maintain equality within. “Peter’s rules demanded...to perform bodily functions” (Holman46) in order for them to keep peace and camaraderie within. He made sets of laws to divide among the children in order to function and survive as a band, just like a family. Although his character is focused on being a father figure over the band, he does not only show compassion over his band but also towards the other wild children he does not even know. He refused the chance to escape Russia but instead came “back for the others in the family” (148). Peter came back not because he needed to but rather because he knew what it is like to be left in the midst of a hopeless society. He sought opportunity to serve other children like him and because he also felt the band the wild children all shared together-…

    Stephen acknowledged the fact that Peter’s presence was important for the bank, especially for the upcoming PowerChip deal and hence he decided to talk to Peter about his reasons for leaving the firm. Peter, on the other hand, kept giving unreasonable explanations of why he wanted to quit, probably in the expectation of a counteroffer from Stephen which will increase his compensation. At first he said that he wanted to leave because there are more salespeople to market his products in the new…
