THE RIGHT PERSON FOR THE JOB?
HOW TO RECRUIT THE RIGHT PERSON FOR THE JOB?
Put about 100 bricks in some particular order in a closed room with an open
window.
Then send 2 or 3 candidates in the room and close the door.
Leave them alone and come back after 6 hours and then analyze the situation.
If they are counting the bricks ,
Put them in the accounts department.
If they are recounting them..
Put them in auditing.
If they have messed up the whole place with the bricks ,
Put them in engineering.
If they are arranging the bricks in some strange order,
Put them in planning.
If they are throwing the bricks at each other,
Put them in operations.
If they are sleeping,
Put them in security.
If they have broken the bricks into pieces,
Put them in information technology.
If they are sitting idle,
Put them in human resources.
If they say they have tried different combinations, yet not a brick has been
moved ,
Put them in sales.
If they have already left for the day,
Put them in marketing.
If they are staring out of the window,
Put them in strategic planning.
If they are talking to each other and not a single brick has been moved ,
Congratulate them and put them in top management.
And then last but not least,
How do you stack up in the above.??
where do u c yourself ?????

I would probably re arrange the bricks in some strange order but I'm not sure if I would do that or sit idle. That would make me a candidate for planning or human resources, uhmm...Not so sure! Good post though!

Interesting article. This seems a new approach in recruiting workers. not scientific but I think it can be tried.

i can see myself with not a single brick has been moved, so can i just go to the top management? LOL.
it's funny how you manage to make the metaphor. but, how about designer? where are them? what will designer do with the bricks? curious...
