    Default 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 into the room and close the door. Leave them alone and come back after 3 hours and 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 IT.

    * 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 on Strategic Planning.

    * And then last but not least, If they are talking to each other and not a single brick has been moved;
    Congratulate them and put them in Senior Management.

    I resent that :mad: !!!! operators dont throw bricks at each other!... we throw them at the other occupations

    and besides everyone knows you hire the one with the biggest T1Ts
    I try and do new things twice.. the first time to see if I can do it.. the second time to see if I like it

    3) Applicants take a series of small steps towards the wall.
