Your old roommate from college was recently let go from his firm during a wave of employee terminations to reduce costs. You two have kept in touch over the six years since school, and he has asked you to help him get a position in the IT organization where you work. You offered to review his résumé, make sure that it gets to the "right person," and even put in a good word for him. However, as you read the résumé, it is obvious that your friend has greatly exaggerated his accomplishments at his former place of work and even added some IT-related certifications you are sure he never earned. What would you do?
You are the HR consultant to a small business with about 40 employees. At the present time, the firm offers only five days vacation, five paid holidays, and legally mandated benefits such as unemployment insurance payment. Develop a list of other benefits you believe they should offer, along with your reasons for suggesting them.
Suppose you are HR Manager and have conducted interviews for different positions at COMSATS University Islamabad. Compose a bad-news letter to be sent to applicants who have been rejected. Your letter should start with a thank you note for applying, followed by the reasons for not selecting the candidate. It should conclude with a positive note of contacting the candidate whenever the services are required.

You have been told by your manager that, before you go on leave, you must complete some complicated settlement work. The deadline suggested appears unrealistic, given the complexity of the work. You feel that you are not sufficiently experienced to complete the work alone. You would need additional supervision to complete it to the required standard, and your manager appears unable to offer the necessary support. If you try to complete the work within the proposed timeframe but fail to meet the expected quality, you could face consequences on your return from study leave. You feel slightly intimidated by your manager, and also feel pressure to do what you can for the organization in what are challenging times. While looking at this scenario, explain whether any precepts of common morality help or create a hurdle in…arrow_forwardMake sure your responses are in complete sentences and have been proofread before submitting. After a student graduated from Berkeley College, the student went on six different interviews. The student patiently waited back to see if he/she received any offers. Thankfully, the student received the two offers below: • Job Offer # 1: Starting annual salary of $74,000 with an annual raise of $3,500. • Job Offer # 2: Starting annual salary of $66,000 with an annual raise of $4,200. 1. The student needs help on deciding what job opportunity to take. What advice would you offer to the student? 2. Write an equation describing each job offer. 3. What strategy would you use to determine which job offer might be best for the student? 4. The student is curious to find out after how much time would she make the same amount money.

The Manager is in need of a student assistant for clerical and other administrative tasks, and you are interested in applying.

You have encountered several managers who want to delete certain tasks and KSAOs from the formal job description that deals with employee safety, even though they are clearly job requirements. How should you handle this situation?arrow_forwardYou are a trainee accountant in your second year of training within a small practice. A more senior trainee has been on sick leave, and you are due to go on study leave. You have been told by your manager that, before you go on leave, you must complete some complicated reconciliation work. The deadline suggested appears unrealistic, given the complexity of the work. You feel that you are not sufficiently experienced to complete the work alone. You would need additional supervision to complete it to the required standard, and your manager appears unable to offer the necessary support. If you try to complete the work within the proposed timeframe but fail to meet the expected quality, you could face repercussions on your return from study leave. You feel slightly intimidated by your manager, and also feel pressure to do what you can for the practice in what are challenging times. Question: Professional competence and due care Is it possible to complete the work within the time available…arrow_forwardSuppose you are a hiring manager for a large firm. You have two almost identical resumes for a position. The going rate (salary) for the position is $45,000. The job candidates are both graduates from a state university, same major, about the same age, and same gender (race unknown). The academic background is roughly the same. But one is a good candidate (personality, easy going, a “go-getter”, worth $50,000) but the other is the opposite (worth $40,000). The issue is that you can’t tell them apart from the submitted application dossier documents. Questions: What is the role of asymmetric information in this market? Fully explain this concept as it applies to labor markets. What are the chances of getting the “good” candidate if you offer $40,000? Devise 1 screen and 1 signal (for either the employer or/and the employee) that would allow you to hire the best person in this case.arrow_forward
