Default a lesson in recruiting

Does your company have a problem in recruiting the right guy for the right chair? If yes, try this simple experiment. Put around 100 bricks in some particular order in a closed room with an open window. Then send 2-3 candidates into the room and close it from outside. Leave them alone, come back after 6 hours and then analyze the situation:-

If they are counting and recounting the bricks

-Put them in Accounts Dept.

If they have messed up the whole place with the bricks

-Put them in Engineering.

If they are arranging the bricks in some other 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 Resource Dept .

If they have thrown the bricks out of the window

-Put them in Materials Dept.

If they are clinging on to the bricks

-Put them in Treasury .

If they say they have tried different combinations, yet not a brick has 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 the Export .

And last but not the least...

If they are talking to each other and not a brick has been moved

-Put them in Top Management !!!
