Does your Company have a problem in recruiting the right person for the right Job? 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 and come back after 6 hours, and then analyse the situation:

If they are counting and recounting the number of 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 THE MATERIALS DEPT.

If they are clinging onto 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 STRATEGIC PLANNING
AND last but not least….

If they are talking to each other and not a single brick has been moved
- PUT THEM IN TOP MANAGEMENT.
