Why is it important for a cooperation to create collaboration between the two sectors of a company?

Using the template provided in DocSharing (using this form is required), create a list of ten (10) structured interview questions and submit it to your Dropbox by the end of Week 5 using the following guidelines:

• Your original questions (e.g. written by you) should only contain legally allowable, job related inquiries. Act as if the organization you are working for is obligated under Title VII and the other major, federal employment laws when writing these questions.
• A brief rationale for each question must be included (e.g. why this question is important; what type of information you are hoping to elicit from the candidate with the question).
• Students are encouraged to include behavioral interview questions.
• You should not provide a sample answer for each question: only the question and rationale are needed.
• Include the position title and compose a brief (3 to 5 sentences) description of the job for which the questions relate.
• Please note that questions typically found on an application form (e.g. "Are you at least 18 years or older," "Are you legally authorized to work in this country,") are NOT interview questions and should not be used.
• Create questions that you think would especially support identifying the KSAs of the candidates for this position. Think about what the KSAs would be for the job you selected, as well as some of the duties that come to mind.
• Example: For a computer repair technician questions might include “Describe for me the process you use to troubleshoot XYZ…” (hard skill question. “Tell me how you’ve handled a customer that was hovering over you while working on their computer” (soft skill question).
• Consider both “hard skills” questions (that focus on the more “technical” aspects of the job) and “soft skills” questions. It is usually good to have a combination of both for a well-rounded, comprehensive interview. And remember to keep all questions focused on the KSAs of the position.
• DO NOT submit any “generic” questions (e.g. “What are your work strengths?” “Where do you see your career in five years?” “What can you bring to our company?” “Why did you choose XYZ as a career?”).
• Avoid closed-ended questions (e.g. questions that can be answered with a yes/no answer such as “Are you a team player?”)
• All questions, rationale data, and position description MUST be written by you. This assignment is not about finding information online or at another source (even if properly cited). Also, to avoid possible academic integrity issues, your questions for this assignment should be created from scratch solely by you. Use of interviewing questions previously utilized (such as at your work) should be avoided as the exact origin of the questions may be unknown.

When deciding whether to go global, companies have to look at possible risks. Is there an example of a company that took a risk by entering a market and ended up benefitting greatly from it?

Research an article where a stakeholder challenged the status quo of an organization that eventually led to major changes in the social responsibility of the organization. Place close emphasis on the sources of values created that transpired in the article that you researched.

Alan is a trained and licensed plumber. He carelessly installed a steam heater in Bob’s restaurant, and, as a result, Bob was seriously burned when a heater pipe exploded. Claire is a qualified medical doctor who treated Bob at the hospital. She prescribed an incorrect medication as treatment for the burn, which made Bob’s injury worse. Bob had to undergo an expensive and painful skin graft operation to correct his condition.

a) Discuss Alan’s responsibility to Bob (3 points)

b) Claire’s responsibility to Bob (3 points)

1. An eyeglass retailer buys lenses from a supplier at $100 each. The retailer orders 250 lens pairs every year and the ordering cost is $36 for each pair. Carrying costs per year (based on average inventory) are estimated to be 20 percent for each pair. The supplier offers a 10 percent on order quantities of 50 or more lens pairs. Determine the best order quantity and total cost.
2. An electronic store sells 3,000 HD TV sets every quarter of the year. Each TV set costs the store $ 270.00. The carrying cost is set at 2% of the purchase price per unit per year. Each time an order is placed it costs the store $ 120.00 The supplier charges $10 for delivery of each order. Calculate:

a. Optimal order quantity

                                b. Number of orders per year

c. The supplier is willing to give a discount of 3% on the price of each set if the manager of the store orders 3,000 sets at a time. Should the manager accept the offer?
