Exercise 1
Exercise 2
Exercise 1
Imagine it’s your first day with us and our CEO receives an
email from a vendor who wants to meet and present their
services. They mention they have been referred by a
professional contact. You don’t know how close this
contact is to your CEO but you believe your VP of Sales
could meet the vendor in the CEO’s place. However, both
your CEO and your VP of Sales are on a business trip and
not reachable. How would you handle this? Please include
the text of your potential email(s).
What to look for: Here you should check first for diplomacy
and politeness. A competent office manager wouldn’t go
directly to the CEO but they would try to determine who is
the next suitable person to address this issue. Look for
candidates who wouldn’t give out too much information –
like disclosing the fact that both the CEO and the VP of
Sales are away. Candidates should ask the appropriate
questions to help the vendor to the extent they can.
Depending on the vendors’ answers, candidate should
provide correct guidance on how, when and whom to
contact.
Exercise 2
Next Thursday you’re celebrating your company’s 4th
birthday. Your company has a few too many employees to
be able to talk over dinner so people have suggested
drinks and light snacks. Make a suggestion for a place and
time and explain what special preparations you’d make.
