1. If you were the recruit, how would you set about this job and what would you say in your report?

William Purvis looked across his desk at the company's latest management recruit and said, 'Welcome to Westin Contractors. This is a good company to work for and I hope you settle in and will be very happy here. Everyone working for Westin has to be familiar with our basic tools, so you should start by looking at network analysis.
Here is a small project we have just costed- I have to give the customer some details about schedules, workloads and budgets by the end of the week. I would like a couple of alternative views with your recommendation of the best. Everything you need is available in the office so don't be afraid to ask for help and advice.'
