A national retailer is growing to the point where they have decided it would be wise to have some regional meetings a few times a year with their store managers, and perhaps even a national meeting that all store managers would attend. With $500$ stores and counting, this would mean a lot of people in attendance. They$$d need to look at hotels or convention centers to provide space. They would raise funds from the company$$s vendors to pay for the event.

As the manager of the operations department, Litong has decided that an event manager would be an excellent addition to the operations team and has approached the company$$s human resources department to get started.

You, as a human resources professional, should perform a job analysis on event managers $($code $13-1121\mathrm{.}00)$ using O$*$Net Online and the O$*$Net Resource Center Links to an external site.

Part II$-$Recruitment and Selection

A candidate can have every skill you are looking for in a position, and yet still might not be successful at the job. Bringing a new employee into the organization means matching skills to job requirements and matching personalities to workplace culture.

Your HR team has worked hard to build a culture that supports the company$$s brand and goals. The organization prides itself on open$-$door discussions between leaders and subordinates; they provide flexible hours and telecommuting; they$$ve established core values and $$work lingo$$ that support their employment brand. Your employee value proposition boasts that working for your company is like having a second family.

You$$re an HR manager working with a recruiter to bring a new executive on board in the finance department. As a new leader, this executive will be driving workplace culture as much as he or she will be blending in with it$.$

What type of interview questions would you ask candidates to ensure that they are a good fit for the company culturally? And what answers to those questions would prompt you to make the candidate an offer of employment? Write four or five questions and their $$correct$$ answers to submit.
