Prepare the case study $"$Is the Rookie ready" $($PDF here: Is the Rookie Ready $($Main Case$).$pdf Download Is the Rookie Ready $($Main Case$).$pdf$)$ from the course pack.

Focus on the following questions, and prepare their answers in form of an internal memo $($max$.2$ pages$)$:

$1)$ Would you hire Alessandra or should he take a chance on the rookie, Kristen?

$2)$ Do you think Kristen's team members see her still as a peer or as a manager following the promotion?

$3)$ Was Alessandra taking advantage of the situation by charging $$400$ per hour $-$ this is $$830$k per year at a $40$ hour work week? How could Tim negotiate her down?

$4)$ If you were Tim, what would you have said to Hybara Casinos when they called your office?

$5)$ Is there more to this situation? What are some pressures that may not have been explicitly called out in the case?
