Put about 100 bricks in some Particular order in a closed Room with an Open window. Then send 2 or 3 candidates into the room and close the door. Leave them alone and come back After 6 hours and then analyse The situation.
If they:
- Are Counting the Bricks – put them in the Accounts Department
- Are Recounting them – put them in Auditing
- Have messed up the whole place with the bricks – put them in Engineering
- Are arranging the Bricks in some strange order – put them in Planning
- Are throwing the Bricks at each other – put them in Operations
- Are sleeping – put them in Security
- Have broken the bricks Into pieces – put them in Information Technology
- Are sitting idle – Put them in Human Resources
- Say they have tried different combinations, yet not a brick has Been moved – put them in Sales.
- Have already left for the day – Put them in Marketing
- Are staring out of the window – Put them on Strategic Planning
- Are playing cricket with wickets made of bricks – put them in Help Desk
And then last but not least:
If they are talking to each 0ther and not a single brick has been moved – Congratulate them and put them in Top Management.
