D2: Write a self evaluation of your performance as interviewer/interviewee. You may want to consider what you did well and what you did not do so well and what improvements could be made for future interviews. Evaluate your experience of the recruitment planning process. I had to participate in a selection interview, which I performed as an interviewer. There were many aspects where I thought I did well such as introducing myself to the interviewee. The tone was appropriate and I introduced myself to the interviewee by shaking hands. I also thought my body language was appropriate throughout the interview; I made sure I listened well and always made eye contact. Another aspect I though went well was the questions. I asked the interviewee if there was a time when he performed well dealing with a customer request. The interviewee answered 'yes', a customer wanted a shoe which was not in stock at that moment. I probed the answer well by asking if the interviewee found them and they did by ordering them from another store. Although there were positives within the interview there also were elements that did not go so well or could have been improved. Such as when questioning the interviewee I should have included some closed questions where the interviewee could only answer yes or no. The interviewer is likely to use closed questions; at the start of the interview when
Business Operations Strategies and Supply Chain Management.
Business Operations Strategies Cost Leadership- Cost Leadership is a way of getting a competitive advantage by finding the most efficient way of manufacturing the good or delivering the service in the industry. A cost leadership strategy is where a business aims to be the lowest cost manufacturer within its industry. Low costs can be achieved through economies of scale in production and distribution, access to cheaper raw materials or inventing an innovative way of producing a product. Visibility- Operations can be influenced with something such as what they can see from the operations in action. Service based businesses will have a higher based level of visibility, while customers will rarely see the operations process of a manufacturing based business. The implications for operations of a highly visible operations process are that the quality of labour will be significant. Operations will generally need to have well trained, highly skilled, adaptable staff that are able and willing to deal with the individual needs of customers. A close relationship with human resource will be essential. Speed is also a crucial factor in operations as customers usually have a much lower tolerance for waiting. Short time lags are important in operations between the customer ordering and the delivery. Otherwise the customer may get sick of waiting and move onto a competitor. Overheard

It is the purpose of [the HR department] of an organisation to produce profit, not good HRM', Redman and Wilkinson (2001). Analyse and debate this question with regard to the relationship between HR strategy and business strategy. Introduction Organisations are as good as their people. The need to maximise the potential of the organisation and their workforce through intelligent people management and organisational development is a task carried out by the HR department.

The purpose of this subject is to provide an understanding of the relevance of HR strategy that supports the business strategy to the function of [HR department] an organisation. The impact of human resource management (HRM) on organisational performance has emerged as a dominant research issue in the HRM field and is generating great interest for both academics and practitioners (Wright, McCormick, Sherman & McMahan, 1999). Human Resource Management The overall purpose of HRM is to help organisations achieve their objectives which are essentially seen in terms of performance through its people. 'HRM systems can be the source of organizational capabilities that allow firms to learn and capitalize on new opportunities'. Ulrich and Lake (1990)

Developing Teams in Business In this task I will be describing different types of teams and the benefits of teamwork for an organisation; I will be investigating two businesses the first being Waitrose and the second being Apple. What are teams? A team is a collection of people with a shared responsibility and a commitment to work together. For example, a football team, a group effort is needed for the team to win, without the group effort the team would fail, this shows where all the people involved are equal and have the same skills.it is vital to develop a team understanding in order to achieve effective teamwork. Some other examples of teams are: builders, fire fighters etc. Different types of teams need to possess different types of qualities and skills depending on their responsibilities. Apple has a formal team, it has a leader who delegates task, the leader is higher ranked therefore it is a formal team. Apple's team would be a permanent team as they would have set researchers and designers however developers would be temporary as they would just need to develop and create the product, within this group designers and researchers would also be present as their input is vital. Waitrose also formal team as they have different levels of authority, from the store manager to cashier. The Waitrose teams would be permanent as they all have day-to-day roles to carry out.
Interview Evaluation
Task 6: Evaluation I will know evaluate the recruitment and selection process. To do this, I will be looking at the positives the negatives things that happened during this process. By evaluating the recruitment and selection process it will give overall feedback and I will give me ways in which I could improve if I were to do it again. The good things about the recruitment process were the recruitment documents produced; the job description, person specification and job advert. The documents contained most of the key information that is required for the candidate to know about the job. For example in the job description, it outlines the main duties the candidates would have to carry out for example if they were appointed they would have to teach the lesson, set homework and monitor the student's progress. It also contained motivation factors such as money and fringe benefit so the candidate would be attracted to it which meant that they're more likely to apply. As well as motivational factors it also contained training which another reason that encourages the candidate to apply was. The job description contains the Greenford High School logo in the header which made it look more professional and a list of the companies they're associated with such as Healthy School which again made the school look more professional. In the person specification, it contains a list of
