1. How to Recruit the Right Person For the Job?

Put about 100 bricks in some particular order in a closed room with an open window.
Then send 2 or 3 candidates in the room and close the door.
Leave them alone and come back after 6 hours and then analyze the situation.

If they are counting the bricks.
Put them in the accounts Department.

If they are recounting them..
Put them in auditing....

If they have messed up the whole place with the bricks.
Put them in engineering....

If they are arranging the bricks in some strange order.
Put them in planning....

If they are throwing the bricks at each other.
Put them in operations....

If they are sleeping.
Put them in security....

If they have broken the bricks into pieces.
Put them in information Technology....

If they are sitting idle.
Put them in human resources....

If they say they have tried different combinations, yet not a brick has been moved.
Put them in sales....

If they have already left for the day.
Put them in marketing....

If they are staring out of the window.
Put them on strategic planning....

And then last but not the least,
If they are talking to each other and not a single brick has been moved.
Congratulate them and put them in top management....

2. How the IT Industry Made it?

Once upon a time the government with Ruling Party XYZ... had a vast scrap yard in the middle of a desert. The Ruling Party said... - "Someone might steal the scrap from it at night." So they created a night watchman position and hired a person for the job.

Then the Ruling Party said... - "How does the watchman do his job without instruction?" So they created a Planning Department and hired two people, one person to write the instructions, and one person to do time studies.

Then the Ruling Party said... - "How will we know the night watchman is doing the tasks correctly?"
So they created a Quality Control Department and hired two people. One to do the studies and one to write the reports.

Then the Ruling Party said... - "How are these people going to get paid?"
So they created the following positions, one of a time keeper, and another of a payroll officer, and hired two people.

Then the Ruling Party said... - "Who will be accountable for all of these people?"
So they created an Administrative Section and hired three people - an Administrative Officer, an Assistant Administrative Officer, and a Legal Secretary.

Then the Ruling Party said... - "We have had this command in operation for one year and we are $18,000 over budget, we must cutback overall cost."
So they lay off the night watchman.
