Case #2 Quality Compliance at Hawthorne Arms

1. After reviewing the three candidates in Exhibit A. I think that Alistar would have to consider

candidate number one Marie Erthen-Loiseau. This decision was based on three major factors

(Education, Experience, and Availability) for education Ms. Loiseau studied aeronautical

engineering in France and Germany. Has had over thirteen years of experience working for

the Trianon company in two different divisions within France and Germany and has

excellent leadership experience. I feel that hiring someone who understand the company

culture is better off leading projects as Ms. Loiseau pervious projects in the last three years

were deemed as remarkably successful. Lastly, the last major factor was availability.

Because this Quality Compliance Manger position required traveling within the first year, I

felt it was better to choose a candidate whose availability was open. Ms. Loiseau had one

child who was already in college whereas the other candidates had no availability due to

families or lack of experience/ education as a requirement for the position available.

2. Job Requirements, Technical Experience, Cross Cultural Aptitudes, Availability, Language

Skills and Selection Test. – This Process would be best used to help select a candidate

capable of joining the Trianon company. This is because finding out the type of person

needed for the job and its requirements are important especially when hiring for a company.

Having technical experience is a must to even be considered for the position with cross

cultural aptitudes and understanding of the company cultures. Having the Availability to

travel and be away for long period of time is necessary as the position is aboard. Language is

another factor to take into consideration especially if the hired candidate is to be traveling on

business trips and working in other countries. Lastly, Selection tests will help pool those best

suited for the position.

3. I think that the main director of every department within a company should be involved or

present during a strategic decision relating to international business operations such as

finalizing a joint venture agreement. This is because each of these individuals are directly

involved in running a sub-part of the company and each is educated, trained and specialized

in different company involvement processes possessing knowledge that could help in

making a decision that won’t affect or harm its own company.
