Scenario 11-1

The test was to see whether the job applicant was suited to carrying out the chain's mission: "To make people's day." This type of pre-employment assessment is not unusual. Gourmet grocery chain Central Market uses a four-page application form, which includes essay questions such as "Tell us about your favourite food experience."
