...Carl Robins and ABC Inc. Carl Robbins is the new campus recruiter for ABC, Inc. After being on the job for six months Carl recruited several new hires. Carl Robbins was given a big assignment by the Operations Supervisor, Monica Carrolls to schedule a new hire orientation on June 15; with intentions to have them all working by July. Carl gave Monica his word that everything would be taken care of in time. At the time Carl did not realize everything that was involved to proceed and get the job completed. It is obvious that Carl Robbins was not properly trained on how to proceed in the endeavor, thus he encountered some problems that prevented him from doing a good job. He panicked, and was trying to figure out what he was going to do about this, but instead of panicking he should have started thinking of ways to resolve the problem as quickly as possible. One of the things he could have done was to have called Monica right away to let her know of his dilemma. He should have asked for her help to get back on track so that he could get the assignment completed in a timely fashion. Monica Carrolls should have given Carl Robbins some specific guidelines to follow since he had only been working for ABC Inc. for six months; and this was his first time setting up a training session. Precautions should have been taken to ensure that the process would have worked more smoothly and that these situations do not occur in the future. Carl Robbins should have been provided training...

Introduction The following is a case study analysis of the orientation and hiring processes at ABC, Inc. The new campus recruiter for ABC, Inc., Carl Robbins, was unable to plan, organize, and execute the employee orientation necessary for the 15 new trainees that were to begin working for Monica Carolls in July. Some of the problems that arose for Carl were due to poor communication and lack of attention to detail. There was also poor management skills involved.

There also seems to be a lack of guidance and support for new hires that may be needed during the first few months of employment.

Given that the ABC campus recruiter, Carl Robbins, had six months of experience and was developing difficulties with the pre-planning for his new hire orientation, I conclude that the company ABC needs to provide better training to personnel, improve conference room reservation procedures, and provide a checklist to recruiters for new hire packets.

He has only been working for ABC, Inc. for six months, and this was his first recruitment mission.

...crucial. In the case of Carl Robbins, it is important that he fixes the problems so that the hiring Orientation can happen on time or as soon as possible and with all the paperwork complete. If he does not fix the problems, this can make him look irresponsible and keep the people being hired waiting longer to get started. This case study analysis will explore ways this individual can correct a major time management issue. Carl Robbins has barely been at ABC, Inc. for six months but has a big task on hand. Mr. Robbins is in charge of putting together a hiring Orientation and has a date set and a time he wants the hirees to be starting work. There is plenty of time between when he recruited the hirees to the Orientation date for him to prepare. He has been asked about how the preparation is going by his superior and claims everything is in order. When the deadline is only two weeks away, that is when Carl starts checking applications and gets worried. Mr. Robbins notices some problems that can make the Orientation almost impossible to have by date they set and it is because he did not start by even looking at the applications he took from the hirees. If the Orientation has to be rescheduled, it shows people that he is had not prepared himself how he was supposed to. He ends up having issues that he would not have had if he started preparing sooner. He has only been on the job for six months, so if he messes this up he may not have another chance to fix it.

...Case Study for Student Analysis By Comm 215 Instructor: Introduction Carl Robbins is a new campus recruiter for ABC, Inc. Carl has been at his new job for only six months. This is the first time that he has run a recruitment effort. He was very successful and recruited 15 new employees in early April. The purpose of this analysis is to determine what issues could be improved and create an easier process for the new hire orientation. Background The research suggests that the main issue taking place is a lack of proper planning. There were many aspects of preparation process for the orientation that were overlooked or the amount of time required to completing the tasks was unknown or ignored. It would also appear that the fact that Mr. Robbins is new in his position as recruiter. His lack of “real world” experience could have caused him to under-estimate the amount of time that is required to prepare for orientation. Another issue that this analysis discovered is that Mr. Robbins was not aware of what condition his orientation manuals and that many were missing pages. This also caused Mr. Robbins added stress because he had to take time, which he didn’t have, to locate the missing pages and create new pages to be included in the manuals. Lack of experience and improper planning appears to be the main issues in this case. Key Problems There are some key issues that this case analysis will focus on. A large portion of the problem is a lack of experience...
