Oil Consumption and GDP GDP regression analysis results Table 1 above shows that 94.7% of the 2010 oil demand of selected countries can be explained by the explanatory variable (2010 GDP growth of those countries). The remaining 5.3% of the oil demand in 2010 is unknown and cannot be explained using the linear regression model Oil demand = 1 + (2*GDP) + Residual. Additionally, a $ USD 1,155.71 increase in a country’s GDP will lead to a 1,000 barrel per day increase in that country’s oil demand, assuming all other variables are held fixed. Figure 1.

...Aim and purpose The aim of this unit is to introduce learners to recruitment and the importance of ensuring that the best people are selected to work in organisations. Learners will study selection and recruitment techniques and will set up, and take part in, a selection interview. Unit introduction Recruiting the right people is the key to the success of many organisations. These organisations ensure that the processes and procedures involved in recruitment and selection meet their needs and are legal. In this unit, learners will develop an understanding of the impact of the regulatory framework on the recruitment process. Potential applicants may decide to apply for a post based on the quality of information that they receive. Details of the post will usually be the first communication they have with the organisation. It is important that the organisation makes a good first impression on potential applicants to ensure that they attract sufficient applicants of the right calibre. Learners will develop their knowledge of the types of documentation used in an interview process. A structured and planned selection procedure is crucial to the success of the selection process. The impression a business makes may determine an applicant’s decision to accept an offer of appointment. Staff conducting the interview will also be forming their impressions of the applicant. It is important that interviewers are well organised and prepared. They will need to be familiar with the...
