Due to the fact that Samsung sell such a wide variety of products I will be narrowing it down to their Mobile Phones department in order to make sure focus can be kept on one particular area. There are two main types of business information, internal and external.

The disadvantages of verbal information is that the person getting interviewed wont be confident and things may go wrong, also another disadvantage is that the interview can go on for a long time depending on the interviewee and his background. You can pass over verbal information through internal sources such as face to face interviews and can pass over verbal information through external sources such as focus groups. The purpose of verbal information is that when employing new employees they can expand as a business. Also there will be more jobs available for other people that want to work...
