Title: Human Resource Management: Week 18

Learn
From my research for HR assignment, I learned that a job preview and field trial is important for a new recruit.

Unlearn
I managed to recruit a new sales executive recently and instructed two of my team members (Sales Executive) to bring him out for 2 day field trial. I told my team members to bring the new recruit to visit different types of Drs in order for him to have a good picture of how the work of a medical sales representative would be.

Relearn
I relearned the importance of this process as this new recruit decided to quit after the 2 days of field trial. Fortunately I managed to conduct this field trial as it would cost the company more if we had provided him with training and he quits six months down the road. I stressed to my team members again on how important this process is and they played a major role in bringing in the right candidate to work for Pfizer.
