Assessment Centre - Fun Lesson on Recruitment - People in Business Group Task - GCSE

A nice fun group work lesson that helps cover recruitment. This lessons helps turn your classroom into an assessment centre. The lesson will put students into a candidates shoes, where they will be expected to complete numerous tasks before an overall candidate is given the key job (the best student on the day). The lesson first looks at the theory of the different ways candidates can be tested. Students will the have to complete an aptitude test (I have included 2, choose which one you want to use). You then start the group task - this is done to see which team works the best and who creates the biggest straw tower. Resources will obviously need to provided by the teacher.

The teacher then fills in the grading sheet and announces which candidiate(s) have impressed the most and gets the job. A nice fun lesson that works really well straight after teaching the recruitment process. Perfect for engaging GCSE Business Studies students.
