Unit 3 application assignment: the hiring process | intro to business | ECPI University

 ****HAS TO BE ON APPLE INC.****

“Good grief. I didn’t realize we needed all this knowledge and these skills and abilities to start and run a business. I thought we could just come up with a good idea and get started,” said Shawn. Sofia answered, “Right. It’s not as simple as we thought. What do you think about working for a company for a year or so while we work on our own business? We could learn a lot more about how a business operates and gain some valuable experience.” “That’s a good idea. We should look at what kind of jobs are available for the company or industry we are researching.”

You, Sofia, and Shawn are ready to go on a fact-finding mission to see what type of positions might be of interest and what companies look for when recruiting new employees.

IMPORTANT: Corporate websites usually have a Careers section, or some similarly named section such as Jobs or Hiring. These sections are sometimes at the top of the web page, but they are usually found at the very bottom of the site.
