your responsibility becomes to solve the critical situation or problems.

IMPORTANCE TO THE COMPANY:
IMPORTANCE TO THE COMPANY:
After
interacting with company’s marketing head I got to know that they have many
Financial Consultants but not getting the policies up to the expectations level
of the company. Company is really interested in knowing if there is any mistake
or lacking somewhere in process of recruiting and or the criteria they have
fixed for the recruitment. The ultimate purpose of giving me this topic was to
revise its recruitment policy/process.
