1. We all have a picture of a dream job in our heads.  Some of us might even be lucky enough to be working in their dream job.  What would be the competencies of your dream job as an HR Consultant be?  And how would the organizational goals influence your performance in your dream job?  Or do you think your dream job would not have any competencies – if so, how come?  Explain.

Breaugh and Stake present a model of how the formation of job expectations on the part of an applicant influences their attitudes and behaviours toward an organization and a job (see Figure 6.2, pg 238). Recruitment has become a two-way street.  Why is it important that job seekers develop accurate expectations of what their position/role will be in an organization before accepting employment there?  Has this ever happened to you or someone you know?  What happened and what did you learn?  How will this influence or change your recruitment practices in the future?
