- You would be presented with a twenty page document which I would need you to summarize into a 1-page synopsis.
- You will be provided with three documents containing descriptions of a business process such as quality management and would need to cut/paste/edit content from the three documents to produce one document that captures the best parts of all three and still fits within a limited number of pages.
- You might be given two or three articles on "how to" do a certain type of business activity, such as business process reengineering or knowledge transfer and to convert the "how to" articles into a "we do" description of the steps and processes a company will use to implement a particular type of activity. You do NOT need to be an expert in business process reengineering, but you do need to be able to read a couple articles about a subject and then write a page or two on how to do it.
