Righteous Resume
The Bible says, “Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen
you twelve, and one of you is a devil? He spake of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for he it was that should betray
him, being one of the twelve.” John 6:70-71 (KJV)

Dear Sir:
Thank you for submitting the resumes of the twelve men you have picked for managerial positions in your new organization.
All of them have now taken our battery of tests; and we have not only run the results through our computer but also arranged
personal interviews for each of them with our psychologist and vocational aptitude consultant.
The profiles
of all tests are included, and you will want to study each of them carefully.
As part of our service, we
make some general comments for your guidance much as an auditor will include some general statements. This is given as a result
of staff consultation and comes without any additional fee.
It is the staff’s opinion that most of your nominees
are lacking in background, education and vocational aptitude for the type of enterprise you are undertaking. They do not have
the team concept. We would recommend that you continue your search for persons of experience in managerial ability and proven
capability.
Simon Peter is emotionally unstable and given to fits of temper. Andrew has absolutely no qualities
of leadership. The two brothers, James and John, the sons of Zebedee, place personal interest above company loyalty. Thomas
demonstrates a questioning attitude that would tend to undermine morale. We feel that it is our duty to tell you that Matthew
had been blacklisted by the Greater Jerusalem Better Business Bureau; James, the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus definitely
have radical leanings, and they both registered a high score on the manic-depressive scale.
One of the
candidates, however, shows great potential. He is a man of ability and resourcefulness, meets people well, has a keen business
mind, and has contacts in high places. He is highly motivated, ambitious, and responsible. We recommend Judas Iscariot as
your controller and right-hand man. All of the other profiles are self-explanatory.
We wish you every
success in your new venture.
Sincerely,
Jordan Management Consultants
