Recently, human resources (HR) recruiters have utilized their company Web site job board, online job boards, social media, and other industry-specific job boards or Web sites to fill all types of positions. As an HR recruiter, you are in need of new employees for a forecasted expansion to a call center that is opening up in 2 months and that is just 20 miles away. Think creatively and find some new, unique, and innovative ways to find candidates. Research and address the following:
Discuss 2 new technology options that the company could use to find candidates.
Would you use these new options to also locate new managers for the new location? Why or why not?
Have you found statistical evidence of the new options for finding qualified candidates?
Do you feel like these new options are trends? Why or why not?

What are the individual and social implications of this problem? Discussion of implications should be supported by accurate research data.
What do the experts say about the problem?
What have we, as a society, done about this problem? Consider public policies and other, less formal responses.
How are public policies and other, less formal responses working?
Describe an alternative solution to the problem.
Discuss why the alternative is, or can be, an effective response to the problem. Remember to consider negative consequences of the alternative response.

For example, your problem could be drug use/abuse, with a focus on prescription drug abuse among teenagers. Your description of the problems should be fact based, relying on expert opinion. Your alternative can be an adjustment of current policy or a new direction. For example, you may propose longer prison sentences, or legalization of all drugs. Be creative, although suggestions must be supported by scholarly research.

Assessment Information
This assignment is designed to assess the learning outcome:
Conduct a critical review of academic literature surrounding a branding topic and present their findings.
Halcyon Days: Expanding the brand’s geographic coverage
Halcyon Days was founded in 1950 as an emporium of antique gifts in Mayfair, London. Today the company has evolved into a strong lifestyle brand, and they continue to create the signature enamel pieces on which their business was founded. They have added in full collections of luxury goods and fashion accessories. Their current product range includes: bangles, tea ware, silk shawls, scented candles, cufflinks and cashmere throws.
They continue to produce hand-crafted signature enamel boxes in their own workshops located in the heart of England. Made by a team of highly skilled artists – using traditional English enamelling techniques handed down through generations – they continue to demonstrate the very best of British craftsmanship. The company’s craftsmen and artists take great pride in delivering luxury products of the highest standard such as hand-decorated enamel bangles.
Halcyon Days are proud to be one of only fourteen companies to hold all three Royal Warrants. This important relationship sets the high standard of UK craftsmanship and design; which Halcyon Days is dedicated to maintain.
The United Kingdom, the United States of America and Japan are three of the strongest markets for Halcyon Days. Their key global accounts are Harrods and Harrods International, Fortnum & Mason, Scully & Scully in New York, Gumps in San Francisco and Isetan-Mitsukoshi in Tokyo.
They are also represented in Canada, Italy, Switzerland, Russia, Singapore, Bermuda and the Caribbean, and they look forward to continued growth and development in other territories across the globe, which is where they would like your branding expertise.
In addition to their craft pieces the company also produces private (bespoke) commissions. For example, the Late Queen Mother commissioned a box depicting her London home, Clarence House. In 1976, Cartier in New York commissioned Halcyon Days to create an enamel box for President Ford to give to The Queen on her official visit to the USA. Coincidentally, she too gifted a Halcyon Days enamel box to the President.
Halcyon Days offers an exceptional service for customers wishing to create their own exclusive piece, whether a hand-painted enamel box or a spectacular freehand-painted porcelain bowl with a unique design. Combining superb craftsmanship and service, Halcyon Days continues to produce bespoke pieces for private clients, and limited editions to commemorate momentous events and partnerships.

GUIDELINES AND BACKGROUND TO THIS ASSIGNMENT
Plagiarism
As part of your study you will be involved in carrying out research and using this when writing up your coursework. It is important that you correctly acknowledge someone else’s writing, thoughts or ideas and that you do not attempt to pass this off as your own work. Doing so is known as plagiarism. It is not acceptable to copy from another source without acknowledging that it is someone else’s writing or thinking. This includes using paraphrasing as well as direct quotations. You are expected to correctly cite and reference the works of others. The Centre for Academic Writing provides documents to help you get this right. If you are unsure, please visit www.coventry.ac.uk/caw. You can also check your understanding of academic conduct by completing the Good Academic Practice quiz available on Moodle.
Moodle includes a plagiarism detection system and assessors are experienced enough to recognise plagiarism when it occurs. Copying another student’s work, using previous work of your own or copying large sections from a book or the internet are examples of plagiarism and carry serious consequences. Please familiarise yourself with the CU Harvard Reference Style (on Moodle) and use it correctly to avoid a case of plagiarism or cheating being brought. Again, if you are unsure, please contact the Centre for Academic Writing, your Academic Personal Tutor or a member of the course team.
Return of Marked Work
You can expect to have marked work returned to you on 3rd April 2017. If for any reason there is a delay you will be kept informed. Marks and feedback will be provided online. As always, marks will have been internally moderated only, and will therefore be provisional; your mark will be formally agreed later in the year once the external examiner has completed his / her review.

Assignment Support – Halcyon Days: Expanding the brand’s geographic coverage
This assignment is an individual assignment.This assignment requires you to:
Write an individual report – please note no executive summary is required.
Halcyon Days has approached you to work with them as an external branding consultant. The company sells its products online worldwide and through concessions with luxury retailers.
They would like to employ your services as a branding expert to propose a branding strategy to support opening their first store outside the UK.
Focusing on one market of your choice, outside of the UK, address the following three questions. Questions carry equal marks. You are required to:
1. Analyse branding strategies over geographic boundaries to identify which approach in your view Halcyon Days should use to enter your chosen country. Provide recommendations on the brand strategy to support expansion and justify why you have proposed a particular approach.
This should be the longest part of your assignment – maybe 1200 words and include references to the literature or potentially a literature review. Based on a brief overview of your target market considerations could include the following:
• Which approach are you going to use and why – Local, foreign or global? Potentially refer to Steenkamp. Identify what you are going to standardize and adapt – think about the product as a luxury brand and also the target market.
• Are you using the country of origin effect? Why and how? Or why not? If so how will you use it?
• What brand personality are you using and why? Potentially look at Aaker and Millward Brown. Your choice here will inform your choice of brand elements for section three
• If you have space / words are you going to include brand extensions – if so why and how are they relevant to the brand and the target country?
2. Build a branding approach using the CBBE model for your chosen market.
This can be tackled in a number of ways- either you could use it in depth to really talk through your recommendations based on the reading or you could use it to summarise your recommendations from part one. You could create two models; for the brand in the UK and compare this with your proposed approach or just use it once to talk about recommendations for your target market.
3. Identify which brand elements to adapt and which to retain and again justify your choices. Support your discussion and recommendations with examples.
Referring back to your brand personality what are your choice of brand elements, are you retaining or adapting them and justify your decisions, ideally with evidence if you can include it. This section gives you the scope to be really creative and professional as long as you have completed the first two sections well. You can create images here if they support your ideas. If it is easier / uses less words you could create this as a table.
Create an individual poster
Your poster needs to present visually your suggested recommendations for Halcyon Days’ overseas brand expansion.Your suggestions and recommendations must be supported by two or three key brand building theories. The poster will support your report and demonstrate your ability to fuse theory with a creative approach to branding.
You can use visual images and other means to illustrate your main suggestions (note: if using images from the Internet you must demonstrate that these images are not protected by copyright).
TOP TIPS
• Self-explanatory
• Make it really obvious which is your chosen market
• Include your name
• Marks for creativity and professionalism – show off if you have really creative ideas
• Not an assignment – not too text heavy
• Applied theory
• Choose the theories you are demonstrating – positioning, CBBE and personality
• A2 maximum – can be smaller

Measuring Crime and Victimization
Consider the following scenario:
John Mathews drove while intoxicated and caused an accident. An elderly couple was seriously injured in the wreck. The couple was hospitalized for several weeks, and was in physical therapy for one year after the incident. John however had received only minor injuries.
John has a previous history of drunk driving. He had joined the alcoholic anonymous groups to get over alcoholism but that has been of no help. After leaving the group, he again went back to drinking. He has earlier been involved in drunken driving accidents and has been on probation for causing these accidents and causing injury to people.
What would be the fair criminal justice sentence to John and why? Be objective and consider the rights of the elderly victims in this case.
Conduct research to ascertain the recidivism rates for drinking and driving. Also, find out how many people are killed each year by drinking and driving. Are the current laws effective or should they be modified? What changes to the laws would you make?
What are the financial and psychological impacts of victims in these types of cases? What are the financial and psychological impacts for the family members of the victims?
Discuss key issues in objectivity through the analysis of the case scenario. Should a victimologist with a minor history of drug or alcohol abuse be asked to evaluate the victims in this case? Why? Support your rationale with examples or situations that you have experienced in real life.
Submit your answers in 2–3 pages Microsoft Word document.
Support your responses with examples.
Cite any sources in APA format.

Will I Compromise My Ethics?
Will I Compromise My Ethics?
After reading and viewing the material for the session on ethics, you should have a clear idea of how culture and ethics are intertwined. Ideally your code of ethics should match the code of ethics that your profession and company/business/organization have. The culture of your organization should mesh well with your code of ethics and the actual ethical behaviors that are exhibited in your organization. To a great degree these codes should reflect the broader ethical standards that are a part of the culture in which you live.
How would you describe the culture in your organization?
Does this culture reflect the ethics of the leadership of the organization?
Do your ethics fit into the ethics of the culture in your organization?
Are there any ethical behaviors in your organization with which you do not agree and if so – are you willing to defy those behaviors? Example?
Have you ever been asked – and refused to do some specific thing that you thought was unethical – Example?
Have you witnessed ethical misconduct at work? What, was it and did you do anything about it?
MUST ANSWER – Do You Think It Pays to be Ethical? Support your answer with a good example.
