The 10 marker I feel asked for too much, I mean 2 marks for relationship then 2 marks x 4 discussing operations and hr so how many marks is the ethical stuff worth on it? Felt like it was asking for at least 12 marks worth!
I completely agree with you. I wrote 4 pages. There is no way everything was going to fit on the 1 and a half allocated pages. I think they essentially expected you to go over, but didn't want to place 3 blank pages to overwhelm students.
The way I did it,
The first bit of HR and operations made the first paragraph.
Then 1 strategy to maximise operations. Brief sentence on how it maximises operations. An advantage and disadvantage in great detail. Then briefly in 3 lines link to how it can be conducted ethically and socially responsibly. (i.e, robotics can be used with solar energy technology)
-Repeat for second strategy
For HR, essentially repeat, but instead of the first brief sentence on how it maximises operations, link to how it maximises effective HR management. i.e. induction means greater staff attendance via having to be there for the induction process --> Greater knowledge of whereabouts for of staff for employers (effective management). Then proceed to your adv/disadv and the link to how induction can be ESR in the end (above and beyond via hollistic presentation to really introduce employees to the organisation)
-repeat for second strategy.
Like I said, me, a very good business student (just stating for the sake of the argument -not to be condescending prick), had to write 4 pages. Essentially I do not think they will mark the question very harshly. Allthough, they may decide to because it was generally the only "out there" question on the exam. We will have to see I guess.
