Read the case study and select the correct answer (there is only one correct answer): For the past few months you’ve been working on implementing a new strategy across several departments. For the first couple of weeks, everything was fine and the team work was great – everyone knew what they were doing, all the goals and responsibilities were clear. But now it seems that all the deadlines are going to be missed. You’re trying to figure out what went wrong and fix it. What step of strategy implementation did you miss?
Тип ответа: Одиночный выбор • с выбором одного правильного ответа из нескольких предложенных вариантов

- Determining roles and responsibilities
- Providing continued support and monitoring progress regularly
Read the case study and select the correct answer (there is only one correct answer): In some cultures, what counts most is self-realization. Initiating alone, sweating alone, achieving alone — not necessarily collective efforts — are what win applause. In other cultures, group goals take precedence over individuals’ goals. Rather than giving priority to “me,” the “us” identity predominates. Of paramount importance is pursuing the common goals, beliefs, and values of the group as a whole. Question: Manifestation of which culture dimension is described here?

Read the case study and select the correct answer (there is only one correct answer): You are leading tough negotiations with your foreign colleagues. You feel that you’re losing ground and tensions start to rise. Everyone wants to finish and go home as soon as possible but you still haven’t come to any conclusion. Sometimes it feels as if you’re speaking a completely different language even though you’re all fluent in English. Question: Is there anything else you can do in this situation?
Тип ответа: Одиночный выбор • с выбором одного правильного ответа из нескольких предложенных вариантов
- We should just end collaboration with these people – it’s impossible to reach agreement with them so there’s no point in contunuing the conversation.
- You’re an expert negotiator so you just need to keep pushing until they see your point and agree to your terms.
- It would be the most useful to focus completely on the speaker and give them your full attention. You might learn something new and make progress.
Read the case study and select the correct answer (there is only one correct answer): You have written an essay for one of your courses, but your professor has returned it to you with a note that it is not “university-level” and that you need to work on your structure. Question: What do you need to change in your essay?
Тип ответа: Одиночный выбор • с выбором одного правильного ответа из нескольких предложенных вариантов
- Be more analytical – re-organize facts and information, name the relationships and create categories.
- Find other facts and information to present in the essay, instead of the ones you already have.

Read the case study and select the correct answer (there is only one correct answer): Your friend is getting ready for an important job interview and comes to you for recommendations. He is typically shy and closed-off but very experienced and could definitely bring value to the company he’s applying for. What would you recommend, how should he prepare for the interview?
Тип ответа: Одиночный выбор • с выбором одного правильного ответа из нескольких предложенных вариантов
- Let your experience speak for itself. If they don’t understand from your CV that you could be very valuable for the company, then this position is not for you. Short answers to the interviewer’s questions are completely okay, too.
- Before the interview, focus on feeling confident – this will help your face and posture look confident as well. During the interview, try to angle yourself towards the person – this way they’ll engage with you more – and maintain eye contact.
- You don’t really need to prepare much. You’re very experienced, you just need to dress sharply and sound confident and loud to prove to the interviewer that you’re smarter than them.
