Reconcilers, Inc.
Re: Job Appplication
Allow us to introduce ourselves: we are Reconcilers, Incorporated.
We're a group of young teens who've formed this new partnership to help
advise people on how to go about reconciling with someone they've hurt.
And we understand that you are interested in a position with our firm.
The following application will help us decide if you are a fit for us.
Scenario #1: Jenni's Jealousy
Jenni's friend Maura just made the cheerleading squad, and Jenni didn't.
Maura's so excited about it she can't seem to stop talking about the
squad and the practices and the cute little uniforms. Jenni is burning
up with jealousy and stops talking to Maura. In fact, she doesn't speak
with Maura for almost two months! Jenni wants to make things right with
Maura. As an employee of Reconcilers, Inc., what would you suggest to
her?
Scenario #2: Mike's Mouth
Mike can't shut up! He blabs about everything anyone tells him. And
when Carson shares some really personal and confidential stuff about
his parents, Mike makes sure everyone in the youth group knows all about
it. Carson is really hurt and embarrassed. Mike feels terrible about
what he's done. As an employee of Reconcilers, Inc., what would you
suggest to him?
Scenario #3: Ryan's Rumor
Ryan's not even sure why he did it. Maybe it was because he was trying
to impress people. Whatever the reason, the damage was done now. Ryan
made up a rumor about Grace. He'd told people she'd had sex with a couple
guys he knows. And everyone believed him! Ryan doesn't think there's
any way he can repair the damage he's done without everyone hating him.
As an employee of Reconcilers, Inc., what would you suggest to him?
