The case has a difficulty level of level 5, appropriate for first year graduate level; six, appropriate for second year graduate level; seven, appropriate for doctoral level).

CASE SYNOPSIS What happens when the real world and the academic world collide? In a perfect world a legally defensible staffing plan for the merger of two companies requires a detailed step by step process as well as sufficient time and money to execute the process. In the imperfect, real world, designing a legally defensible staffing plan when money is tight, time is of the essence, and managers don't have the patience to go through a detailed, labor intensive process before making their selection decisions is another matter altogether. This case describes a detailed, step by step and by-the-book staffing process to create a legally defensible staffing plan. It is designed by someone who is known for creating expensive, thorough and time consuming processes that have never lost a challenge in court. When client concerns and constraints challenge that perfect plan the perfect world clashes with the imperfect world and students are caught in the middle. Their task is to modify the perfect staffing plan in a way that satisfies the attorneys who are looking out for the company's best interests and the management team who want to staff the new organization as quickly and as economically as possible so they can get on with the business of running the new business. Although not detailed in the case, instructors can incorporate the selection and design of behavioral competencies, role profiles and critical incident (behavioral) interview questionnaires and interviewing techniques into the case.
