CASPer Test Prep 2022 With Complete SolutionsWhat are the steps I should follow before answering a question? Answer- BEFORE
- Read the question twice. - Gather the facts.
DRAFTING
- Remain purely objective. Your response should be non-judgemental, non-
confrontational, and you should not jump to conclusions. "First, I will remain objective, non-judgemental, non-confrontational, and not jump to any conclusions."
- If applicable, mention holding a private conversation with the individual to gather all facts. This should be done in a non-accusatory and polite manner. - Have a general concern for the wellbeing and safety of all people involved. - Act accordingly based on the evidence presented.
- Final decision will solely be based on the evidence and my expertise, and not based on personal backgrounds.
Husband wants to get a promotion, wife wants him to take paternity leave. He believes work may not be understanding of his leave and he'll lose his chance at promotion.
1. Would you recommend he take paternity leave? Why or why not?
2. What strategies could you offer to help him make a decision that he feels comfortable
with?
3. Maintaining a work-life balance can be challenging. Why do you think people struggle
to find balance? Answer- 1. - As a friend offering advice on the situation, I would first make sense of the substance that is presented to me before jumping to any conclusions. - I would simply gather all the facts that I could on the matter by holding a private conversation with xyz, asking a series of questions regarding the policy and culture around paternity leave at work, his home life and if his spouse can accommodate such changes if he were to get the promotion, as well as his opinion on the matter and where his priorities lie. - Does he want to work his way to obtain the promotion to further support his family or would he rather spend quality time with his newborn and spouse than obtain the said promotion? - Based on his response to any of my former questions, I would then be able to provide a firm answer on whether or not he should take paternity leave.
2. - I would encourage xyz to gather facts than listening to hearsay. Instead of assuming that the same outcome would occur based on someone else's individual experience, he should take it upon himself to collect as much information on the matter as possible before jumping to a conclusion. Some circumstances can be very different from how others perceive them to be, so he should make an informed decision. - A possible activity for this strategy could be creating a graphic organizer with a table depicting the pros and the cons of both scenarios. From there, he can visually see which option brings more pros than cons and vice-versa. - Further, he should consult his priorities. In the grand scheme of things, he has the liberty to choose the life he wants to pursue. It is solely up to him to decide whether he wants the promotion or to take paternity leave on the behalf of his spouse. He needs to take the initiative to talk to both his employer and spouse regarding the situation to solidify his decision. 3. Difficulty in work-life balance arises from all sorts of issues. Financial pressures, unrealistic or demanding expectations, poor time management, and technological innovations can all be key detriments that can make certain employees and/or managers question their career choice. Thus, the idea of returning to work happy and productive all the time as per the company's standards can be very difficult when experiencing such drawbacks.
Consider a time you faced a difficult situation.
1. What was the situation and why was it difficult for you?
2. What would you do differently if you experienced a similar situation again? Explain your answer.
3. Do you prefer to deal with difficulty alone or by involving other people? Explain your answer. Answer- 1. - During one of my high school exams, my friend decided it would be a brilliant idea to sit beside me as they "felt more comfortable around me which would help their anxiety" from what they justified, so I accepted. - However, halfway into the exam, I noticed my supposed friend peeking at my work, attempting to copy my answers. - Promptly after noticing what they were doing, I started to cover my work with my arms.
Yet, it was not enough for them to stop. They continued to copy my work by occasionally turning their head when I moved down to a different question. - I could not verbally tell them to stop as talking during an exam is prohibited. I also did not want to risk my friendship with the said individual if I mentioned the incident to my teacher. Thus, I shrugged it off and suffered in silence. 2. - I would most definitely speak up for myself and let my teacher know about the incident. - Also, my friend's poor judgement call could have potentially jeopardized my education since plagiarism is not permitted -- both of us would suffer the consequences, although I
was unaware that it was premeditated.
