agencies that can do the job.

contract, usually on a six-month period. The entrepreneur can also opt to advertise job
vacancies via print.

candidate fo the job. Some established businesses even conduct qualifying
examinations in Math, English, and Logic before they hire an employee. Some
may give qualitative examinations or psychology tests that require the candidates
to answer an essay form or in multiple choice.
