TASK
This role play of recruitment and selection gives me valuable information about important of

and my friend taken help of YouTube. With this, I have learned about facial expression, level of
vocal tone and about body language. I was lacking in role play as it was new for me. In order to
properly elaborate reflection regarding role play, John’s reflection cycle is used in this project
report.
