The Professional Manager magazine has an advertisement for management internships in a multinational automotive company, which produces iconic vehicles and has an international reputation. You are keen to apply.

The letter which arrived from the company following your initial expression of interest in the internship was encouraging. It explained how the work of the organisation stems from a set of core values, which involve all staff working together with integrity and understanding, and striving to achieve excellence in everything that is done.
The letter also asked you to send your CV and submit a paper to the HR department which will be used in the shortlisting process. The paper must:
• analyse the micro and macro environment of a named international business organisation of your choice (choose any organization you would like to)
• assess the benefits, opportunities and challenges of globalisation and international trade for a named organisation of your choice.
