This score would be given by Anthony Cherwinski. For the section regarding showing up on time, the hiring team requires someone to show up almost every day on time. The section that talks about helping other students has a minimum of 3 points which correlates with a candidate assisting one peer in the class. The section on focus was rated at a minimum of a 5 because if a candidate is prone to looking at their phone or not focusing during class, they could potentially do that during the dinner, which would look bad to guests.

Having identified the risks, it is time to evaluate the likelihood that harm or loss will actually occur. This will help you identify the severity of each risk and what to do about it. Because risk is an everyday occurrence, you will not be able to eliminate all risk in any given environment. Instead, you will need to prioritize the primary risks and things you need to do in order to better manage them. In general, you need to balance the level of risk against the controls needed to manage each risk, in terms of money, time, and loss or damage. However, you should not take action (i.e. invest any resources) if it’s clearly disproportionate to the level of risk. In other words, you need to define an acceptable level of risk for each specific situation. The acceptable level of risk should depend on several factors such as the following: the threat and vulnerabilities, the sensitivity of data and its applications, the impact on the business; such as loss of revenue or the inability to continue operations, and a cost/benefit analysis.

Risk management allows contingency to be put into project plans, (APM, 2012) minimising negative effects and maximising the benefits of uncertainty.
