1. A brief (maximum 100 words) introduction to the company
2. Company data which can be used to evaluate its success concluding with your thoughts about whether or not the company can be described as “successful”.
3. An outline of 6 to10 business reasons behind the success stated in a simple, straightforward way with a brief (4/5 sentences) explanation of each reason. Avoid strategy “jargon”; no analysis is required – this is a test of your broad business knowledge and understanding.
