pertains to relevant elements of this role.
Please take a moment to review the following prompt and let us know if you have any clarifying questions.
Please send your completed task by the timeline communicated to you via email. In an effort to support
equitable hiring processes, our org anonymizes performance task deliverables for an identity-hidden review,
therefore, we ask that you please refrain from including identifying information on your materials, e.g. your

selected to move forward, we will reach out to schedule a next round interview with broader members of our
team. We look forward to continuing to get to know you better through this performance task and appreciate
your time at this stage of the interview process!
Task Directions 
Part 1:
The purpose of this exercise is to simulate an example of a typical Coordinator’s workload and expectations. A
Coordinator may be assigned across multiple projects, with different project leads depending on organizational
needs and capacity. Due to this, you may be juggling a handful of activities at any given time and will often
need to sort through incoming information to prioritize your work. Imagine today is Monday, June 24th and you
are reviewing your workload for the next week. Below are some tasks you have been asked to complete within
the next couple of days. 
1. The project lead for a project focused on career navigation has requested for you to connect with an organization consultant to schedule an external meeting. She has asked you to email the consultant and secure a
time for them to connect within the next week. 
2. The project manager for a project focused on competency-based education (CBE) has asked you to
clean up and send out notes from last week’s internal team meeting by the end of the week. 
3. You were invited to attend a webinar related to another project focused on AI which is taking place on
Tuesday, June 25th, but this conflicts with a scheduled check-in with your supervisor. 
4. The project lead for the AI project has requested you to take notes from the webinar on June 25th (see
video in part 2 of the task) and share out high-level takeaways with the internal team by Wednesday,
June 26
th
. 
5. The project sponsor for the AI project would like you to set up recurring meetings with the Vice
Presidents of Unit A and Unit B and has given you the contact information of their executive assistants
to coordinate scheduling. The meetings need to start next week and recur monthly. 
Based on the list of activities above, create a workplan for yourself for the next week (imagine today is
Monday, June 24th). This plan can be in whatever format you prefer (a bulleted list, chart, etc.), but should be
no more than the equivalent of one page. Within your workplan, please include the following: 
• The tasks listed in priority order, based on what you believe is most important and/or time sensitive. 
• The steps you would take to tackle each item. 
• Any follow-up questions you would have to complete the tasks successfully and/or better prioritize the
list.
In addition to your workplan, please provide a short description (the equivalent of one paragraph) to describe
why you prioritized the tasks in your workplan in that order. 
Part 2: 
Coordinators at our org are also expected to be strong notetakers and be able to synthesize information,
particularly for an internal audience, such as the leads of the projects which they are supporting. Please watch
this short webinar (https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/4ryrj9gbgr4vm2x0ohnbi/VIDEO.mov?rlkey=yd1idsisk5z30k6nie6mx0ndj&st=69ym0rad&dl=0) and imagine that you have been asked to take notes and gather relevant information for the
lead of the AI project. After watching the video, please draft an email to the project lead that includes your highlevel notes and takeaways (no more than one page) that you believe would be relevant to present to the
internal project team.
