WAEC Office Practice Theory Questions

  1. Read the case below carefully and answer the questions that follow. Larry Jone Ventures, Ikeja Lagos Miss. Pat Njoku attended a job interview as a clerical officer at Larry Jones Ventures, Ikeja Lagos in January this year.

Two of the questions she was asked were that she should state the two major types of office layout and two uses of a computer. She answered all the questions correctly and was offered employment. On assumption of duty, Mrs Labake Ojo, the immediate supervisor of Miss Njoku told her that her main duties were mail handling and filing. She then instructed Miss. Njoku to always file documents in their date order and that she must never come late to the office. Within two months of Miss Njoku’s assumption of duty, several complaints of missing mails were made by some members of staff. Although the senders provided evidence that the emails were received by Miss Njoku, none of the missing mail could be traced because she was in the habit of not making any entries about incoming and outgoing mails. It was also reported that Miss Njoku used to open all incoming emails before delivering them to their addressees. The Manager of Larry Jones Ventures, as a result of the complaints, employed Miss Grace Okoli as the new Clerical Officer and re-designated Miss Pat Njoku as the Receptionist.
