Help - Make Project Plan Predictive?

[Emes]

Would some one please help..? I need these answers for an interview I am scheduled for in 2 days...

1. How does one make a project work plan predictive, predictable and flexible?

2. Specifically, non-philosophically and non-metaphysically, how do we use MS Project (03 or 07) to create a task list/WBS that is predictive, predictable and flexible?

3. How can one use MS Project (03 or 07) to create a risk matrix and trace the risks back to the tasks/WBS?

Thanks.

... non-philosophically and non-metaphysically ...

lol... That should go without saying in a job interview setting. If a participant can't be serious there, it doesn't bode well for the job.

Sorry, but I draw the line at helping people with "homework".

Thanks for your time and the reply John. You are absolutely correct about being serious on the job, but the only answers I was able to elicit from people on the question of making a project predictive and flexible were all "philosophical" rather than real and down to earth.

we can't help you out because that questions want to test your abilities if you can handle the job. so if i were you, try to recall your skills

Thank you all in this forum very very much for all your help. Had the interview and it went extremely well. Landed the project. Couldn't have done it without you all.
