"Dear Sir: Thank you for sending the resumes of the men you chose for management positions in your organization. They've taken tests, results have been processed and interviews are completed. Profiles of the results are attached, study them carefully.

The staff agrees, most of your nominees are lacking in background, education, and vocational aptitude for the enterprise you are undertaking. They don't have a team concept. We recommend you continue to search for persons of experience in managerial ability and proven capability.

Peter is emotionally unstable and given to fits of temper. Andrew has no qualities of leadership. James and John place personal interest above company loyalty. Thomas demonstrates a questioning attitude that would tend to undermine morale. We feel it's our duty to tell you that Matthew has been blacklisted by the Greater Jerusalem Better Business Bureau. James and Thaddeus definitely have radical leanings, and both register high scores on the manic-depressive scale.

One of the candidates, however, shows great potential. He's a man of ability and resourcefulness, meets people well, has a keen business mind, and has contact in high places. He's highly motivated, ambitious and responsible. We recommend Judas Iscariot as your controller and right hand man.

All of the other profiles are self-explanatory. We wish you every success in your new venture. Sincerely, Jordan Management Consultants.

Though humorous, this fictitious letter captures what most would have concluded about those Jesus chose. History, proved Jesus right!
