Dashes are used instead of parentheses or commas in the sentence because of the following reasons:
-Parentheses are used to set off a participle word or words which can be omitted, but does not affect the whole thought of the sentence. In addition, parentheses could also be used to add a specific detail about the word beside it.
-Dashes, just like parentheses, are used to set additional information off. Dashes are commonly used if the words it enclosed already has a comma or commas in it, just to avoid confusion. In addition, dashes are more appropriate to use for interrupted sentences.

A. Parentheses are being used because they set off longer, less-related parenthetical asides.

Good luck on the rest! xx

Answer:

Usually employers will look at experience. If one candidate has more expereince than the other, they may be more likely to get offered the job. In addition to experience, schooling can play a big role depending on the job. It helps to have a good education or a specific set of skills that would help with a given job. During an interview, body language and attitude are crucial. If someone is kind and possesses quality social skills, while another person is quiet and hesitant to speak, the person who is more welcoming will have more of a positive impact on the interviewer.
