Question

Which of the following is NOT a proactive hiring procedure? a. ​conducting background investigations on prospective employees b. ​learning how to interpret responses to inquiries of references about job candidates c. ​thoroughly checking references provided d. ​instilling in employees a desire to develop ethical awareness and courage to do the right thing

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": ​instilling in employees a desire to develop ethical awareness and courage to do the right thing.

Explanation:

Proactive hiring procedures are practices performed by the Human Resources (HR) Department of a company by which prospective employees are contacted not necessarily when there is an opening in the company but to establish a relationship with those individuals.  

Thus, ​instilling in employees a desire to develop ethical awareness and courage to do the right thing is an activity developed when people are already hired in a firm. Then, it is not part of proactive hiring.
