Question

Linda is the director of HR at Colette Value Inc., a large tax-preparation firm. The firm faces a dearth of tax preparers every year when the tax season approaches. Every December, Linda outsources a bulk of the recruiting process to an employment agency to recruit temporary employees before the tax season begins. However, she wants to do so without excessively limiting her final hiring decisions. Which of the following processes of recruitment should Linda carry out first hand?
A) Advertising for recruitment over the Internet
B) Preliminary screening of résumés
C) Designing the employment advertisements
D) Face-to-face interviews with finalists

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": Face-to-face interviews with finalists.

Explanation:

As Linda does not want to limit her hiring decision, she should let the employment agency to be in charge of the recruiting process but intervene in the face-to-face interviews with the finalists. In such a way, she will make sure that the agency is screening the correct applicants, and Linda, eventually, will have the final decision in the selection process.
