Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer would be option B, Get information about the benefits they provide to their employees.

Explanation:

When a person applies for a post in an organization, it is better for him to have some useful knowledge about the working and atmosphere of the organization, so that he will be able to answer the questions according to the level of organizational environment. So the best way to have some information about the company is to get information about the benefits they provide to their employees. This will give you an insight into the fact that how they value their employees and how they treat them. For example, if you come to know that they provide medical facilities, over time allowance, day care service for the working moms, provide residence for employees hired from other cities, etc, then you will have an idea that they treat their employees well and there would be a calm and family like atmosphere when you will go to give interview. Other options are the ones which won't be so much helpful in knowing the organizational culture and won't give enough information about the company.
