Select the correct option.

• B. III and IV are correct
• C. I, II and III are correct
• D. All are correct

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

All are correct

• In the selection process of staffing, a lot of applications may be received by the organization, all these applications are to be studied thoroughly, examined and then few of the best applications should be shortlisted for the interview, as calling all the applicants for interview will take a lot of time and effort and will delay the work ahead.
  
• The candidates should be made to feel at ease in the interviews, because a nervous candidate though has the qualification and ability suited for the job may not prove himself properly, this will lead to loss of the firm.
  
• Irrelevant and irritating questions should be avoided as the candidate may not like the questions and do not answer them properly. These questions also lead to a wastage of time.
  
• While conducting the interview, the interviewer should be unbiased and impartial, he should consider all the candidates as same and examine them without getting biased. Personal prejudices lead to a decrease in the morale of the candidates and they may not come back for any vacancies again.

Hence, option (D) is the correct answer.
