I need a 300 word discussion post with the each numbered according to question.
1) When selecting external job applicants, HR departments often perform a background check on potential employees. They also ask for recommendation letters and a list of 3 references.
How effective you do believe those (recommendation letters, background check, and checking references) are in selecting the best possible employees?
2) Are recommendation letters objective? Why or why not?
3) What types of questions should HR be asking when calling a reference?
Please support your points with references (from your textbook, websites, etc.) Cite at least ONE outside source.
