An interview process has just been completed for an administrative position within a company in which you have overall accountability for recruitment and selection from an HR perspective. The interview process was in alignment with the recruitment strategy you have developed for the organization - you have no concerns with the process. However, the hiring manager does not want to hire the highest-ranking candidate because she mentioned during the interview that flexible hours would be of benefit to her given some "challenges" she has with daycare arrangements. This candidate, by far, is the best candidate for the posted position. The organization does offer "flex hours" to employees in certain positions. However, you must admit-flex hours in this position would be difficult. 1. Do you think it's fair that this candidate may not be selected for the position? Explain your answer. 2. What risk might the organization be exposed to if this candidate is not offered the position? 3. As the senior HR leader in the organization, how would you mitigate the risk? 4. Would a hiring manager ever be justified in not hiring a female applicant that has identified flexible hours are required as a result of daycare arrangements
