You are attending a training session on the principles that will help you do a better job of managing a new company-wide diversity program. You are going through an exercise in which you are given two statements and asked to pick the one that effectively illustrates one of these principles. Here is one set of statements:

Statement 1

You will be better able to increase the diversity of your workforce if you interview candidates with entry-level experience even though it might be ideal to hire someone with years of experience.

Statement 2

Remember to keep looking for the ideal candidate for a position. Settling for an applicant that lacks all the skills necessary to perform a job, but adds to the diversity of your workforce, is not ideal.

You should choose Question 1as the more appropriate strategy for managing diversity, since it is an example of Question 2.

Question 1 choices

• statement 1
• statement 2

Question 2 choices

• maintaining low standards
• maintain high standard
