Thoroughly read Chap. 4 and the posted articles on the Syllabus to prepare for our class session on Thursday regarding hiring, employment, and labor relations. Then post a very specific, detailed discussion in your own words (no quotes) to answer ONE of the following three questions below in this Forum (be sure to identify the question you select and respond to):
- Q1: What types of questions would you ask job applicants during an interview to understand their ethics and integrity? List three questions you would include in the interview that will assist you in identifying these characteristics. How would you know they are being truthful, and that they will positively contribute to your workplace ethics?
- Q2: How do the following 'tools' seem to assist companies in selecting ethical job candidates who seem to value integrity: polygraph test, reference checks, and personality tests? Which, if any, do you prefer or would not use, and why? Does a labor union organization impact your choice of tools? Why?
- Q3: What does a company's job-screening process tell you about their company ethics, importance of business integrity, and corporate compliance culture (give an example using a SHRM resource)? What aspects of job-screening (including AI) do you consider 'unethical' and why (cite an ethical theory to support your response)?
Grade points determined based on: clarity of response to question, and using our readings as research references.
Note: Employer Sought Skills handout is listed on our Canvas page for fun … we will talk more about it in class.
During class, we will also talk about AI & employment/hiring, including an exercise to find a business or organization hiring "mishap" (one that no one has selected for discussion in the Forum) to analyze in class on Thursday.

Memos / Forums – Section Summary
Forums and Memos are due prior to the start of every Thursday class … before 3:30 pm
Weekly Memos and Forums require that you respond to my posted questions about the assigned chapters, readings, and to one another on some assignments. Your writing must be analytical, researched, and individually written 3 – 4 full paragraphs in your own words ( NO copied wording; NO quotes!)
Hint: Does your written discussion demonstrate: 1) your comprehension of the assigned readings, 2) your own edited analysis of the key concepts/arguments from the readings with corrected spelling and grammar, and 3) a Reference section at the end of your posting listing your cited text pages and external business news/website/other research sources in APA reference format (Wikipedia is NOT a permitted reference!)
Memos / Forums are Due: prior to the start of each class (submission portal closes at exactly 3:30 pm each Thursday) [NO make-ups, late, or emailed submissions!]
GRADING: 0 – 10 pts. each week's submission. Excellent and complete analytical writing uses clear references to the assigned readings without grammatical errors. Points are reduced for incomplete, vague, inaccurate, off-topic discussions and needed edits. Did you list your references at the end of your document – Author, Text/Article, pg. numbers used?? Copied or plagiarized memos = 0 pts and a discussion about academic integrity / referral to Office of Student Conduct (https://conduct.sfsu.edu/academic-dishonesty).
