Hiring Decisions

Answer with minimum of 150 words total.

1 Suppose that an employer has a close working relationship with your college

and primarily recruits from there for professional positions.  What would be

the consequence of that recruiting strategy?  Would it tend to result in adverse impact?

2 In your judgment, is there a need for foreign nationals to perform work in the

United States?  Do existing laws regulating the employment of nonimmigrant foreign nationals in the Unites States strike the right balance between employers’ desire to tap this source of labor and protecting the interests of U.S. workers?

3 What policy would you recommend an employer adopt regarding use of

criminal history in hiring decisions? Why? Would the policy differ according to the type of job in question, or the nature of the conviction? If so, how?
