Answer to Question 1

Answer: C

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Staffing is the process through which an organization ensures that it always has the proper number of employees with the appropriate skills in the right jobs, at the right time, to achieve organizational objectives. Staffing involves the following activities: job analysis, human resource planning, recruitment, and selection.

Job analysis is the systematic process of determining the skills, duties, and knowledge required for performing jobs in an organization. It affects virtually every aspect of HRM. Human resource planning is the systematic process of matching the internal and external supply of people with job openings anticipated in the organization over a specified period. The data provided set the stage for other HR actions. Recruitment is the process of attracting applicants on a timely basis, in sufficient numbers, and with appropriate qualifications. Selection is the process of choosing the individual best suited for the job and organization from a pool of applicants.
