A candidate is concerned that some answers she gave during her interview were vague and lengthy. She relates some of the answers to a peer, saying I don't know what happened. I was just so nervous.
 
   What is an appropriate response by the peer? 1. Why did you give those answers?
  2. You should have given short and to-the-point answers.
  3. You gave good answers.
  4. I think your answers were specific.

Question 2

An ICU nurse manager prefers to utilize a results-oriented system when evaluating employees because:
 
  1. It allows for comparison between employees.
  2. The employee knows in advance what is expected.
  3. It is apparent when an employee stands out against peers.
  4. Not all employees are excellent and not all employees can receive an excellent evaluation.

Rationale 3: Long, rambling answers are not good answers.
Rationale 4: The peer should not be untruthful to the candidate.
Global Rationale:

Answer to Question 2

2

knows what is expected. This appraisal system is quantifiable, objective, and easily measured.
Comparative judgments measure employees against peers. Not all employees can be
excellent when being measured comparatively.
