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.

Answer to Question 1

2
Rationale 1: This response is only likely to increase the candidate's concern about the interview. Why the answers were given is not important at this time. The candidate has already admitted to being very nervous.
Rationale 2: The candidate should be reminded to keep answers short and to the point so as to appear competent and professional.
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
Explanation: 1. A results-oriented system evaluates an employee based upon outcomes, and the employee
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.
