Answer to Question 1

Answer: D
Explanation: D) Online interviews can range from simple structured questionnaires and tests to sophisticated job simulations that are similar to working interviews. These simulations help identify good candidates, give applicants an idea of what the job is like, and reduce the risk of employment discrimination lawsuits because they closely mimic actual job skills.

Answer: A
Explanation: A) Stress interviews test the applicant's ability to handle stress or unpleasant feedback. Strategies in this type of interview may include silence, criticism, interruptions, or hostile reactions from the interviewer.
