Answer to Question 1

Answer: B
Explanation: B) The interview process for many companies can involve multiple stages, including a screening stage, a selection stage, and a final stage. These interviews can occur in multiple forms, from in-person interviews to telephone calls, Skype calls, or computer-based screening systems.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: (1) Getting attention: The opening paragraph of your application letter has two important jobs to do: clearly stating your reason for writing and giving the recipient a reason to keep reading. (2) Building interest and increasing desire: The middle section of the application letter presents your strongest selling points in terms of their potential benefit to the organization, thereby building interest in you and creating a desire to interview you. (3) Motivating action: The final paragraph of your application letter has two important functions: to ask the reader for a specific action and to facilitate a reply. In almost all cases, the action you request is an interview.
