Answer to Question 1

Saved me massive time.

Answer to Question 2

B
Explanation: B) If the HR manager hires the candidate because they attended their school, they are displaying in-group favoritism. If the HR manager hires the candidate because they are the best suited for the job, they can be accused of in-group favoritism by others who assume the school was the deciding factor instead of the candidate's qualifications.
